Dear Ms. Mary Valene Cañizares,

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated Dec 01, 2021 03:40:30 PM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.

Your Request

You asked for the List of Small, Medium and Large Enterprises in Cebu Province and Cebu City.

Response to Request

We do not classify firms according to size either in terms of assets or the number of employees. As such, we do not have data on small, medium or large enterprises.  Nevertheless, you may request for the list of registered entities in Cebu Province. This will undergo regular processing, subject to applicable fees. 

Requests for the preparation of reports, company listings, and related information on SEC-registered entities require payment of processing fees as stated in SEC MC No. 3 (s. 2017) (https://www.sec.gov.ph/mc-2017/mc-no-03-s-2017-consolidated-schedule-of-fees-and-charges/; https://www.sec.gov.ph/forms-and-fees/schedules-of-fees), as follows:
Special Program fee of PhP1,000.00; and
Computer processing charge of PhP4.00/minute.
 
Details included in the list are the following:
Name of Corporation;
SEC Registration Number;
Date Registered; and
Company Address.

Should you decide to proceed with your request or need further clarification/assistance, please feel free to coordinate directly with the ICT Department’s Ms. Joy Paquiz (mjmpaquiz@sec.gov.ph). 

As for information on the assistance provided to MSMEs, you may want to conduct independent research on this as we also do not have the related information, particularly that the same involves different government agencies, at the national and local government levels.

Your right to request a review 

If you are unhappy with this response to your FOI request, you may ask us to carry out an internal review of the response by writing to Chairperson Emilio B. Aquino through email address ebaquino@sec.gov.ph. Your review request should explain why you are dissatisfied with this response, and should be made within 15 calendar days from the date when you received this letter. We will complete the review and tell you the result within 30 calendar days from the date when we receive your review request. 

If you are not satisfied with the result of the review, you then have the right to appeal to the Office of the President under Administrative Order No. 22 (s. 2011).

Thank you.

Respectfully,

Violeta Infante
FOI Receiving Officer
