The meeting built on previous interactions between PHILGUARANTEE and KODIT, including Knowledge Sharing Webinars held in February 2023 and 2024. Additionally, both parties had met in past Asian Credit Supplementation Institution Confederation (ACSIC) conferences, where they discussed common interests and potential areas for cooperation.
