Our Vision
Our Mission
It is our vision to build an ecosystem of sustainable businesses that are catalysts for responsible development in the communities we serve.
What makes SM’s ecosystem unique?
We drive sustainable growth by linking our businesses. Our Integrated Property Developments act as
economic and social hubs— creating jobs, supporting local businesses and driving
inclusive growth.
What makes our business sustainable?
We plan for the long-term, factoring in climate and other environmental risks, as well as the needs of the many stakeholders who support our growth.
What does responsible development mean to us?
We focus on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) (particularly SDGs 3, 4, 8, 11 and 13) — areas where we can reduce risks and make the most impact.
Who are the communities we serve?
We touch the lives of millions of Filipinos every day — providing excellent service to our customers and creating opportunities for our employees, partners, Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) and host communities.
We are committed to partner with our host communities to provide a consistently high standard of service to our customers, look after the welfare of our employees and deliver sustainable returns to our shareholders, at all times upholding the highest standards of corporate governance and environmental stewardship in all our businesses.
What is our commitment to our customers?
We listen, meet and anticipate their ever-evolving needs, deliver innovative products and services to improve everyday life.
How do we support Filipino talent and our people?
We support inclusivity and equal opportunity, helping people build long-term careers while helping them achieve their personal goals.
What does upholding the highest standards of corporate governance mean?
We uphold strong governance through clear oversight, ethical leadership, robust risk management and transparent reporting aligned with global sustainability standards.
How do we live in harmony with nature?
We begin by helping our people see the impact of every decision — cutting emissions, promoting circular materials, building climate resilience and restoring natural habitats.
What drives our sustained performance?
Our diverse group provides financial strength from regular cash flows and a strong balance sheet. We manage our financial resources prudently, with the interests of all stakeholders in mind including providers of capital.
