It is not the critic who counts, the credit belongs to the man who is actually in the
arena, who strives valiantly; who errs and come short again and again; because there is
no effort without error and shortcomings. – Theodore Roosevelt—

CHAPTER 4
BANK SUPERVISION AND EXAMINATION
The bank examination and supervision is done internally and externally. This is
undertaken to insure the safe and efficient operations of any bank. The external
supervision comes from agencies of the government and is not in any way connected
with banks management. This is done to ensure that they conduct their business
properly and lawfully.
Purposes:
a. To find out whether banks are doing their business in conformity with the
banking laws and that of the rules and regulation of the central bank and other
government agencies.
b. Determine how soundly the bank I financially. The examiners should establish
the fact that the bank owns the assets, that the titles to property are good, that the
assets are properly valuated in the books, and that they are of acceptable quality.
c. Examination is more for discovering the unsound and unsafe practice and to offer
remedies or solutions for such practice. Some of such practices are granting of big
loans to a single interest, receiving collaterals of inferior quality, laxity in
collection of loans, payment of excessive salaries of dividends, keeping
incomplete or inaccurate records and payment of unreasonably high rate of
interests on time deposits. These practices serve to jeopardize not only the
stockholders but also the depositor’s interest.
External Supervision
In the Philippines, the Supervision and Examination Sector of the Bangko Sentral
is charged with responsibility of conducting spot and regular checks on all banking
institutions. It is therefore, a vital arm of the Bangko Sentral. It is headed by a Deputy

BSP shall pay to the BSP, within the first thirty (30) days of each year, an annual fee in an
amount equal to a percentage prescribed by the Monetary Board.
Sec.29 Appointment of Conservator. Whenever on the basis of the report submitted by the
appropriate supervising or examining department, the Monetary Board finds that a bank
or a quasi-bank is in a state of continuing inability or unwillingness to maintain a

the institution can operate on its own and the conservatorship is no longer necessary.
The conservatorship is likewise terminated, should the Monetary Board, on basis of the
report of the conservator or of its findings, determine that the continuance in business of
the institution would involve probable loss to its depositors or creditors or creditors, in
which case the provision of Sec.30 shall apply.
Sec.30 Proceedings in Receivership and Liquidation. Monetary Board finds that a bank or

(200,000) or by imprisonment of not less than (2) years or not more than (10)
years, or both.
Mechanics of Examination
-Bank examiners examine bank’s books at any time during banking hours.
Examiner takes possession of the banks books and documents which are owned by the
bank or pledged by debtors as collaterals. Analysis involves the classification of assets as
to quality, valuation, and assurance that everything is in order. This would lead to the
conclusion on how efficient the management is and on how effective the policies are. If
there are any violations, immediate steps are suggested and are taken up to correct the
banks position.
Programming of Controls
a. Embezzlement – the taking of funds that belongs to depositors and customers.
b. Defalcation – the misappropriation of funds which belongs to stockholders such as
income, fees, and commissions or through fictitious notes or fraudulent expense
vouchers.
c. Peculation- would mean all kinds of embezzlement, defalcation, or
misappropriation of funds.
d. Examination- the review and analysis of the assets and liabilities of a bank to
determine their existence, values and true ownership, and to ascertain that
everything in regard to said assets and liabilities is in order.
Causes of Peculation
1. Gambling- simply a recreation then it becomes a habit and finally a status symbol
that must be maintained.
2. Pride and Envy – A man working in a bank consumed by pride and envy will do
most everything to get even.
3. Living beyond ones income– keeping up with rich neighbors and thus spending well
beyond one’s income could also lead to embezzlement.
4. Unsound salary policies- the rising prices without commensurate salary
adjustments may invite one to commit peculation.
5. Poor employee relations- officers may look down on their subordinates and even go
to the extent of emphasizing this cleavage between them in public places.
6. Immorality- bank officers and employees are not free from temptation to commit
crimes against morality.
“No matter how far you travel, you can never get away from yourself”
-Haruki Murakami-
CHAPTER 5
BANK CREDIT INSTRUMENTS
Credit takes place when there is the creditor’s belief or faith in the borrower’s
willingness and ability to pay. Hence the borrower can command in exchange for
a written or oral promise to pay either money or goods.
