Globe Telecom president and chief executive Ernest Cu was recognized as the Philippines’ best CEO by FinanceAsia, a Hong Kong-based magazine.
Globe also ranked as the third Best Managed Company in the country and was cited in several other categories.

Globe also placed third in Best at Investor Relations, fourth in Best at Corporate Social Responsibility and sixth in Most Commitment to Corporate Governance.
The citations were based on a survey conducted by FinanceAsia involving investors on their views on which listed companies around Asia they consider to be best managed, with the best senior executives.

FinanceAsia is a member of the Haymarket Media Group and covers investment banking, capital markets and strategic corporate finance.
