Digital bank and e-wallet operator Maya says it is preparing for a possible initial public offering (IPO) in 2027, according to its chair Manuel V. Pangilinan. He adds that preparations remain “on track” as the company works toward becoming a publicly listed firm.
Both reports note that Maya’s timeline is linked to competitive pressures in the Philippine fintech market. In particular, they say rival GCash appears poised to list first on the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE), which could affect Maya’s positioning and timing. The outlets frame Maya’s comments as outlining internal progress rather than announcing a finalized listing date or filing. Neither source provides additional specifics such as the expected size of the offering, the number of shares to be sold, or the regulatory milestones involved.
Overall, the coverage centers on Maya’s stated intention to pursue a 2027 IPO while acknowledging that GCash may debut earlier.