The banks use negotiable documents in plying their trade and the most common
of these are the bills of exchange, the promissory note, and the check. However,
not all instruments used by the banks are unlimited acceptance.
]
Promise to Pay
Promissory Note - is an unconditional promise for the maker to pay a sum certain in
money to order or to bearer on demand or at a future determinable time. When the note
is secured, it is called a collateral promissory note.
Banker’s Acceptance - a bankers acceptance contains the banks promise to pay a draft
that is presented to it for acceptance. To constitute the bank’s intention of honoring the
instruments, the word “ACCEPTED” is stamped on the face of the draft and it is duly
signed by the bank’s representative.
Letter of Credit – a letter of credit is also a promise of a bank to honor drafts drawn
against it or for its account. A bank substitutes its credit for that of the accredited buyer
and promises to pay the beneficiary or his representative upon presentation of a draft,
subject to the condition in the letter of credit.
Bank notes are practically like money the only divergence of the note from the
real money is the fact that the notes represent private bank credit rather than the
state’s credit.
The note is declared as legal tender either fully or on a limited scale.
Like money, bank notes are fiduciary in nature and their circulation is dependent
upon the credit of the issuing bank.
Bank notes however, necessitate final redemption into standard money.
Therefore, they merely represent the government’s notes.
The circulation of bank notes and deposits necessitates legal reserves. However,
where deposits are concerned,
Bank’s keep larger reserves because bank notes circulate longer while checks
drawn against deposits could immediately be presented for payment when
endorsed.
Deposits necessitate the use of the checks to circulate them; bank notes in
themselves constitute the means of payment.
In the case of deposits as well as in issuing notes, the bank becomes a debtor to
the depositor or the note holder.
Orders to Pay
Check - is the order of a depositor to his bank to pay a third person or himself a
sum certain in money on demand. Such is commonly known as a personal check.
When the bank’s cashier is the drawer of the check, it is known as cashier’s check.
When the manager of a business concern is the drawer, it is termed a manager’s
check.
NOW Account. NOW stands for “Negotiable Order of Withdrawal”. It earns interest
and account holders can write as many NOW checks as they want on the account. It
has a feature of a savings deposit as it earns interest. It is also like a current/checking
account as it offers depositors the convenience of issuing checks for payments.
Draft- is also an order to pay and is a bill of exchange. Drafts are classified as sight or
demand, time, commercial or bank drafts.
Time sight draft- is payable also after a determinable time but the counting of its maturity
starts from the date of acceptance.
Time date drafts- maturity is counted from the date appearing on its face, or the date the
draft is made.
1. Treasury bill- areshort-term securities issued by the country’s treasury. The bill
consists of an obligation to pay the bearer the face value of the bill upon a given
date.
2. Banker’s Acceptance/ Letter of Credit- it I s a time draft and accepted bank. Before
acceptance, the draft is merely an order by the drawer to the bank to pay a
specified sum of money on a specified date to a named person or to the bearer of
the draft; it is not an obligation to the bank.
3. Negotiable Certificates of Deposit (NCD) – are liked fixed deposits except they are
bearer documents. They offer related rate of interest and are completely liquid
because they can be negotiated during the term of the deposit. Most NCD’s have a
term of less than a year. They usually offer rate of return higher than banker’s
acceptances.
Negotiation - means the transfer of the instrument from one person to another either by
endorsement and delivery, by mere delivery or by assignment. Such transfer will
depend on the tenor of the instrument, particularly to whom it is made payable, or to
what extent is the interest of the transferee.
- When the instrument is payable to order which means that there is a
specified name appearing the payee, the instrument is negotiated by
endorsement and delivery. When, however, the instrument is made
payable to bearer, which, means that there is no specified name as
2. The holder obtains possession of the instrument before it has become past due
and even without notice that it was previously dishonored.
3. The holder took the instrument in good faith and for value.
4. At the time it was negotiated to the holder, no defects in instruments or title were
detected.
