Fortune has unveiled its inaugural Southeast Asia 500 list—with 38 Filipino companies making the cut. San Miguel leads the pack by claiming a spot in the Top 10, landing ninth overall.

Prominent conglomerates and holding companies include SM Investments, JG Summit Holdings, Aboitiz Equity Ventures, Ayala, GT Capital Holdings, Alliance Global Group, Lopez Holdings, Filinvest Development, LT Group, and DMCI Holdings. These firms cover a broad range, from real estate to power and manufacturing.

The banking and financial services sector is also well-represented with BDO Unibank, Metropolitan Bank & Trust, BPI, UnionBank, Rizal Commercial Banking, China Banking, and Security Bank.

San Miguel joins a diverse set of companies at the highest rungs. While the top one, Singapore's Trafigura is a commodities trader, the next two—Thailand’s PTT and Indonesia’s Pertamina—are both from the energy sector. Other industries include agriculture, retail, and manufacturing. Singapore stands out with five companies in the top 10 and a total of 84 overall.

"The Fortune Southeast Asia 500 reflects a dynamic and fast-changing region—one whose core economies are growing notably faster than those of Europe or the U.S. This is partly due to Southeast Asia taking on far greater significance in the global economy, not least because a host of Global 500 multinationals have shifted more of their supply chains to Southeast Asian nations," Clay Chandler, Executive Editor for Asia at Fortune, said in a press release.

He also pointed out that five companies on the Southeast Asia 500 were large enough to have made the 2023 edition of the Fortune Global 500.
