Philippine U/KBs Show Some Deterioration in the 2nd Qtr. of 2012

Editor's Note: The Philippine Deposit Insurance Corporation (PDIC) advised consumers to wisely choose the banks where they will deposit their money. The trouble is, most depositors don't and can't read financial statements before they open a bank account. The regulators, whose job is to safeguard the public's money, have not done a good job recently.  In the past ten years, two commercial banks, twenty-one thrift banks, and a staggering 187 rural banks have collapsed, often quite suddenly and without warning.  Regulators do have a problem bank list that they do not divulge to the public, for fear of sparking another bank run. So who can the public turn to, to advise them where to put their money? No one, except the banks themselves who will always promote their self-interests. This analysis is an attempt to fill in that knowledge gap, by screening out the weaker banks that seem ready to implode at any given moment.

Editor's Note: The ratio of Distressed Assets to Total Capital Cushion is a variant of the famous Texas Ratio, which was widely used by US financial regulators to predict bank failure during the US Savings and Loan Crisis in the 1980s and early 1990s. The basic premise is that a bank with Distressed Assets greater than its Capital Cushion is in danger of insolvency, because a significant drop in the value of  the Distressed Assets will eat into a significant amount of the bank's capital.  For a more detailed discussion of this ratio, please visit a previous blog post: The Texas Ratio of Select Philippine Banks  

Based on the individual Published Statements of Condition for the Philippine Commercial Banking Industry (from www.bsp.gov.ph), Total Distressed Assets of Philippine Commercial Banks increased by Php 4.6 billion or 0.82% from March 31, 2012 to June 30, 2012.  This increase was compounded by a 1.26% decrease in their Total Capital Cushion during the same period.  As a result, the Ratio of Total Distressed Assets to Total Capital Cushion of Philippine Commercial Banks increased by 1.59%, from 75.61% as of March 31, 2012 to 77.21% as of June 30, 2012.  The results are skewed slightly lower by the absence of Export and Industry Bank, which, as of September 30, 2011, was ranked the most insolvent bank.  See previous blog posts: "Export and Industry Bank Becomes Even More Insolvent! - September 30, 2011" and "Time is Running Out for Export and Industry Bank".  Export and Industry Bank failed in late April 2012 and did not have a Published Statement of Condition on www.bsp.gov.ph as of the date of this blog post.

Those banks that posted significant improvements in this ratio include:

1. Philippine Veterans Bank (35.48% decrease)
2. Standard Chartered Bank (20.98% decrease)
3. East West Banking Corporation (17.30% decrease)

The banks that exhibited significant deterioration in this ratio include:

1. Asia United Bank Corporation (76.49% increase)
2. Maybank Philippines, Inc. (30.76% increase)
3. HongKong & Shanghai Banking Corporation (27.79% increase)
4. Internationale Nederlanden Groep BK (25.57% increase)
5. Chinatrust (Philippines) Commercial Banking Corporation (24.29% increase)

Distressed Banks

None of the banks with significant increases have been classified as distressed based on their ratio of Total Distressed Assets to Total Capital Cushion as of the 2nd Qtr. of  2012.  Two banks ranked as distressed in the 1st Qtr. of 2012 showed some deterioration in their distressed ratios as of June 30, 2012.  These banks are:

1. Bank of Commerce (2.12% increase)
2. United Coconut Planters Bank (0.94% increase)

United Coconut Planters Bank continues to rank as the most distressed Universal and Commercial bank in the country.  Its Total Distressed Assets are more than six times its Total Capital Cushion.  It must be noted that this ratio is down significantly from year-end 2011, when its Total Distressed Assets were ten times its Total Capital Cushion.

The list of banks classified as distressed as of June 30, 2012 are as follows:

1. United Coconut Planters Bank (Distressed Ratio of 649.99%)
2. Standard Chartered Bank (Distressed Ratio of 210.69%)
3. Philippine Bank of Communications (Distressed Ratio of 167.10%)
4. Bank of Commerce (Distressed Ratio of 165.11%)
5. Philippine National Bank (Distressed Ratio of 145.57%)
6. Philippine Veterans Bank (Distressed Ratio of 116.61%)

All these banks were flagged as borderline insolvent (highlighted in yellow) as of March 31, 2012.  However, as a group the distressed banks showed some improvement in their Total Distressed Assets/Total Capital Cushion Ratios.  This ratio now stands at 205.57% as of June 30, 2012, down from 211.93% as of March 31, 2012.

This list only serves as a screening guide.  It is not a definitive guide and must be taken in the context of other factors.  The figures are based on the individual banks' published statements of condition as of March 31 and June 30, 2012 as published in the BSP website (www.bsp.gov.ph). For this analysis, no attempt was made to go through the audited financial statements of each bank. Readers are suggested to make their own investigations and verify the figures presented. Both BSP and PDIC have their own problem bank screening systems that are much more sophisticated in scope and design, given that they have more access to information over the banks they regulate. 

The Top Distressed Philippine Banks as of March 31, 2012

Editor's Note:  This blog was inspired by the spectacular failure of Banco Filipino Savings and Mortgage Bank for the second time in its 38 years of existence.  This blog post and other blog posts like it attempt to describe why the bank failed.  But it also attempts to assess what other Philippine Banks have the potential to fail in the not too distant future. To see blog posts on other banks, click on the Banco Filipino Graphic at the top of the blog or click on the blog archive on the right hand column, or simply go to bancofilipinofailure.blogspot.com.


