Sealing a stronger partnership. Minoru Yagi, president of Shizuoka Bank Ltd, and Nestor V. Tan, president and CEO of BDO Unibank Inc., sign a comprehensive MOU to strengthen their business alliance.

To further strengthen their collaboration, BDO and Shizuoka Bank Ltd. have signed a comprehensive memorandum of understanding (MOU).