Presentment - means the exhibiting of the instrument at the bank either for payment or
for acceptance. The check should be presented for payment within a reasonable period
of time after its issue according to the Negotiable Instruments Law.
Dishonor - means that the check is refused payment or a time draft is refused
acceptance. The refusal therefore may be termed dishonor by non-payment or non-
acceptance. If this happens, the holders of the instrument may file a protest in writing or
orally. The law prescribes the way a protest is to be made.
“Let the Lord fight your battles, deal with your problems and direct your direction.
When you have done your best, trust the Lord to do the rest.”
CHAPTER 6
BANK REPORTS
Bank reports - are rendered to meet with requirements of the supervisory and
regulatory agencies.
Sec.59. Authority to Regulate Electronic Transactions – the Bangko Sentral shall have full
authority to regulate the use of electronic devices, such as computers, and processes of
recording, storing and transmitting information or data in connection with the
operations of a bank, quasi-bank, or trust entity, including the delivery of services and
products to customers of such entity.
Sec.60 Financial Statements – every bank, quasi-bank, or trust entity shall submit to the
appropriate supervising and examining department of the Bangko Sentral financial
statements in such form and frequency as may be prescribed by the BSP. Such
statements shall show the actual financial condition of the institution.
Sec.61 Publication of Financial Statements – Every bank, quasi-bank, or trust entity shall
publish a statement of its financial condition, in English or Filipino, at least once every
quarter in a newspaper of general circulation in the city or province where the principal
in the case of domestic institution, or the principal branch or office in the case of a
foreign bank.
The Monetary Board may allow the posting of the financial statements of a bank,
quasi-bank, or trust entity in public places it may determine in lieu of the publication,
required in the preceding paragraph, when warranted by the circumstances. The
Monetary board, by a vote of at least five (5) of its members, in special case and upon
application of the bank, quasi-bank or trust entity allow such quasi-bank or trust
company to defer for stated period of time the publication of the statement of financial
condition required herein.
Sec.62 Publication of Capital Stock – A bank, quasi-bank or trust entity incorporated under
the laws of the Philippines shall not publish the amount of its authorized or subscribed
capital stock without indicating at the same time with equal prominence, the amount of
its capital actually paid up.
2. Real bank statement – usually in more detailed form and is prepared for the
regulatory and supervisory agencies. It is also the basis for the preparation of
other reports.
3. Annual reports- some banks offers a “progress report” which contains the resume
of its yearly operation usually in brochure form. Such reports are made available
to the general public as means of advertising. Such report contains the “focal
points” in the bank’s progress. The addition of a new building, the setting up of
branches and the like may be stressed in the brochure through “write-ups’’ or
pictorial reporting.
The Bank Statement – serves to underscore the bank’s position at certain periods of
time.
1. Cash on Hand - this account represents notes and coins held by the bank to meet
depositor’s withdrawals and other normal cash needs. Such cash may be in the
bank values and/or in the hands of the tellers.
2. Other Cash Resources – comprises of (a) exchanges for the clearing house, (b)
collections in transit, and (c) other cash items. Such detailed classification is
necessary as it reflects different aspects of liquidity in relation to the bank’s
immediate cash needs.
c. Other Cash items – this account may include other miscellaneous items such as
bond coupons for which the depositors have been credited pending collection
of the coupon. Or, in the case where not all banks are members of the clearing
house, the checks or drafts where not all banks are members of the clearing
house, the checks, or drafts may represent claims against non-member banks.
3. Due from Bank- this represents deposits carried with other banks, usually in the
form of demand deposit.
4. Balances with Foreign Banks – this consists of deposits or funds held abroad mainly
to fill foreign exchange needs.
5. Loans and Discounts – this account is a major item on the banks asset side. It
consists of all promissory notes and bills of exchange held by the bank evidencing
the existence of a debt or securing a debt. Promissory notes mat either be secured
or unsecured.
6. Government Securities – another major item which will serve to buffer any
probable loss of the depositor. It consists of the evidences of indebtedness fully
guaranteed by the Republic of the Philippines in the form of bonds and other
instruments of similar nature.
7. Other securities-This will represent the stocks and bonds or short-term investments
not fully guaranteed by the Philippine government. The securities may belong to
private corporations.
