PRESIDENT Ferdinand Marcos Jr. is expected to announce his appointees to the Maharlika Investment Corp. (MIC), a corporate investment body
that will manage the Maharlika Investment Fund , at least around the middle of October, Finance Secretary Benjamin Diokno said over the weekend.
To clarify it once again amid recent rumors that he might leave his DoF post and lead the MIC, Diokno said “I did not apply, because you have to apply. I am the chairman of the Maharlika board, that is another position.” Diokno remained optimistic that the MIF would be fully operational by the end of 2023 and that the board has already met at least once.
