LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
PHILIPPINE DEPOSIT
INSURANCE CORPORATION
(PDIC)
PDIC exists to protect depositors by providing deposit insurance coverage for the
depositing public and help promote financial stability.
The PDIC's core mandates are deposit insurance and liquidation of closed banks.
FUNCTIONS OF PDIC
DEPOSIT INSURER
CO-REGULATOR OF BANKS
The term 'insured deposit' means the amount due to any bona fide
depositor for legitimate deposits in an insured bank net of any
obligation of the depositor to the insured bank as of date of closure,
but not to exceed P500,000.00.
As for Philippine banks with branches outside the country, R.A. 9576 stipulates that subject to the
approval of the board of directors, any insured bank with branch outside the Philippines may elect to
include for insurance its deposit obligations payable at such branch.
Foreign currency deposits are also insured by PDIC pursuant to R.A. 6426 ("an act instituting a foreign
currency deposit system in the Philippines, and for other purposes") and Central Bank (CB) Circular
No. 1389. Depositors may receive payment in the same currency in which the insured deposit is
denominated.

FAQ
Are deposits maintained in branches and subsidiaries of
foreign banks operating in the Philippines insured by the PDIC?
Yes, the PDIC Charter provides that the deposits in branches and subsidiaries of foreign banks licensed by the
Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) to perform banking functions in the Philippines are insured by the .PDIC.
The PDIC Charter provides that a Philippine bank may elect to insure with the PDIC its deposits in branches
outside the Philippines. As of 31 December 2012, no Philippine bank has elected to insure deposits in their
foreign branches with PDIC.
PDIC covers only the risk of a bank closure ordered by the Monetary Board. Thus, bank losses due to theft, fire,
closure by reason of strike or existence of public disorder, revolution or civil war, are not covered by PDIC.
PDIC LAW
FAQ
Shall the depositor pay any insurance premium to PDIC?
No. Insurance premium is paid by the banks, not by the depositors. The bank is assessed 1/5 of 1% per annum
of the assessment base of the bank.
No. Deposit insurance coverage is not determined on a per-account basis. The type of account (whether
checking, savings, time or other form of deposit) has no bearing on the amount of insurance coverage.
No. Deposits in different banking institutions are insured separately. However, if a bank has one or more
branches, the main office and all branch offices are considered as one bank. Thus, if you have deposits at the
main office and at one or more branch offices of the same bank, the deposits are added together when
determining deposit insurance coverage, the total of which shall not exceed P500,000.
PDIC LAW FAQ
·Is there a need for a depositor to file his claim for insured
deposit with PDIC?
Yes. Depositors will be advised through the national and/or local media and posters at the premises of the
closed insured bank and other public places within the locality on the schedule of distribution of claim forms by
PDIC, receiving of claim forms by PDIC, and the prescriptive date of filing claims by the depositors.
The depositor of the closed insured bank has 24 months from date of bank takeover to file his deposit
insurance claim.
The claim for the uninsured portion of the deposit is a claim against the assets of the closed bank. The claim may
be filed with the Liquidator of the closed bank within sixty (60) days from publication of notice of closure. However,
payment of said claim will depend on the bank's available assets and approval of the Liquidation Court. The
schedule of payment beyond the P500,000.00 maximum insurance shall be based on priorities set by law.
PDIC LAW
Under R.A. no 9576 the PDIC may propose to adjust the MDIC,
subject to the approval of the president of the Philippines, in case
of condition that threatens the monetary and financial stability of
the banking system that may have systematic consequences.
