PART I – BUSINESS AND GENERAL INFORMATION

ITEM 1 – BUSINESS

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

1. Business Development

Metropolitan Bank & Trust Company (“Metrobank” or “the Bank”) was incorporated on April 6, 1962 by a group
of Filipino businessmen to provide financial services to the Filipino-Chinese community. Since its formation, the
Bank has diversified its business, and to date provides a broad range of banking and collateral services to all
sectors of the Philippine economy. The original Certification of Incorporation of the Bank was issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for a 50-year corporate term. The SEC approved the renewal on
November 19, 2007.

The Bank opened its first office in Binondo, Manila on September 5, 1962. Within a year, the Bank opened its
second branch in Divisoria, Manila. Soon after, the Bank started expanding outside Manila with the opening of its
first provincial branch in Davao. In 1975, the Bank rolled out its first international branch in Taipei, followed by
offices in New York, Guam, Hong Kong, and Tokyo towards the early 1980s. Initially, the role of the Bank’s
foreign offices was to tap expanding Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) remittance business and to complement
its corresponding branch network. This strategy proved successful as the OFW market grew strongly and the
political turbulence in the Philippines made access to foreign exchange difficult. It was during this period that the
Bank started its Foreign Currency Deposit Unit (FCDU) operations. The Philippine Central Bank authorized
Metrobank to operate its FCDU on April 15, 1977.

In November 1980, the SEC approved and certified the listing of 500,000 common shares of Metrobank’s capital
stock. On February 26, 1981, Metrobank’s common shares were listed on the Makati Stock Exchange Inc. and
the Manila Stock Exchange (which has since unified to become The Philippine Stock Exchange, Inc. or PSE),
with the trading symbol of MBT.

On August 21, 1981, Metrobank became one of the first to be granted a universal banking license by the
Philippine Central Bank, now Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP). This license allowed the Bank to engage in
“non-allied undertakings” which include automobile manufacturing, travel services and real estate, as well as
finance-related businesses such as insurance, savings and retail banking, credit card services and leasing.

On August 13, 2013, the SEC approved the amendment of the Articles of Incorporation of the Bank increasing its
authorized capital stock from P50 billion to P100 billion composed of 4.0 billion common shares and 1.0 billion
non-voting preferred shares, each with a par value of P20 per share. The Bank declared a 30% stock dividend
equivalent to 633.4 million common shares (approved for listing by PSE on September 10, 2013) which was
applied as payment for the required minimum 25% subscription to the increase in authorized capital stock. Total
outstanding shares increased to 2,744,801,066 after the stock dividend.

On February 24, 2015, the SEC confirmed the exemption of a rights offer for up to P32.0 billion worth of
common shares from the registration requirements under Section 8 of the Securities Regulation Code.
Subsequently, in April 2015, the Bank completed a rights offer for 435,371,720 common shares with par value of
P20.00. Total outstanding shares increased to 3,180,172,786 after the transaction. On April 12, 2018, the Bank
completed another stock rights offer for 799,842,250 common shares with par value of P20.00. Total outstanding
shares increased to 3,980,015,036 after the transaction.

On October 4, 2019, the SEC approved the amendment of the Articles of Incorporation of the Bank increasing its
authorized capital stock from P100 billion to P140 billion composed of 6.0 billion common shares and 1.0 billion
non-voting preferred shares, each with a par value of P20 per share. The Bank declared a 13% stock dividend
equivalent to 517.4 million common shares (approved for listing by PSE on November 19, 2019) which was
applied as payment for the required minimum 25% subscription to the increase in authorized capital stock. Total
outstanding shares increased to 4,497,415,555 after the stock dividend.

Competition

The Bank faces competition from both domestic and foreign banks. The number of foreign banks operating in the
country has increased in recent years, in part as a result of the liberalization of the banking industry by the
Government in 1994 and again in 2014.

As of December 31, 2020, the Philippine universal/commercial banking sector consisted of 46 banks, including 26
foreign bank entities. In terms of classification, there are 21 universal banks and 25 commercial banks. Of the 21
universal banks, 12 are private domestic banks, three are government banks and six are branches of foreign banks.
Of the 25 commercial banks, five are private domestic banks, two are subsidiaries of foreign banks and 18 are
branches of foreign banks. The ten largest universal/commercial banks in the country accounted for over 80% of
total assets, loans and total deposits of the universal/commercial banking system based on published statements of
condition as of September 30, 2020.

Products and services offered by the larger commercial banks are fairly similar, and banks have used competitive
pricing to attract clients. Customer coverage, accessibility and customer experience also act as other key
10

differentiating factors. The smaller domestic banks and foreign banks, on the other hand usually operate in
smaller niche markets.

