Road to Financial Security and Lifestyle Wellness: Why Business Owners Need This All-New Debit Platinum Card
Beyond a means of payment, the RCBC Wealth Platinum Debit Mastercard card aims to elevate the customer experience with a lifestyle full of perks and privileges.
Starting a business is no easy feat, as growing competition and mounting costs threaten the longevity of a business. In fact, data from the local Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that the survival rate of businesses—particularly in the private sector—is threatened the longer the business remains in operation. Even on an international scale, the US Bureau of Labor and Statistics notes that only 25% of new businesses stay for over 15 years!
But even so, some businesses have defied the statistic—growing into conglomerates and well-loved legacy brands that have stood the test of time. The secret? Paving the way for the next generation of business owners through succession planning and business continuity.
“Succession planning strengthens the overall capability of the organization by identifying critical positions and highlighting potential vacancies, selecting key competencies and skills necessary for business continuity, and focusing development of individuals to meet future business needs,” the University of Washington explains. “Taking a holistic view of current and future goals, this type of preparation ensures that you have the right people in the right jobs today and in the years to come.”
More than long-term planning, businesses also need the right tools to help them achieve longevity. Enter Rizal Commercial Banking Corporation (RCBC)—one of the largest privately owned universal banks in the country that is trusted by millions of Filipinos—and its newest exclusive card: the RCBC Wealth Platinum Debit Mastercard Card.
Competitive Advantage of RCBC
As the 5th largest privately-owned universal bank in the Philippines, RCBC has been committed to providing the best customer experience, award-winning digital banking services, and pioneering innovations for over 60 years.

Cross-generational Old-money Families