8. Bank Building, Furniture and Fixture- this item represents the monetary value of the
properties owned by the bank to carry on its functions.
9. Other Real Estate Owned- this account arises out of the fact that banks foreclose real
estate mortgages and carry the monetary value of the asset in their books until the
real estate is disposed of. This transaction happens when banks are to accept real
estate as security for loans which turn out to be unpaid.
10. Customer’s Liability under Letters of Credit–bank statements carry in their books an
account representing the customer’s obligation to reimburse the bank by virtue of
the bank’s commitment to substitute its credit for the borrowers by honoring
drafts drawn against it.
11. Customer’s liability Under Acceptances – this is similar to the customer’s liability
under letters of credit except that the banks obligation in this regard is of greater
magnitude. When the bank accepts a draft, it in effect promises to pay the draft
upon presentation.
12. Income accrued but not yet collected – when a bank grant loans with interest
collected at maturity, the bank in effect has future earnings which as yet haven’t
been collected. The interest runs during the entire period. In the case of bond
interest payment accrue but may not as yet be collectible. Hence, such accrue are
considered as bank resources, since eventually they will be realized.
13. Other Assets – This item serves to round-up any or all other assets not otherwise
described in detail.
Bank Liabilities
A. Liabilities
2. Time Deposits- represent claims of depositors who keep their money in the
bank for a specified period of time and for which the bank must likewise be
ready to pay at maturity.
4. Cashier’s check outstanding – the bank’s cashier, in his official capacity as such
issues checks to either pay the bank’s obligations, to accommodate customer,
or to remit funds.
5. Certified checks outstanding – when the depositors request the bank to certify
his checks, the bank then sets aside the amount of checks by debiting the
depositors account before stamping certification on the face of the check. Upon
certification, the bank assumes the obligation of honoring the check. Therefore
makes the instrument more acceptable.
7. Letters of credit outstanding – This account arises out of the issuance of letters of
credit for which the bank obligates itself to pay or guarantee payment. The
bank has a right of recourse against the customer whose credit it substitute.
9. Bills payable – This represents the claims of creditors of the bank for funds
borrowed by it.
10. Rediscounted notes – arises out of the used of the endorsed commercial papers
for the purpose of procuring funds. Commercial papers serve as security and
the banks endorsed thereon establishes its obligation in case the primary
debtors fail to pay. Commercial banks discount their notes with the BSP when
they run out of loanable funds or for some other need.
11. Discounts collected but not yet earned – when the bank gives out a loan and
collects interest in advance, the amount deducted is not yet really earned in
full.
12. Other liabilities – this account serves as the counterpart of the “other assets”
and includes all other liabilities not otherwise designated in detail.
B. Reserves
1. Reserve for accrued taxes – tax payment cannot be ascertained thus bank set
aside amounts based on past payments.
2. Reserve for accrued interest – this represents the interest accruals on time
deposits as well as interest payments on money borrowed by the bank.
Interest on deposits is usually computed on the daily balances of depositor’s
accounts or in some other stipulated manner.
3. Reserve for accrued expenses - this constitute the salaries, supplies, and other
expenses estimated on the bank’s budget for the year. The bank builds up this
reserve by distributing the total amount on a monthly basis.
4. Reserve for depreciation on bank properties - this item represents the wear and tear
on the bank’s building, furniture, and fixture.
6. Reserve for contingencies – This will represents losses incurred by the bank
either through bad loans or investments. It may also cover the estimated
payment of pending lawsuits.
C. Stockholder’s Equity
-the accounts representing the stockholder’s equity sometimes termed as the
bank’s capital accounts. It is usually a “thin equity” compared to deposit liabilities. It has
been stated that a bank “trades on the equity”. Therefore the Banks net worth represents
how much the depositors could possibly recover in case of loss, not to mention the claim
of stockholders themselves.
1. Capital Stock – This account is carried as per face value of the total number of
stocks appearing in the bank’s Charter.
2. Surplus – may consist of earnings derived from the sale of stock above par or
earnings retained by the management from operations. The surplus account
usually acts as the “shock-absorber” for losses incurred.
