Philippine National Bank (PNB) marked a special milestone on Friday as it celebrated the 92nd birthday of its chairman emeritus Lucio C. Tan, with a heartfelt message honoring the ultra-bilyonaryo’s enduring legacy.
In a social media post, the lender extended warm wishes to Tan, affectionately known as “Kapitan.”
“On this special day, we extend our warmest birthday greetings to Dr. Lucio C. Tan, Chairman Emeritus of Philippine National Bank. May you be blessed with good health, happiness, and continued success in the years ahead. Happy Birthday, Kapitan!” PNB said.
The bank also paid tribute to the qualities that have shaped Tan’s remarkable journey.
“Behind every success story is a person with a clear vision, unwavering determination, and a commitment to making a difference,” it added.
Born on July 17, 1934, Tan has spent decades building one of the Philippines’ most prominent business empires, with interests spanning banking, aviation, liquor, beverages, real estate, education, and more.
His success has also earned global recognition. Forbes ranked Tan as the third-richest Filipino in its March 2026 Billionaires List, with an estimated net worth of $3.5 billion