Editor's Note: The Philippine Deposit Insurance Corporation (PDIC) advised consumers to wisely choose the banks where they will deposit their money. The trouble is, most depositors don't and can't read financial statements before they open a bank account. The regulators, whose job is to safeguard the public's money, have not done a good job recently.  In the past ten years, two commercial banks, twenty-one thrift banks, and a staggering 187 rural banks have collapsed, often quite suddenly and without warning:  http://www.gmanetwork.com/news/video/93600/saksi-pagsasara-ng-banco-filipino-at-lbc-devt-bank-ikinadismaya.  Regulators do have a problem bank list that they do not divulge to the public, for fear of sparking another bank run. So who can the public turn to, to advise them where to put their money? No one, except the banks themselves who will always promote their self-interests. This analysis is an attempt to fill in that knowledge gap, by screening out the weaker banks that seem ready to implode at any given moment.

Editor's Note: The ratio of Distressed Assets to Total Capital Cushion is a variant of the famous Texas Ratio, which was widely used by US financial regulators to predict bank failure during the US Savings and Loan Crisis in the 1980s and early 1990s. The basic premise is that a bank with Distressed Assets greater than its Capital Cushion is in danger of insolvency, because a significant drop in the value of  the Distressed Assets will eat into a significant amount of the bank's capital.  A bank that has a Distressed Ratio greater than 100% is flagged as borderline insolvent (highlighted in yellow).  For a more detailed discussion of this ratio, please visit a previous blog post: The Texas Ratio of Select Philippine Banks

This list only serves as a screening guide.  It is not a definitive guide and must be taken in the context of other factors.  The figures are based on the individual banks' statement of condition as of March 31, 2012 as published in the BSP website (www.bsp.gov.ph). For this analysis, no attempt was made to go through the audited financial statements of each bank. Readers are suggested to make their own investigations and verify the figures presented. Both BSP and PDIC have their own problem bank screening systems that are much more sophisticated in scope and design, given that they have more access to information over the banks they regulate.

Among Listed Philippine Banks, PBCom Takes the Gold in Insolvency - June 30, 2012

Editor's Note: The Philippine Deposit Insurance Corporation (PDIC) advised consumers to wisely choose the banks where they will deposit their money. The trouble is, most depositors don't and can't read financial statements before they open a bank account. The regulators, whose job is to safeguard the public's money, have not done a good job recently.  In the past ten years, two commercial banks, twenty-one thrift banks, and a staggering 187 rural banks have collapsed, often quite suddenly and without warning:  http://www.gmanetwork.com/news/video/93600/saksi-pagsasara-ng-banco-filipino-at-lbc-devt-bank-ikinadismaya.  Regulators do have a problem bank list that they do not divulge to the public, for fear of sparking another bank run. So who can the public turn to, to advise them where to put their money? No one, except the banks themselves who will always promote their self-interests. This analysis is an attempt to fill in that knowledge gap, by screening out the weaker banks that seem ready to implode at any given moment.

Editor's Note: The ratio of Distressed Assets to Total Capital Cushion is a variant of the famous Texas Ratio, which was widely used by US financial regulators to predict bank failure during the US Savings and Loan Crisis in the 1980s and early 1990s. The basic premise is that a bank with Distressed Assets greater than its Capital Cushion is in danger of insolvency, because a significant drop in the value of  the Distressed Assets will eat into a significant amount of the bank's capital.  For a more detailed discussion of this ratio, please visit a previous blog post: The Texas Ratio of Select Philippine Banks  

Editor's Note: This is an update of an earlier post: "Among Listed Philippine Banks, PNB Takes the Gold in Insolvency" dated June 20, 2012.

Based on the individual Published Statements of Condition for Listed Philippine Banks, the Total Distressed Assets increased by PhP 8.050 billion or 2.04% from March 31, 2012 to June 30, 2012.  This was partially offset by an increase of PhP 0.630 billion  or 0.11% in the Total Capital Cushion of these banks during the same period.  As a result, the Listed Banks Ratio of Distressed Assets to Total Capital Cushion increased by 1.93% from 68.031% as of March 31, 2012 to 69.63% as of June 30, 2012.

Please note that the ratio of Distressed Assets to Total Capital Cushion of three banks on this list is above the borderline level of 100.00%.  These banks have been classified as distressed and are highlighted in yellow.  These banks are as follows:

1. Philippine Bank of Communications (PBCom), has a borderline insolvency ratio of 167.10% as of June 30, 2012, down 5.86% from 177.50% as of March 31, 2012.  Its Total Distressed Assets declined by PhP 0.623 million and its Total Capital Cushion declined by PhP 35.722 million in the second quarter of 2012.
2. Philippine National Bank (PNB) has a borderline insolvency ratio of 153.50% as of June 30, 2012, down 6.03% from 163.35% as of March 31, 2012.
3. China Bank Savings, Inc. has a borderline insolvency ratio of 141.86% as of June 30, 2012, down a slight 0.46% from 142.52%.

It should be noted that PNB's merger with Allied Bank should improve the bank's finances and operating margin. (See: "PNB, Allied Expect P1-B Savings from Merger in 2nd Quarter") The merger, which was approved by the stockholders of both banks in the second quarter of 2012, has now been approved by banking regulators in the third quarter of 2012.  (See: "PDIC approves merger of Allied, PNB").

The bank that exhibited a significant decrease in their insolvency ratios was: East West Banking Corporation, which dropped from 56.41% as of March 31, 2011 to 46.65% as of June 30, 2012.