The Monetary Board shall prescribe the minimum ratio which the net
worth of a bank must bear to its total risk asset which includes contingent
accounts. Monetary Board may require such ratio as the basis of the net worth
and risk assets of a bank and its subsidiaries, financial or otherwise.
A bank must earn enough to meet its expenses, to cover losses, as well as to
provide a return on the stockholders investments. A bank’s profit and loss
statement (or income statement) is singular in the sense that it deals mainly on
financial transactions and the accounts are confined to the sources of income and
the disposition of the same.
2. The ordinary layman is not conversant with banking functions, or perhaps even
with the banks, so he cannot understand the significance of the accounts
appearing in the statement.
3. The asset and liabilities are so combined as to make it possible to “look through”
or discover the real picture of the bank unless one is an expert in financial
statement analysis.
4. The real picture of the banks financial position as reflected in the financial reports
will depend largely on how the accountant estimates the valuation of assets and
how completely he enumerates the liabilities.
“Live in such a way that those who will know you but don’t know GOD will come to
know GOD because they know you”
CHAPTER 7
COMMERCIAL BANKS
Commercial bank - deals in multifarious functions and services. Bangko Sentral requires
P2,400.00 (in million pesos) as the minimum level of capitalization.
Thrift Banks
Head Office in:
2. Loan Function – It advances sums of money for relatively short period of time to
persons engaged in commerce and trade. It charges interest on such loans at legal

transfer of cash. Commercial banks deal in offsetting of book entries either
domestically or internationally. Credit instruments are used in effecting transfer

Banks Services
1. Rental of safe deposit boxes – valuables are kept in specially constructed vaults to
allow maximum safety from fire, burglary and other risks.

The major or primary source of bank funds is the contribution of stockholders and
sizable deposits. The banks will try their best to outdo one another to attract depositor.
While the stockholders are required to put in a minimum amount of capital as initial
outlay before starting their business, the degree of success of a bank with more deposits
would be very much better indeed. Furthermore, earning money on borrowed funds is
the very nature of banking business.
To augment its capital and deposits, the bank also has other sources such as
interest from loans and investments, collection and service fees, earnings on trust,
monetize, depreciation, and others.
“If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without
finding fault, and it will be given to him. But when he asks, he must believe and not
doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.”
– JAMES 1:5-6 -
CHAPTER 8
DEPOSIT FUNCTION
Deposits Defined
- Represented by money or representative money entrusted to banks for
safekeeping.
- The keeping of valuables such as jewelry and other important documents.
- Deposits are money borrowed and makes a bank a debtor.
- Deposits are liabilities of the bank, failure on its part to meet the depositors
demand will give the depositor’s right of recourse against the bank.
- Section 58 of the New Central Bank Law of 2000 (7653) which states that the
term “demand deposits” means all those liabilities of the BSP and of other
banks which are denominated in the Philippine currency and are subject to
payment in legal tender upon demand by presentation of checks.
Types of Deposits
1. Demand Deposits – are those which are withdrawn upon the presentation of checks
during banking hours. This type of deposit does not receive interest in modern
times.
2. Time deposits – are those which can be withdrawn after a certain period of time or
at a designated maturity. The depositors place their excess funds as rime deposits
for varied purposes. For this reason, this type of deposits is further subdivided
into the following:
a. Time certificate of deposits – this is evidenced by a certificate to the effect that the
deposit can only be withdrawn at maturity or after due notice of withdrawal,
usually thirty days, and upon presentation and surrender of the instrument.
b. Special time deposits- this type is evidenced by a written contract to the effect
that neither all nor part may be withdrawn before the maturity date or at least
upon due notice of at least thirty days.
3. Direct or primary deposits – are those which are made “over the counter” when the
depositor himself brings his money and/or checks and other near cash items to
the bank and hands them to the teller. Sometimes, the depositor may send his
representative to deposit for him. For e-bankers, depositors can deposit through
ATM’s after they have registered personally at the bank.
4. Derivative deposits – are created from the proceeds of loans. The borrower enters
into an arrangement that the bank places the loan proceeds under a current
account from which he can draw checks eventually. The derivative deposits
increase the volume of money because they represent new money created by the
bank out of proceeds of the loans.
