Asialink Finance Corporation (AFC), one of the country’s leading non‑bank financial institutions, has taken a bold step toward shaping the future of Philippine mobility. In a contract signing ceremony at its headquarters, AFC formalized strategic partnerships with CBEV Transport Technology Inc. (CarBEV), VinFast Fairview, and PeekUp, signaling a major expansion of its electric vehicle (EV) and mobility financing portfolio.

This move underscores AFC’s commitment to making sustainable and accessible transportation a reality for more Filipinos. By aligning with innovators in EV deployment, fleet management, and ride‑hailing, AFC is positioning itself at the center of the country’s evolving mobility landscape.

The partnership with CarBEV, a Philippine‑based provider of EV solutions and fleet deployment services, will support businesses and fleet operators seeking commercial vehicle financing. With AFC’s backing, companies can now access tailored financing for electric fleets, helping accelerate the shift toward cleaner logistics and public transport.

Meanwhile, AFC’s collaboration with VinFast Fairview opens doors for Filipino consumers and enterprises to finance a range of VinFast EVs — from passenger cars to commercial units. This partnership is expected to play a pivotal role in driving EV adoption, offering practical financing solutions that make ownership more attainable.

The agreement with PeekUp, a homegrown ride‑hailing platform, extends AFC’s reach into the transport network vehicle service (TNVS) sector. By providing financing opportunities for driver‑partners and entrepreneurs, AFC empowers individuals to participate in the growing ride‑hailing economy, while also supporting the transition to more sustainable vehicles.

Together, these partnerships mark a strategic expansion of AFC’s transportation financing portfolio. The company aims to grow its auto loan portfolio by 36%, leveraging tailored financing solutions that meet the rising demand for EVs, commercial fleets, and ride‑hailing services. More importantly, the joint engagement positions AFC as a catalyst for empowering entrepreneurs, driver‑partners, and businesses with the capital needed to thrive in the country’s rapidly changing mobility ecosystem.

Asialink’s vision is clear: to broaden access to financing that supports innovation, sustainability, and inclusivity in transportation. By bridging financial solutions with emerging mobility platforms, AFC is not only expanding its business — it is helping pave the way for a cleaner, smarter, and more connected Philippines.
