Globe discloses the appointment of Mr. Juan Carlo C. Puno as our Chief Financial Officer (CFO), Treasurer, and Chief Risk Officer (CRO), with effect from 16 October 2024.
Mr. Puno, 39, is currently our Corporate Strategy Officer and Senior Vice-President for Corporate Finance. His 15 years in Globe and his previous roles have built him up to be one of Globe’s well-lauded leaders, as well as an expert in the fields of corporate strategy, finance and accounting, and investor communications. Mr. Puno has led and executed several corporate initiatives including the recent monetization efforts that strengthened Globe’s overall financial health. Mr. Puno has also played a crucial role in most of Globe’s transformational and significant mergers and acquisitions transactions as well as fund-raising efforts. Mr. Puno also provides advisory support to the wider group, acting as the CFO and Treasurer of 917Ventures, as well as holding the Chairmanship position in ECPay, among other directorship posts. Through these transactions, initiatives and key roles, Mr. Puno has brought significant value and external recognition to himself and Globe, further cementing his position as one of Globe’s key executives.
Mr. Puno has a degree in BS Management Engineering from the Ateneo de Manila University and has been a CFA charterholder since 2018. As a graduate of its Executive Development Program, Mr. Puno is also an alumnus of Kellogg School of Management in Northwestern University.
Mr. Puno will succeed the incumbent Ms. Rosemarie “Rizza” Maniego-Eala, who will be retiring to pursue other personal and professional goals. In her nearly 27 years of dedicated service to Globe, Ms. Maniego-Eala has been a driving force behind Globe’s success, guiding Globe through some of its most challenging periods and delivering trailblazing achievements that have shaped our organization’s future. Throughout her stellar career, Ms. Maniego-Eala has garnered multiple awards from regional award-giving bodies. In 2019, she won both the Best CFO Award from the Institutional Investor’s All-Asia Executive Team ASEAN Most Honored Companies, and the Best CFO for Investor Relations Award from the 9th Asian Excellence Recognition Awards. In 2020, she received the Asia’s Best CFO Award from Corporate Governance Asia’s 10th Asian Excellence Awards and in 2023, she was given the Best CFO (Bronze) Award from FinanceAsia’s Asia’s Best Companies. Ms. Maniego-Eala also completed the Advanced Management Program at Harvard Business School in 2023.
We take this opportunity to thank Ms. Maniego-Eala not only for her invaluable contributions, but also the leadership values she instilled not only within her team, but across the organization.
