PDIC takes over Albay-based Rural Bank |
The Philippine Deposit Insurance Corporation (PDIC) took over Rural Bank of Malilipot, Inc. on December 7, 2007 after the Monetary Board (MB) ordered the closure of the bank by virtue of MB Resolution No. 1377 dated December 6, 2007. The single-unit bank is located in Tabaco, Albay. Latest available records show that as of June 30, 2007, the bank's estimated total deposit liabilities was P55.58 million. In a statement, PDIC said that upon takeover, all bank records would be gathered, verified and validated in preparation for the claims settlement operations. The deposit insurer advised depositors of Rural Bank of Malilipot, Inc. to wait for further announcement on the schedule of claims servicing. Under Republic Act 9302 that amended the PDIC Charter effective August 12, 2004, the maximum deposit insurance coverage is now P250,000 per depositor. |
