Banks must report incident within 24 hours
KEISHA TA-ASAN

The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) is now requiring banks and financial institutions to report any significant incident related to money laundering, terrorism and proliferation financing within 24 hours.

In a circular signed by BSP Deputy Governor Bernadette RomuloPuyat on April 29, the Monetary Board has amended certain sections of the Manual of Regulations for Banks (MORB) and Manual of Regulations for Non-Bank Financial Institutions (MORNBFI) as part of its risk-based anti-money laundering and countering terrorism and proliferation financing supervision.

Under the new rules, BSP-supervised financial institutions (BSFIs) are now required to submit a risk event report to the central bank within 24 hours from date of knowledge of any significant money laundering, terrorism financing and proliferation financing risk event.
