WeFund Lending Corp., operator of fintech lending platform JuanHand, has been recognized as a “Financial Advocate for Cybersafe Philippines” during the BusinessWorld Cybersecurity Summit 2026, held on July 21 at Hilton Manila, Newport World Resorts.
The award highlights JuanHand’s efforts to promote cybersecurity awareness and protect Filipino consumers in the digital lending space through partnerships with government agencies and public education initiatives against cyber fraud, scams, and illegal lending practices.
The summit, themed “Toward Stronger Digital Defenses,” gathered government officials, cybersecurity experts, technology leaders, and private-sector representatives to discuss the growing importance of cyber resilience and digital trust.
For JuanHand, this recognition reinforces its belief that advancing financial inclusion must go hand in hand with protecting consumers from emerging digital threats.
“As financial services become increasingly digital, our responsibility goes beyond providing access to credit. We also have a role in helping Filipinos become more informed, vigilant, and confident when navigating the digital financial ecosystem,” said Francisco Roberto “Coco” D.C. Mauricio, President and CEO of WeFund Lending Corp. “Cybersecurity safeguards access, financial inclusion transforms lives, and together they build a stronger nation.”
JuanHand continues to strengthen cooperation with government and law-enforcement institutions while advancing consumer education initiatives that help underserved yet creditworthy Filipinos recognize online scams, avoid fraudulent and illegal lending schemes, and practice responsible digital financial behavior.
The recognition further affirms JuanHand’s commitment to responsible lending, consumer protection, and a safer, more inclusive, and more secure digital financial ecosystem for Filipinos. That commitment remains ongoing.
