The Philippines’ state-run sovereign wealth fund, Maharlika Investment Corp (MIC), has raised its full-year earnings target to P3.3 billion for 2026, driven by accelerated capital deployment and a growing portfolio of new investments.

The fund reported core income of P1.24 billion for the first half of the year, setting a strong foundation for the revised outlook.

The P1.24 billion first-half result underscores the fund’s growing profitability as it moves beyond its initial setup phase into active, large-scale investment management.

MIC Vice President for Finance highlighted that the increased guidance reflects the fund’s ability to scale operations and secure higher-yielding assets.
