Top 10 Wealthiest Religious Organizations in the
Philippines
By Raden October 20, 2017 Top List 0 Comments

The Philippines is governed not only by the elected public officials but also by the powerful religious organizations.

The Catholic Church played a major role in the Philippines’ tradition, culture, and governance, but other religious organizations recently are getting
a big share of influence in the government, especially the Iglesia Ni Cristo.

Since these organizationsdos not pay taxes, it hard to provide accurate data on how rich these powerful religious organizations are, but based on
their infrastructure, influence, and reach, we can estimate their wealth with the aid of available data online.

There are hundreds of religious organizations in the country, but some are too small that we can ignore, especially the hundreds of Baptist and
Protestant organizations.

The following is the lists of top ten wealthiest and influential religious organizations in the Philippines.

1. Roman Catholic Church

Molo Church, Iloilo

The Catholic’s wealth is hard to estimate as it is not centralized. Each Archdiocese has its own investments in major Philippine corporations. The
Manila Archdiocese, for instance, has hundreds of billion-peso investments in Ayala Group, Philiex Mining, San Miguel, and other corporations.

It is safe to say that the Roman Catholic Church in the Philippines has an estimated net worth of around P1.2 trillion.

2. Iglesia Ni Cristo

INC Central Temple

Founded in 1914, the Iglesia Ni Cristo started from scratch and ended as the most powerful and influential religious organization in the country. It
owed its success to the Church discipline rather than God’s guidance.

The controversial Church has been involved in a number of government-related scandals, but because of its media influence, few had been reported.

Its intervention in government is no secret to many, especially during the election period where it practice block voting, denying members’ basic
rights to vote at will.

INC has the most maintained structures inside and outside the Philippines. It owns hundreds of real estate where its churches are built. Its central
temple in Diliman Quezon City alone is estimated to be worth around P3 billion. It owns the Philippine Arena, hospitals, and universities worth
billions of pesos. Having said so, the Iglesia Ni Cristo is worth around P900 billion.

3. Islam

Manila Mosque

Islam is the right term for Muslim’s religion, while Muslim is a term used to describe the people who are practising Islam.

Islam is the second-largest religious organization in the Philippines next to the Roman Catholic in terms of the number of followers, but its influence
is inferior to that of INC.

Although Muslim people are involved in many sectors like government and politics, and many businesses, the group’s financial management is not
as strict as other religious groups.

Islam in the Philippines has an estimated net worth of around P450 billion.

4. Mormons

Mormon Church

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saint, or Mormon, is not as influential as many on this list, but it is one of the wealthiest religious
organizations around the world.
