Reyes Tacandong & Co., one of the top professional services firms in the Philippines, marked its 15th anniversary with a grand celebration on August 4, 2025, at the Marriott Grand Ballroom, themed “A Night with the Stars”. The celebration brought together its 50 Partners and Principals, about 1,200 professionals, and special guests, notably leaders of RSM member firms from Singapore, Hong Kong, and Indonesia. It was more than just a gathering; it was a powerful affirmation of the firm’s journey and a bold declaration of its future.
A major highlight was the Admission to Partnership ceremony, where RT&Co. welcomed five new partners: Gigi Dela Cruz, Warlito Cardano, Judy Ann Aguinillo, Atty. Anton Lainez, and Atty. Emil Recuenco. Their promotion reflects years of dedication and a shared commitment to excellence.
Chairman Roman Felipe “Manny” Reyes shared reflections on the firm’s founding, emphasizing its core
values of integrity, respect, and putting clients first. He reminded everyone that RT&Co. was built to be more than just a workplace—it was meant to be a place where people could grow and lead with purpose. He added that RT&Co. offered “a different kind of firm, a home for those who believed in something more than just hierarchy” and gave people “room to grow, to be challenged, and to take ownership”.
In his closing remarks, Protacio “Cocoy” Tacandong, the firm’s Managing Partner and COO, reflected on the firm’s 15-year journey and the relentless spirit that has shaped its success. He emphasized the firm’s core belief in teamwork, highlighting that “we are all stars” and there is “no one man show”. This unifying message resonated deeply with the partners and associates alike, reinforcing the firm’s collaborative culture.
