• This requirement of the law means that no other lower courts, like the
Regional Trial Court (RTC) or Municipal Trial Court (MTC), can issue the
authority to the AMLC.
• Thus, if the closure was caused by reasons other than insolvency, the
provisions of the PDIC Law shall not apply.
DEPOSITIS EXCLUDED FROM THE COVERAGE
OF THE PDIC LAW
• 1. Deposit accounts which are unfunded, fictitious or fraudulent;
• 2. Deposit products constituting or emanating from unsafe and
unsound banking practices;
• 3. Deposits that are determined to be proceeds of an unlawful
activity as defined under the Anti-Money Laundering Law.
THE RULE ON JOINT ACCOUNTS?
• Regardless of whether the conjunction “and,” “or,” or “and/or” is
used, the account shall be insured separately from any individually-
owned deposit account.
• The claim for the uninsured portion of the deposit is a claim against
the assets of the closed bank. Thus, from its assets, a closed bank
should satisfy first the claim of priority creditors. Any excess may be
used to pay the uninsured portion of the deposits.
PRESCRIPTIVE PERIOD FOR FILING THE CLAIM
• Claim shall be within 2 years from actual take-over of the closed bank
by the receiver (PDIC).
• Hence, the use of the bank’s actual closure date as the reckoning
point for the filing of the claim is improper.
• Once the claim has been filed, the depositor may enforce his/her
claim within 2 years from the date of filing of the claim.
SPLITTING OF DEPOSITS
• Splitting of deposits within 120 days immediately preceding or during
a bank-declared bank holiday, or immediately preceding a closure
order issued by the Monetary Board for the purpose of availing of the
maximum deposit insurance coverage is punishable as a crime.
• Under the BSP's rules, banks are allowed to declare a bank holiday if
and when they can no longer service the withdrawals of their
depositors.
• Can the court stop the PDIC from pursuing an action which is allowed
under its charter?
• ANS: No court, except the CA, shall issue any TRO, preliminary
injunction, or preliminary mandatory injunction against the PDIC for
any action under the PDIC Charter.
DOCUMENTARY REQUIREMENTS FOR
INSURANCE CLAIM

with clear signature of depositor/claimant;
• 3. Photocopy of BIRTH CERTIFICATE from the Philippine Statistics Authority (For
depositors below eighteen (18) years old);
• 4. Original copy of a notarized Special Power of Attorney (SPA) for claimants who