Kinds of Depositors
The deposits may come from either individuals or businesses and from the
government and its instrumentalities and political subdivision. When funds are
deposited by individuals or businesses, these are known as individual deposits or
business accounts. If the government is the depositor, they are termed government
deposits.
The bank may also deposit money with other banks on reciprocal basis. These are
classified as interbank deposits. The banks are known as correspondents. Such deposits
provide for the exchange of funds between banks for varied purposes.
The deposits made by these depositors may be either demand or time pin conformity
with the method of withdrawal and according to the reason of the deposit in keeping his
funds in the bank. They may also consist of primary or direct deposits or derived from
proceeds of loans.
Motives of Depositors
1. Safety – the depositors place their excess funds in the bank because they are aware
that modern banks have fireproof and burglarproof safes and vaults to keep
money in.
The bank if relatively small sized, may employ a single teller system where one
teller performs both the receiving of deposits and the paying out of checks and other
instrument exchanged for cash. Each of the tellers assigned to specific jobs shall,
therefore, have their own responsibilities and duties.
Modern banks have acquired many new methods to improve service as well as
mechanized devices to step up the bank’s multifarious activities. Banks employ several
tellers in order to give maximum service benefits to their customers. Also, teller
functions are done through electronic devices such as ATM’s, phones, mobile and the
internet.
To a bank, the paying teller has a great amount of responsibility because his
negligence may lead to losses on the bank’s part. However, the teller who performs the
first step in the deposit function is the receiving teller; for it is he who accepts deposits
for and in behalf of the bank.
Receiving Teller
The receiving teller receives and verifies deposit items and deposit slip, gives
proper receipt for the deposit made, distributes the items deposited, and finally
checks and proves the day’s work.
Upon receipt, the teller examines the deposit slip to ascertain, among other things.
He also sees the detailed description of the credit instruments are in order. Then
At the end of the day, the teller sorts out all the items deposited comprising of
cash, checks, and other credit instruments ready for distribution to the proper
departments. As the teller performs the other functions, he fills in the proof sheet
indicating the deposits received and at the end of the day, he merely goes over the
same to see for errors.
In the receipt of the item deposited, the receiving teller exercises due care and
diligence in examining the cash and the credit instruments so that he may be
relieved of the responsibilities attached to his duties. In regard to the currency, the
teller is responsible for:
a. Errors in counting the money deposited.
b. Presence of mutilated or counterfeit money.
For the credit instrument that the teller receives for deposits, he has to be careful in
order to avoid responsibilities in connection with:
1. Postdated checks – checks which are dated after the date of deposit are known as
post-dated checks. The teller should not receive such checks for deposit as he
cannot be sure whether they shall be honored.
2. Stale checks – are those are dated very much earlier, say about a month, from the
date of deposit.
3. Material alterations – may be on the date, the amount (that is, the amount in words
do not tally with the amount in figures), the payee. The teller must see to it that
any changes made on the face of the instrument are properly initialed by the
drawer.
For both currency and credit instruments, the teller is responsible for:
1. Carelessness in adding deposit slips – this refer to proof sheets rather than the
individual deposit slip. It may be that the teller is not very careful in adding so
that the amount of deposits may not tally with the actual currency and credit
instruments.
2. Carelessness in designating the account to be credited – it may happen that there are
several depositors with identical names. The teller must see to it that the right
person is duly credited for the deposit. Careless crediting of proper accounts may
eventually lead to bank embarrassment or even loss. The teller should make it a
point to check the account number.
a. The date of the check- he makes sure that the check is neither post-dated nor stale. If
post-dated he must not pay, if stale he should likewise not pay but request the
person presenting it to refer the same to the drawer of the check. He also checks
the regularity of the date of the check.
b. Wrong endorsement- the receiving teller must be sure that the endorsement is
correctly effected at the back of the instrument.
c. Material Alteration- this refers to the erasures or change in the date, the payee, or
the amount in words and figures.
d. Forgery- this is the concern of the paying teller as he access to the depositor’s
specimen signature before payment.