The BSP has been encouraging consolidation among banks in order to strengthen the Philippine banking system.
Mergers and consolidations may result in greater competition as it strengthens the financial capabilities of a
smaller group of “top tier” banks. In December 2016, the BSP issued a memorandum providing regulatory
incentives for mergers, consolidations and acquisition of majority or all outstanding shares of stock of a bank or
quasi bank.

Innovations and Promotions

In 2020, Metrobank Group continued to introduce campaigns and promotions to address the market’s needs.

• To enhance the non-physical banking capabilities of clients, Metrobank revamped its online banking platform
through Metrobank Online. The new facility features allow clients to secure their purchases and money
transfers with a passcode, real-time SMS and email notification of account activities for easy monitoring, and
faster processing of frequent transactions, among others. With Metrobank Online, clients may view, add and
redeem investments, as well as request a call with an investment specialist. Metrobank Online is also
optimized for mobile use, making it easy for clients to access their accounts through their smartphones.
Likewise, through the Earnest app, aside from offering clients bite-sized lessons and easy-to-read articles
about investments, clients may now open digital deposit and investment accounts, while accessing the Bank’s
wide range of products and services. Complementing the Bank’s online banking initiatives, Metrobank also
deployed mobile ATMs to reach more clients and facilitate their banking needs.

• Metrobank continued to offer exclusive deals through its partner merchants, both retail and online, while
supporting client amid disruptions caused by the pandemic. In May 2020, the Bank launched a 0%
installment plan for essential spend to help ease cardholders’ worries and manage their spending during the
enhanced community quarantine. The Bank also launched a donation drive encouraging Metrobank credit
cardholders to help fellow Filipino workers whose livelihoods have been affected by the enhanced
community quarantine. Cardholders had the option convert their credit card Rewards Points into a donation
for Filipino communities in need through the McDo Kindness Kitchen and GMA Kapuso Foundation. Plus,
Metrobank committed to also make a donation equal to the amount that the cardholders pledge.

• To ease customer convenience, the Bank also launched a Mobile Statement of Account (SOA) facility
wherein SOAs are sent to clients’ mobile phones through SMS and a secure personalized link – a way to
minimize physical deliveries. Metrobank also launched PayNow, a convenient facility that lets Metrobank
credit cardholders send money to any bank account in an instant.

• To cap off the year, Metrobank was also recognized by Digital Banker for Outstanding Social Media
Campaign at the Global Retail Banking Innovation Awards for 2020 as the Bank effectively used social
media to reach a younger segment by collaborating with 30 social influencers and had over 30% growth in
card sign-ups.

• Metrobank spearheaded Scam Proof, an online platform that consolidates information about different online
scams and fraudulent activities. Mindful of increasing digital transactions that are vulnerable to illicit
schemes, this financial education initiative aims to increase awareness about such online scams with tips on
how to avoid them. The platform engages the community in detecting and reporting fraud across banks and
other industries, thus empowering consumers. In “Scam Proof,” the users can learn about the basic bank
account security measures so they can protect their confidential information. The website also provides
knowledge on how to identify red flags of potentially fraudulent activities. As the Bangko Sentral ng
Pilipinas aims to further increase the adaptation of digital transactions and as financial technologies improve,
this online repository of latest fraud techniques will be beneficial for everyone as it helps educate the
community and deters fraudulent activity.

• Metrobank once again partnered with AXA Philippines to offer a free one-year PHP 100,000-coverage AXA
Personal Accident Insurance for accidental death or permanent disability from the moment a client opens a
new savings or checking deposit account at any Metrobank branch during the promotion period.
11

• PSBank upgraded its Mobile App to enable customers to open a Peso time deposit account online, lessening
the need for physical transactions. PSBank also enabled clients to use QR codes for quick and easy money
transfer and P2P payments, thus reducing the need to input or memorize account numbers and other account
details for fast and easy transactions. Likewise, its consumer and business loan clients can now pay loans
through Instapay fund transfer. All these initiatives aim to improve customers’ ability to conveniently and
securely do bank transactions from their homes. PSBank also launched a social media campaign called Tap,
Tap, Tapos Agad that reiterates the value of its robust mobile app, underscoring its commitment to enable
customer to complete any banking transaction in just a few taps on the mobile app, lessening the need for
physical contact or in-branch appearance. The campaign showcases how simple and fast users can do their
banking transactions using the improved functionalities of PSBank Mobile App.

