Illustrative Cases:

Case 1: Single Account/s


Computation of Insured and Uninsured Amount: XXX

Explanations:

• All the four deposit accounts (i.e., Account Nos. 1 to 4) are owned by the same person, Juan Dela
Cruz, and maintained in the same Bank (Head Office and all its Branches), thus, the balance of the
accounts will be added together, as they are maintained in the same right and capacity, regardless
of account type and banking unit/branch. Total amount of insured deposit cannot exceed P
500,000.00, the Maximum Deposit Insurance Coverage (MDIC).

• Of the total balance of P 900,000.00, the amount insured is P 500,000.00 and the uninsured
amount is P 400,000.00.
Case 2: Single Account/s and Sole Proprietorship

Computation of Insured and Uninsured Amount:

Explanations:

• The first three deposit accounts (i.e., Account Nos. 1 to 3) are owned by the same person,
Juan Dela Cruz, hence, the balance of the accounts will be added together.

• A sole proprietor is wholly owned by the owner, hence, the Dela Cruz Flower Shop
(Account No. 4) owned by Juan Dela Cruz will be added to his first three accounts as all of
them (Account Nos. 1 to 4) are maintained in the same right and capacity. The total amount
insured cannot exceed P500,000.00.

• Of the total balance of P 900,000.00, the amount insured is P 500,000.00 and the uninsured
amount is P 400,000.00.
Case 3: Single, "ITF" and "By" Accounts

Computation of Insured and Uninsured Amount:

Explanations:

• Juan Dela Cruz is the principal owner of three accounts (i.e., Account Nos. 1, 3 & 4). As these
are maintained in the same right and capacity, these accounts will be consolidated.

The single account (Account No. 1) is under his name alone and the other two are "By"
accounts (Account Nos. 3 and 4) which are owned by him as the PRINCIPAL DEPOSITOR or
BENEFICIAL OWNER while Maria Dela Cruz and Pedro Dela Cruz ACTED AS HIS AGENTS
only. Thus, the total insured amount payable to Juan Dela Cruz is P 500,000.00 and the
uninsured amount is P700,000.00.

• Antonio Dela Cruz on the other hand has only one account (Account No. 2), an "ITF"
account in which Antonio is the PRINCIPAL OR BENEFICIAL OWNER and Juan acted as
AGENT. Thus, Antonio Dela Cruz is entitled to a separate deposit insurance of P 400,000.00
for his savings deposit.
JOINT ACCOUNTS

Charter Provision:

• A joint account regardless of whether the conjunction "and", "or", "and/or" is used, shall be
insured separately from any individually-owned deposit account/s.

• If the account is held jointly by two or more natural persons, or by two or more juridical
persons or entities, the maximum insured deposit shall be divided into as many equal
shares as there are individuals, juridical person or entities, unless a different sharing is
stipulated in the document of deposit.

• If the account is held by a juridical person or entity jointly with one or more natural
persons, the maximum insured deposit shall be presumed to belong entirely to such
juridical person or entity.

P500,000.00 MDIC.