e. Crossed check – are of two kinds, either crossed specially or generally. The paying
teller should scrutinize the check to determine the extent of the bank’s
commitment on such checks.
f. Stop-payment order – when a check is lost or for any other reason the owner wishes
to withhold its payment, the drawer requests the bank to stop its payment, the
bank provides a signal to indicate “Stop Payment Order”.
g. Insufficient funds – the paying teller must also determine whether or not the
drawer of the check has sufficient funds to cover the same.
h. Erroneous payment– A paying teller should count the money to be paid at least
twice. For he may overpay or underpay.
i. Supply of cash – a paying teller, through constantly doing the same work, should
be in a position to know how much gets from the cashier to meet requirements.
“There is no such thing as loss. There is only the opportunity to begin again.
CHAPTER 9
PHILIPPINE DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION (PDIC)
Role of PDIC
It is the 2nd pillar of support to the Philippine banking industry.

Sources of Funds
The principal sources of funds are the capital infusion of the government in the
form of a Permanent Insurance Fund (PIF) which is initially capitalized at P5
million, incomes from insurance premium assessments on member banks, and
investments in government securities.
1. PDIC shall terminate the insured status of a bank upon its continued failure or
refusal to pay the assessment, due semi-annually, computed by multiplying the
assessment rate as determined by the PDIC Board of Directors and the banks
liability for deposits.
2. First demand letter shall be sent to banks through registered mail. Interest charges
at the legal rate of 12% per annum, reckoned from due date/s, shall be imposed
upon these banks.
3. Failure to comply within 30 days after receipt of the first demand letter shall
constitute willful failure or refusal by the bank to file the required certified
statement and pay the corresponding assessment and interest charges. Then PDIC
shall send the second demand letter through registered mail.
4. Termination proceedings of the banks insured status shall start (30) days after
receipt by the bank of the PDIC’s second demand letter.
5. The third demand letter shall be sent to the bank through registered mail and

which is punishable by a fine not more than (P20,000) and by imprisonment of not
more than (5) years.
8. Failure of the bank for whatever reason to give written notice to the depositors
shall not in any way affect the validity and effectivity of the order of termination
of insured status against the depositors of the bank.
9. The insured deposits of each depositor in the bank as of the effective date of
termination, less all subsequent withdrawals/ debit adjustments from any
deposits of such depositor, shall continue to be insured for a period of (90)days
from the date of such termination.
10. The bank whose insured status has been terminated shall not advertise nor hold
itself out as having insured deposits unless, in the same connection, the bank shall
state with equal prominence that such additions to the insured deposit and new

the closed bank is not rehabilitated or taken over by another bank, can still be
claimed upon final liquidation of the remaining assets of the closed bank. The
claim may be filed with the liquidator of the closed bank after filing the claim for
insured deposits.
CHAPTER 10
BANK RESERVES
Primary Reserves
Consist mainly of highly liquid assets of the bank and its main objective is to
maintain the bank liquidity and solvency.
The bank keeps primary reserve in the form of non-earning assets.
A bank may keep primary reserve in the form of cash in vaults, deposits with the
central bank (legal reserve); deposit with other banks, exchanges or the clearing
house and checks for collection. These items may fall under the classification of
excess reserves, working reserves, or legal reserves.
The banks do their best to keep the right amount of primary reserves, not too
much to deny the bank income from investment neither too little to jeopardize the
bank’s position in the community.
Legal Reserves
Form part and parcel of the primary reserve. Sometimes alluded to as required
uniformly and without discrimination on all banks.
The BSP, being the monetary authority, has jurisdiction over all banks and,
therefore requires the setting up of legal reserves. Such reserves are kept at the
banks vault.
This reserve is usually a percentage of demand and time deposit, which may
either, be in cash or a combination of cash and highly marketable securities.
The function of legal reserve is to meet the depositors demand for cash.
The bank can only draw on these reserves from the BSP in cases of extreme need
to meet depositor’s withdrawals.
Republic Act 7653 (New Central Bank Act of 1993) as embodied in Chapter IV, Article
VII, entitled “Bank Reserves:”
Sec. 94 Reserve Requirements- in order to control the volume of money created by the
credit operations of the banking system, all banks operating in the Philippine shall be
required to maintain reserves against their deposit liabilities.
