An 80% Minimum NPL Coverage Ratio will Result in a Severe Undercapitalization of Some Philippine Banks - December 31, 2017

In a previous blog post called "Are Philippine Banks Under Provisioning Loan Losses? - As of December 31, 2017", we discussed the current aggregate Loan Loss Reserves (LLR) as a percentage of Total Loan Portfolio (TLP), which stood at 1.85% as of December 31, 2017, is below the historic average of 4.08% for the last thirty-four years.
 
Despite NPLs being at or near historic lows, some banks still have not adequately provisioned for loan losses. Their NPL Coverage Ratios are below the ideal ratio of 100% and even below the suggested minimum of 80% NPL Coverage Ratio.

As the table below suggests, it seems that around 34 banks (highlighted in yellow, failed banks in red) fall into this deficiency.

Raising the NPL Coverage Ratio to a minimum of 80% will entail additional loan loss provisions for some banks that could eat into a substantial chunk (20% or more) of their Stockholder's Equity.  Based on the table below, five banks will be severely affected:

Out of the five banks highlighted in yellow, three banks have been regularly listed as one of the "The Top Distressed Philippine Banks as of December 31, 2017".

The most notable of the banks in this list is Philippine Postal Savings Bank Inc. The bank faces a shortfall of 201.81% of its stated stockholder's equity of Php 842.00 million if it were to increase its loan loss provisions to meet a minimum NPL Coverage Ratio of 80%. In short, it's equity would be completely wiped out and then some if the bank were to properly account for its losses.
