November 27, 2023

The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) plans to further expand the types of debt instruments that banks and financial institutions can issue.

- LAWRENCE AGCAOILI

The regulator is set to amend certain sections of the Manual of Regulations for Banks (MORB) and the Manual of Regulations for NonBank Financial Institutions (MORNBFI) on borrowings from banks and quasi-banks and other financial intermediaries.

The proposed changes will allow banks and quasi-banks to issue other debt securities and instruments aside from bonds and commercial papers without prior approval from the BSP.

These entities are required to inform the BSP within five banking days from the approval by their board of directors of the planned issuance of bonds, commercial papers and other debt securities or instruments.