• AXA Philippines partnered with Cebu Pacific to reach more customers and offer value-for-money health
solutions and insurance plans online. In the third quarter of 2020, AXA launched Global Health Access
(GHA) which includes pandemic coverage and GHA Gold Lite Plus which provides inpatient and outpatient
coverage for more affordable rates. Aside from that, customers were given access to free teleconsultation
during the quarantine necessitated by the pandemic. AXA also held several webinars via social media to
discuss relevant topics such as home schooling, prioritizing physical and mental health and managing
investments during the pandemic. During Bayanihan Act I and II, AXA promptly sent customers to inform
them of the grace period extension. In November 2020, AXA launched a rewards program to provide
customers with exclusive benefits and allows them to earn points for transactions and online interactions.

Government Approval of Principal Products or Services

The Group regularly obtains approvals and permits from regulatory bodies and agencies, as applicable, prior to
the offering of its products and services to the public.

Effect of Existing or Probable Government Regulations

BSP Reporting

Regulatory Qualifying Capital

Under existing BSP regulations, the determination of the compliance with regulatory requirements and ratios is
based on the amount of the “unimpaired capital” (regulatory net worth) as reported to the BSP, which is
determined on the basis of regulatory accounting policies that differ from PFRS in some respects.

The Group complied with BSP Circular No. 781, Basel III Implementing Guidelines on Minimum Capital
Requirements, which provides the implementing guidelines on the revised risk-based capital adequacy framework
13

particularly on the minimum capital and disclosure requirements for universal banks and commercial banks, as
well as their subsidiary banks and quasi-banks, in accordance with the Basel III standards. The Circular sets out a
minimum Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio of 6.00% and Tier 1 capital ratio of 7.50%; capital conservation
buffer of 2.50% comprised of CET1 capital and Total Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) of 10.00%. These ratios
shall be maintained at all times. Further, BSP Circular No. 856 covers the implementing guidelines on the
framework for dealing with domestic systemically important banks (DSIBs) in accordance with the Basel III
standards. Banks identified as DSIBs shall be required to have higher loss absorbency, on top of the minimum
CET1 capital and capital conservation buffer. Compliance with this requirement was phased-in starting January 1,
2017, with full compliance on January 1, 2019.

Qualifying capital and risk-weighted assets (RWA) are computed based on BSP regulations. The Group and its
individually regulated operations have complied with all externally imposed capital requirements throughout the
year.

The Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP) supplements the BSP’s risk-based capital adequacy
framework. In compliance with this, the Group has adopted and developed its ICAAP framework to ensure that
appropriate level and quality of capital are maintained by the Group. Under this framework, the assessment of
risks extends beyond the Pillar 1 set of credit, market and operational risks and onto other risks deemed material by
the Group. The level and structure of capital are assessed and determined in light of the Group’s business
environment, plans, performance, risks and budget as well as regulatory edicts.

Basel III Leverage Ratio (BLR)

BSP Circular Nos. 881 and 990 cover the implementing guidelines on the BLR framework designed to act as a
supplementary measure to the risk-based capital requirements and shall not be less than 5.00%. The monitoring
period has been set every quarter starting December 31, 2014 and extended until June 30, 2018. Effective July 1,
2018, the monitoring of the leverage ratio was implemented as a Pillar I minimum requirement.

Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR)

BSP Circular No. 905 provides the implementing guidelines on LCR and disclosure standards that are consistent
with the Basel III framework. The LCR is the ratio of high-quality liquid assets to total net cash outflows which
should not be lower than 100.00%. Compliance with the LCR minimum requirement commenced on January 1,
2018 with the prescribed minimum ratio of 90.00% for 2018 and 100.00% effective January 1, 2019.

Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR)

On June 6, 2018, the BSP issued BSP Circular No.1007 covering the implementing guidelines on the adoption of
the Basel III Framework on Liquidity Standards – NSFR. The NSFR is aimed to promote long-term resilience
against liquidity risk by requiring banks to maintain a stable funding profile in relation to the composition of its
assets and off-balance sheet activities. It complements the LCR, which promotes short term resilience of a bank's
liquidity profile. Banks shall maintain an NSFR of at least 100 percent (100%) at all times. The implementation
of the minimum NSFR shall be phased in to help ensure that covered banks can meet the standard through
reasonable measures without disrupting credit extension and financial market activities. An observation period
was set from July 1 to December 31, 2018. Effective, January 1, 2019, banks shall comply with the prescribed
minimum ratio of 100%.

The details of CAR, BLR, LCR and NSFR of the Group and the Bank, as reported to the BSP, are discussed in
Note 4 of the Audited Financial Statements as presented in Exhibit 4.

