ATRAM, UnionBank trust units complete merger

THE MERGER between the trust units of the ATR Asset Management Group (ATRAM Group) and Union Bank of the Philippines, (UnionBank) has been completed following approval by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) and registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

ATRAM Trust Corp. (ATC) and UnionBank Investment Management and Trust Corp. (UBIMTC) have merged effective Jan. 9, with the former as the surviving entity and assuming all fiduciary and investment management responsibilities of the latter, ATRAM Group said in a statement on Monday.

“This merger brings together two institutions with complementary strengths and a shared commitment to fiduciary excellence. With the transaction now completed, ATC is well-positioned to deliver a broader range of investment, wealth and trust solutions while maintaining the highest standards of governance, risk management, and client service,” ATRAM Trust President Deanno J. Basas said.

The transaction is the first merger between trust corporations in the country, which marks the continuing development of the sector.

“The milestone reflects a strategic move toward scale, specialization, and strengthened governance, undertaken under close regulatory supervision and with a strong emphasis on client protection and continuity,” ATRAM Group said.

BSP data as of end-September 2025 showed that ATC held trust assets worth P369.95 billion, while UBIMTC had P106.84 billion. This brings their combined assets to about P477 billion.

The merged entity will benefit from ATC’s investment management expertise and diversified product capabilities and UBIMTC’s digital infrastructure and extensive client reach through its listed parent UnionBank, ATRAM Group said.

“This strengthened company enhances service delivery, expands fiduciary and investment solutions, and supports continued innovation across trust and asset management services,” it said.

“With the merger complete, ATC is reinforcing its leadership position in the Philippine market and setting a precedent for future consolidation within the trust sector.” — BVR

Taiko Makes Chainlink Data Streams Its Official Oracle

The post Taiko Makes Chainlink Data Streams Its Official Oracle appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Notes Taiko has officially integrated Chainlink Data Streams for its Layer 2 network. The integration provides developers with high-speed market data to build advanced DeFi applications. The move aims to improve security and attract institutional adoption by using Chainlink’s established infrastructure. Taiko, an Ethereum-based ETH $4 514 24h volatility: 0.4% Market cap: $545.57 B Vol. 24h: $28.23 B Layer 2 rollup, has announced the integration of Chainlink LINK $23.26 24h volatility: 1.7% Market cap: $15.75 B Vol. 24h: $787.15 M Data Streams. The development comes as the underlying Ethereum network continues to see significant on-chain activity, including large sales from ETH whales. The partnership establishes Chainlink as the official oracle infrastructure for the network. It is designed to provide developers on the Taiko platform with reliable and high-speed market data, essential for building a wide range of decentralized finance (DeFi) applications, from complex derivatives platforms to more niche projects involving unique token governance models. According to the project’s official announcement on Sept. 17, the integration enables the creation of more advanced on-chain products that require high-quality, tamper-proof data to function securely. Taiko operates as a “based rollup,” which means it leverages Ethereum validators for transaction sequencing for strong decentralization. Boosting DeFi and Institutional Interest Oracles are fundamental services in the blockchain industry. They act as secure bridges that feed external, off-chain information to on-chain smart contracts. DeFi protocols, in particular, rely on oracles for accurate, real-time price feeds. Taiko leadership stated that using Chainlink’s infrastructure aligns with its goals. The team hopes the partnership will help attract institutional crypto investment and support the development of real-world applications, a goal that aligns with Chainlink’s broader mission to bring global data on-chain.
