In an April 9, 2012 article entitled "Stress Test Proves Strength of PH Banks", "Philippine banks are seen to survive a disaster in which the various lenders are forced to write off loans as large as PhP 36 billion without asking shareholders, the central bank, or the national government for bailout money." This assertion stems from a recent stress test conducted by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) on all 55 regular and commercial and expanded license banks.
For Philippine Commercial Banks, these NPLs currently comprise PhP 71.727 billion or 8.46% of the PhP 847.757 billion in Stockholders Equity (SE) as of December 31, 2012. So, writing off 50% of the Philippine Commercial Banking NPLs would reduce their aggregate stockholders equity by a little more than 4%.
For Philippine Thrift Banks, the NPL levels are much higher on a relative basis. As of December 31, 2012, Philippine Thrift Bank NPLs amounted to PhP 24.705 billion or 30.50% of the PhP 81.006 billion of Stockholders Equity of the Philippine Thrift Banking System for the same period. This is more than three times the level of the Philippine Commercial Banking System. As a consequence, Philippine Thrift Banks, as a whole, are much more vulnerable to a 50% NPL write-off, simply because the NPL levels are so much higher than that of Philippine Commercial Banks.
In a 50% write-off of NPLs would reduce the Stockholders Equity of Philippine Thrift Banks by more than 15%. Naturally, some banks would be more affected than others. (Weak banks are highlighted in yellow. For more information regarding this, please read "Philippine Thrift Banks Deteriorate in the 4th Quarter of 2012").
The stockholder's equity of one bank's equity, The Real Bank, would be completely wiped out. One other bank, Citibank Savings, Inc., would experience a near wipe-out of its stockholder's equity. Citibank Savings Inc. is the local subsidiary of a foreign bank and, as such, has little or no capital. In a crisis, it would rely on its "home-host" arrangement wherein the mother ship (the foreign parent) sends more funds and/or capital when local regulators or counterparties require it. Seven other banks, namely, The Palawan Bank (56.10% decline in SE), Opportunity Kauswagan Bank, Inc. (51.82% decline in SE), Silangan Savings and Loan Bank, Inc. (39.88% decline in SE), Legazpi Development Bank (37.08% decline in SE), Planters Development Bank (36.19% decline in SE), Bataan Development Bank (32.87% decline in SE), Comsavings Bank (31.27% decline in SE), would be severely affected.
It should be noted that the stockholder's equity of one bank, Inter-Asia Development Bank, is already wiped out at a negative Php 16.307 million. However, due to other capital accounts, and loan loss reserves, its Total Capital Cushion stands at a positive Php 12.527 million.

Are NPLs the Right Numbers to Look At?
In a financial crisis, a loan that is current can very well become past due, and a past due loan can become a non-performing loan, and a non-performing loan can become a loan write-off. The real number to look at are the loans that the banks and BSP already consider doubtful: Classified Loans.
Investopedia.com defines "Classified Loans" as:
"Any bank loan that is in danger of default. Classified loans have unpaid interest and principal outstanding, and it is unclear whether the bank will be able to recoup the loan proceeds from the borrower. Banks usually categorize such loans as adversely classified assets on their books."
The US Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), similar to our very own Philippine Deposit Insurance Corporation (PDIC), defines Classified Loans as:
"Loans classified Loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the loan has absolutely no recovery or salvage value but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this basically worthless asset even though partial recovery may be effected in the future."

In Circular #0247 dated May 19, 2000, BSP defines Classified Loans as loans which possess the following characteristics:
- Loans especially mentioned because they have potential weaknesses that deserve Management's close attention;
- Substandard Loans are loans which appear to involve a substantial and unreasonable degree of risk to the institution because of unfavorable record or unsatisfactory characteristics;
- Doubtful Loans are Substandard Loans with the added characteristics that existing facts, conditions, and values make collection or liquidation in full highly improbable and in which substantial loss is probable;
- Loss are loans that are considered uncollectible or worthless and are of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted although the loans may have some recovery or salvage value.
- Loans Especially Mentioned: 5%
- Substandard - Secured: 6% - 25%
- Substandard - Unsecured: 25%
- Doubtful: 50%
- Loss: 100%

This level of classified loans should be measured against the bank's "capital cushion" or its ability to absorb losses. Capital Cushion is normally defined as a bank's "Tangible Common Equity" plus its Loan Loss Reserves. Tangible Common Equity (TCE) refers to the subset of shareholders' equity that is not preferred equity and not intangible assets. So it excludes such items as Hybrid equity (like preferred shares) and goodwill.
By this measure, the level of "Classified Loans and other Risky Assets" amounts to 70.08% of the PhP 87.764 billion in Total Capital Cushion of Philippine Thrift Banks as of December 31, 2012.

Stress Test Scenarios
Aggregate
So how will a 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and even 50% write-off of Classified Loans affect the Total Capital Cushion of the Philippine Thrift Banking System?
In the aggregate, if Classified Loans amount to 70.08% of the thrift banking system's Total Capital Cushion, then it follows that a 10% write-off of Classified Loans will reduce the total capital by 7.01% and a 50% write-off of classified loans will reduce the thrift banking system's Total Capital Cushion by 35.04%.
Individual Banks
A 10% write-off of Classified Loans would nearly wipe out the Total Capital Cusion of one bank (The Real Bank) and severely impact (by 30% or more) the Total Capital Cushion of four more banks (severely affected banks highlighted in yellow).
A 20% write-off of Classified Loans will totally wipe out the Total Capital Cushion of three banks and severely impact the Total Capital Cushion of five more banks:

Please bear in mind that a number of these banks are already very weak and are in distress. Please see a previous blog post: "Philippine Thrift Banks Deteriorate in the 4th Quarter of 2012"). Moreover, their capital can be overstated. See a previous blog post "Can Philippine Thrift Banks Charge their Unbooked Losses Against Retained Earnings? - December 31, 2012". As such, any reduction in their capital cushion could knock down an already weak bank.