Applicable Tax Regulations

Under Philippine tax laws, the RBU of the Parent Company and its domestic subsidiaries are subject to percentage
and other taxes (presented as ‘Taxes and licenses’ in the statement of income) as well as income taxes. Percentage
and other taxes paid consist principally of gross receipts tax (GRT) and documentary stamp tax (DST). Income
taxes include 30.00% regular corporate income tax (RCIT) and 20.00% final taxes paid, which is a final
withholding tax on gross interest income from government securities and other deposit substitutes. Interest
allowed as a deductible expense is reduced by an amount equivalent to 33.00% of interest income subjected to
final tax.
14

Current tax regulations also provide for the ceiling on the amount of EAR expense (Note 25) that can be
claimed as a deduction against taxable income. Under the regulation, EAR expense allowed as a deductible
expense for a service company like the Parent Company and some of its subsidiaries is limited to the actual EAR
paid or incurred but not to exceed 1.00% of net revenue. The regulations also provide for MCIT of 2.00% on
modified gross income and allow a NOLCO. The MCIT and NOLCO may be applied against the Group’s
income tax liability and taxable income, respectively, over a three-year period from the year of inception.

FCDU offshore income (income from non-residents) is tax-exempt while gross onshore income (income from
residents) is subject to 10.00% income tax. In addition, interest income on deposit placements with other
FCDUs and offshore banking units (OBUs) is taxed at 15.00%. Income derived by the FCDU from foreign
currency-denominated transactions with non-residents, OBUs, local commercial banks including branches of
foreign banks is tax-exempt while interest income on foreign currency loans from residents other than OBUs or
other depository banks under the expanded system is subject to 10.00% income tax.

The applicable taxes and tax rates for the foreign branches of the Bank are discussed in Note 28 of the Audited
Financial Statements as presented in Exhibit 4.

Research and Development Costs

For the last three fiscal years, the Bank has not incurred any expenses for research and development.

Employees

Metrobank had 13,718 employees as of December 31, 2020. By year-end 2021, the Bank projects to have 13,986
employees.

Officers Rank and File Total


As of year-end 2020:
AVPs and up 574 574
Senior Managers and down 6,127 7,017 13,144
6,701 7,017 13,718
By year-end 2021 (projected):
AVPs and up 586 586
Senior Managers and down 6,318 7,082 13,400
6,904 7,082 13,986

Majority of the registrant’s rank and file employees are members of the employees’ union. Benefits or incentive
arrangements of the rank and file employees are covered by the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) that is
effective for three years. The Bank continues to ensure that its employees are properly compensated. The latest
CBA that is effective for three years beginning January 2019 will end in December 2021. The Bank has not
experienced any labor strikes and the management of the Bank considers its relations with its employees and the
Union to be harmonious.

Risk Management

The Group has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments: (a) credit; (b) liquidity; and
(c) market risks. Detailed discussions and analysis on Risk Management of the Group are disclosed in Note 4 of
the Audited Financial Statements as presented in Exhibit 4.

Risk management framework

The Board of Directors (BOD) has overall responsibility for the oversight of the Bank’s risk management process.
On the other hand, the risk management processes of the subsidiaries are the separate responsibilities of their
respective BOD. Supporting the BOD in this function are certain Board-level committees such as Risk Oversight
Committee (ROC), Audit Committee (AC) and senior management committees through the Executive Committee
and Asset and Liability Committee (ALCO) among others.
15

The ROC, which is composed primarily of independent members of the BOD, is responsible for overseeing the
Bank’s risk infrastructure, the adequacy and relevance of risk policies, and the compliance to defined risk appetite
and levels of exposure. The ROC is assisted in this responsibility by the Risk Management Group (RSK). The
RSK undertakes the implementation and execution of the Bank’s Risk Management framework which involves the
identification, assessment, control, monitoring and reporting of risks.

