But in case of loans and other credit accommodations with maturities of more than five *>, years provisions must be made for periodic amorti"ation payments but such payments must be made at least annually. !hat is the general rule. !his annually there must be an amorti"ation made if the maturity of the loan is five years or more. !here can be e1ceptions-- when the borrowed funds are to be used for purposes which do not initially produce revenues adequate for regular amorti"ation payments therefrom the bank may permit the initial amorti"ation payment to be deferred until such time as said revenues are sufficient for such purpose but in no case shall the initial amorti"ation date be later than five *>, years from the date on which the loan or other credit accommodation is granted. So the longest where there is a grace period for amorti"ation is five years. K6 cannot imagine micro-financing more than one year. !here is only small amount.L

Notwithstanding %ct .(.> #uridical persons whose property is being sold pursuant to an e1tra#udicial foreclosure shall have the right to redeem the property in accordance with this provision until but not after the registration of the certificate of foreclosure sale with the applicable 8egister of @eeds which in no case shall be more than three *., months after foreclosure whichever is earlier. Awners of property that has been sold in a foreclosure sale prior to the effectivity of this %ct shall retain their redemption rights until their e1piration. Now you are taking up the basic foreclosure of mortgages. !here is recent rules in foreclosure whether #udicial or e1tra#udicial in connection with banks is found in section /;. !he borrower whose collateral is foreclosed and his real property has the right within one year after the sale of the real estate to redeem the property by paying the amount due under the mortgage deed with interest thereon at rate specified in the mortgage and all the costs and e1penses incurred by the bank or institution from the sale and custody of said property less the income derived therefrom. Now so one year only. !he borrower has one year to redeem. =owever the purchaser at the auction sale concerned whether in a #udicial or e1tra#udicial foreclosure shall have the right to enter upon and take possession of such property immediately after the date of the

confirmation of the auction sale and administer the same in accordance with law. Sub#ect to the right of redemption of the borrower. Provided he*borrower, puts up a bond in the amount fi1ed by the court conditioned that he will pay all the damages which the bank may suffer by the en#oining or the restraint of the foreclosure proceeding. !he borrower has the burden of proving that the foreclosure is unlawful. !hat is why he needs to put up a bond. Now what is the e1ception to the one year redemption periodE the e1ception is that the borrower is a corporation a #uridical person. 6f the borrower is a #uridical person then he loses his right for redemption to the property as soon as the bank registers the certificate of foreclosure sale with the applicable 8A@ and placed a notice more than three months after the foreclosure. So if you are a natural person then he could not pay after foreclosure then he will still have one year to redeem. But if you are a corporation you are borrower that was foreclosed the moment the purchaser of the foreclosure sale registers it with the 8A@ then you can no longer redeem it or of the passage of three months. !hose are the new rules with respect to the right of redemption. !here is difference between equity redemption and right redemption.

general public you cannot detect that when the banks publish their financial statement every quarter. !hat is why there is a need to prescribe the conditions and limitations under which a bank may grant e1tensions or renewals of its loans and other credit accommodations. Sec. /F.

Sige sila ug sulat sa bangko ?buhi-i ning among mortgage sa usa para mabaligya namo makakwarta mi ibayad namo impas ang utang.? @ili mubuhi ang bangko whyE !hey have a perfect right because the loan is a indivisible contract those three properties cover the entire amount of the loan. So it is considered as only one. %ng nagdawat sa sulat kay legal department man. 7ala man naga-hunahuna sa bank business kay legal point of view man. !he bank business wants to clear its books. !hese properties na naforeclosed kay magdeteriorate. !hat is the problem they thought of it as e1clusively a legal problem.

BANK N! LA" January 24, 2013 7e are almost through we need another e1am. Sec. >( provides for $eiling on 6nvestments in $ertain %ssets most specifically on real assets. Section >(. $eiling on 6nvestments in $ertain %ssets. - %ny bank may acquire real estate as shall be necessary for its own use in the conduct of its business: Provided however !hat the total investment in such real estate and improvements thereof including bank equipment shall not e1ceed fifty percent *>+4, of combined capital accounts: Provided further !hat the equity investment of a bank in another corporation engaged primarily in real estate shall be considered as part of the bankDs total investment in real estate unless otherwise provided by the &onetary Board. *)>a, $ombined capital accounts which means paid up capital *common stockE, plus unrestricted earnings supplied and surplus profits. So >+ 4 is the limit. Now the equity investment of the bank in another corporation engaged in primarily real estate shall be considered as part of the bankDs total investment in the real estate unless provided by the monetary board. So that is a restriction of banks. 6nvestments in real estate. %nother restriction of real estate if you acquire real estate the bank acquires. how does it acquireE Because of mortgages in good faith. they are provided with securities or because it is real estate that is paid to the bank as satisfaction for debts. Ar in any other legitimate way the bank is nonetheless provide to within a period of five years from its acquisition as prescribed by the monetary board to dispose of such real estate provided that the bank may after said period of five years continue to hold the property for its own use sub#ect to the limitations of *proceedingsE,. 6f it does not own more than >+4 of the combined capital accounts it may hold on to it provided it is really using it. Now let me tell you a practical e1emption in which the monetary board readily grants. Sometimes a bank forecloses on a real property that had already receded because it is in

region where people are afraid to go there. NP%s or places where it is in the hands of rebels. People do not go there much more you could dispose of the property. So when the bank e1aminer comes around. 7hy is it still when the acquisition is more than five years agoE !hen you e1plain to the e1aminer you have not seen property. 7hyE Because it is there in the mountain. Naa pay mudawat ani ihatag na namo pero walay mutultul dinhi. %nd that is where the e1aminer will take note and allow it to stay in the books because there is an ec1ception. Now sec. >. enumerates the so-called the other banking services in addition to the operations specifically authori"ed to the bank. Section >..

Section >/. Prohibition to %ct as 6nsurer. - % bank shall not directly engage in insurance business as the insurer. *;., But we have seen that a universal bank is allowed to make investments in non-alike businesses. So a universal bank can buy equity in insurance companies. !hat is when banks will allow insurance companies to sell to its own bank and the bank itself for its insurance needs will use its own insurance company. 7hen does the bank needs insuranceE 0very time you have a mortgage of a house and lot. !he bank will not approve mortgage unless you buy insurance of the security of the house and lot. %nd for the lenght of the loan that insurance is active and should the house burn down the creditor bank is subrogated to the shoes owner of the house because it has the right to such amount of the proceeds of the insurance of the unpaid balance of the loan. Now you will ask why is a bank prohibited from taking a direct insurerE Because it is in traditional banking *as distinguished from enlightened banking--the one-stop banking made for the convenience of the banking public---kumpleto may insurer loan deposit., why it is not done beforeE Because in traditional banking-- it is seem to be a conflict of interest. Jou received a collateral a house-and-lot you wanted to be safeguarded as to the loan so that when you foreclose this house you can sell the house to recover the loan. Now if you are the insurer are you going to go for the ma1imum insurable amount or the lower insurable amount. @apat mas gamay para mas gamay ang bayrunon na insurable amount #ust in case of loss. Mung ikaw ang Bangko unsay gusto nimo ipa insure higher or lower insurable interest. &as dako kay ikaw gud ang nagpahiram sa kwarta. So there is a conflict of interest. Minsay imo padag-on if you are both the lender and insurer. 7ill you win for the insurer or for the lenderE !here is a conflict of interest. !hat is why the bank is prohibited to be a direct insurer. &ind you with the clearings now being conducted the direction is the banks are going back to a cut and dry business of banking.