Sec.96 Required Reserve Against Peso Deposit – the Monetary Board may fix and, when it
deems necessary, alter the minimum reserve ratios to peso deposits, as well as to deposit
substitute, which each bank and/or quasi-bank may maintain, and such ratio shall be
applied uniformly to all banks of the same category as well as quasi-banks.
Sec. 97 Required Against Foreign Currency Deposits – the Monetary Board is similarly
authorized to prescribe and modify the minimum reserve ratios applicable to deposits
denominated in foreign currencies.
Sec. 98 Reserve Against Unused Balances of Overdraft Lines – in order to facilitate Bangko
Sentral control over the volume of bank credit , the Monetary Board may established
minimum reserve requirements for unused balances of overdraft lines.
Sec. 99 Increase in Reserve Requirements – the increase shall be made in gradual manner
and shall not exceed fourpercentage points in any (30) day period. Banks and other
financial institutions shall be notified reasonably in advance of the date on which such
increase is to become effective.
Sec. 100 Computation on Reserves - The reserve position of each bank or quasi-bank shall
be calculated daily on the basis of the amount, at the close of business for the day, of the
institutions reserve and the amount of its liability accounts against which reserves are
required to be maintained.
Sec. 101 Reserve Deficiencies - whenever the reserve position of any bank or quasi-bank,
computed in the manner specified in the preceding section of this Act, below the
required requirement minimum, the bank or quasi-bank shall pay the BSP one-tenth
percent (1/10 of 1%) per day on the amount of the deficiency on the prevailing 90 day
treasury bill rate plus 3 percentage points whichever is higher.
Sec. 102 Interbank Settlement – the BSP shall established facilities for interbank clearing
under such rules and regulations as the Monetary Board may prescribe. Provided, that
the BSP may charge administrative and other fees for the maintenance of such facilities.
Sec. 103 Exemption from Attachment and Other Purpose – Deposits maintained by banks
with the BSP as part of their reserve requirements shall be exempted from attachment,
garnishments, or any other order or process of any court, government agency or any
other administrative body issued to satisfy the claim of a party other than the
government, or its political subdivisions or instrumentalities.
Working Reserves
Another form of primary reserves, composed of vault cash in excess of legal
requirements and balances with other banks which are used to meet the
depositors demand.
The amount of working reserves varies in size depending upon several factors.
Excess Reserves
Are those over and above the legal reserve requirements. It could also be the
amount in excess of working reserves.
Secondary Reserves
Often alluded to as a bank’s next line of defense
Composed of earning assets which are easily converted to cash with the least
delay and without loss.
First major role of this reserve is to replenish the needs of the primary reserve.
If the cash is not needed, the next function is to keep a maximum percentage of
the bank’s funds invested in earning asset.
Quality of asset:
The asset must be of high quality, it must be in short duration and it must be
marketable.
Due to the close link between the primary and secondary reserve, certain factors
influence the size of the latter. Both are used to make sure that the bank meets the
demand of the depositor.
Investment Reserve
Is an economic rather than an accounting term as in the case of primary and
secondary reserves.
Assets which do not qualify for the first two reserves could conveniently be
deemed as eligible for the investment reserve.
1. The Monetary Board, in Circular No. 319 (resolution no.63 dated January 17, 2002) as
amended by MB resolution No. 163 dated 31, January 2002) approved the
reduction in the liquidity reserve requirement against peso demand savings, time
deposits and deposit substitutes liabilities of Universal banks and Commercial
banks, and Non-bank financial Intermediaries with the quasi-banking functions,
by 2 percentage points from 9% to 7%. The regular reserve requirement is at 9%.
From To
a.) For universal banks and commercial banks 10% 8%
b.) For thrift banks to remain at 4%
c.) For non-bank financial intermediaries
With or without quasi-banking functions 10%
8%
As we look back and wonder how we ever made it through, we realize it’s not because
we were wise, but because GOD has been good; not because we’ve been strong, but
because GOD has been mighty; not because we’ve been consistent, but because GOD has
been faithful to all His promise
