Wazzup Pilipinas!?
The Social Security System (SSS) has announced the appointment of Commissioner Robert Joseph M. De Claro as its new Officer-in-Charge, effective October 11, following the resignation of Rolando Ledesma Macasaet earlier this month. The decision was made by the Social Security Commission (SSC), the policymaking body of the SSS.
De Claro, who has served on the SSC since January 11, 2023, representing the Employers' Group, brings a strong background to the role. As a Commissioner, he chaired the IT and Collection and Contribution Committee and participated in key committees covering audit, risk, investment, and governance.
In addition to his new role, De Claro has been a member of the board of UnionBank (UBP) and UnionBank Investment and Trust Corp. (UBIMTC) and a member of its Executive Committee (ExCom), Governance and Risk Committees since 2023. His experience in the financial and corporate sectors adds a valuable perspective to his leadership of the pension fund.
De Claro’s professional background spans over 32 years, including executive roles in both the public and private sectors.
De Claro began his career at Nestlé Philippines in 1993, eventually holding international positions as an Expatriate (OFW) in Australia and at Nestlé’s headquarters in Switzerland.
With his broad leadership experience across multiple industries, De Claro is well-equipped to lead the SSS in advancing its mandate of providing comprehensive social security protection to Filipinos.