The Bank and its subsidiaries manage their respective financial risks separately. The subsidiaries have their own
risk management processes but are structured similar to that of the Bank. To a certain extent, the respective risk
management programs and objectives are the same across the Group. The risk management policies adopted by
the subsidiaries and affiliates are aligned with the Bank’s risk policies. To further promote compliance with PFRS
and Basel III, the Bank created a Risk Management Coordinating Council (RMCC) composed of risk officers of
the Bank and its financial institution subsidiaries.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its
contractual obligations. The Group manages and controls credit risk by setting limits on the amount of risk it is
willing to accept for individual counterparties, related groups of borrowers, market segments, and industry
concentrations, and by monitoring exposures in relation to such limits, among others. The same is true for
treasury-related activities. Each business unit is responsible for the quality of its credit portfolio and for
monitoring and controlling all credit risks in its portfolio. Regular reviews and audits of business units and credit
processes are undertaken by the RSK and Internal Audit Group, respectively.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the current and prospective risk to earnings or capital arising from the inability to meet obligations
when they come due. This may be caused by the inability to liquidate assets or to obtain funding to meet liquidity
needs. The Group manages its liquidity risk by holding adequate stock of high quality liquid assets, analyzing net
funding requirements over time, diversifying funding sources and contingency planning. To measure the
prospective liquidity needs, the Group uses Maximum Cumulative Outflow (MCO), a liquidity gap tool to project
short-term as well as long-term cash flow expectations on a business-as-usual condition. The MCO is generated by
distributing the cash flows of the Group’s assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items to time bands based on cash
flow expectations such as contractual maturity, nature of the account, behavioral patterns, projections on business
strategies, and/or optionality of certain products. The incorporation of behavioral cash flow assumptions and
business projections or targets results in a dynamic gap report which realistically captures the behavior of the
products and creates a forward-looking cash flow projection.

Cash flows from assets are considered as cash inflows, while cash flows from liabilities are considered cash
outflows. The net cash flows are determined for each given time period. If the inflows exceed the outflows, the
Group is said to have a positive liquidity gap or excess funds for the given time bucket. Conversely, if the outflows
exceed the inflows, the Group is said to have a negative liquidity gap or funding need for the given time bucket.

The MCO is monitored regularly to ensure that it remains within the set limits. The Bank generates and monitors
daily its MCO, while the subsidiaries generate the report at least monthly. The liquidity profile of the Group is
reported monthly to the Parent Company’s ALCO and ROC. To supplement the business-as-usual scenario
parameters reflected in the MCO report, the Group also conducts liquidity stress testing to determine the impact of
extreme factors, scenarios and/or events to the Group’s liquidity profile. Liquidity stress testing exercise is
performed quarterly on a per firm basis, and at least annually on the Group-wide level.

Market Risk

Market risk is the possibility of loss to future earnings, fair values, or future cash flows that may result from
changes in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of
changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and other market factors. Market risk originates from holdings in
foreign currencies, debt securities, and derivatives transactions. Depending on the business model for the product,
i.e., whether they belong to the trading book or banking book, the Group applies different tools and processes to
manage market risk exposures. Risk limits, approved by the BOD, are enforced to monitor and control this risk.
RSK, as an independent body under the ROC, performs daily market risk analyses to ensure compliance to
policies and limits, while Treasury Group manages the asset/liability risks arising from both banking book and
trading operations in financial markets. The ALCO, chaired by the President, manages market risks within the
16

parameters approved by the BOD.

As part of group supervision, the Bank regularly coordinates with subsidiaries to monitor their compliance to their
respective risk tolerances and to ensure alignment of risk management practices. Each subsidiary has its own risk
management unit responsible for monitoring its market risk exposures. The Bank, however, requires regular
submission of market risk profiles which are presented to ALCO and ROC in both individual and consolidated
forms to provide senior management and ROC a holistic perspective, and ensure alignment of strategies and risk
appetite across the Group.

Market Risk - Trading Book


In measuring the potential loss in its trading portfolio, the Bank uses VaR. VaR is an estimate of the potential
decline in the value of a portfolio, under normal market conditions, for a given “confidence level” over a specified
holding period. The Bank measures and monitors the Trading Book VaR daily, and this value is compared against
the set VaR limit. Meanwhile, the Group VaR is monitored and reported monthly. The limitations of the VaR
methodology are recognized by supplementing VaR limits with other position and sensitivity limit structures and
by doing stress testing analysis. These processes address potential product concentration risks, monitor portfolio
vulnerability and give the management an early advice if an actual loss goes beyond what is deemed to be
tolerable to the Group and the Bank, even before the VaR limit is hit.

Stress testing is performed by the Bank on a quarterly basis and the results are reported to the ALCO and,
subsequently, to the ROC and BOD. On a Group-wide perspective, stress testing is done, at least, annually. The
results are reported by the Bank’s Risk Management Group to the BOD through ROC.

Market Risk - Banking Book


The Group has in place their own risk management system and processes to quantify and manage market risks in
the banking book. To the extent applicable, these are generally aligned with the Bank’s framework/tools.

Interest rate risk


The Group assesses interest rate risk in the banking book using measurement tools such as Interest Rate Repricing
Gap, Earnings-at-Risk (EaR), Delta Economic Value of Equity (ΔEVE), and Sensitivity Analysis.

Interest Rate Repricing Gap is a tool that distributes rate-sensitive assets and liabilities into pre-defined tenor
buckets according to time remaining to their maturity (if fixed rate) or repricing (if floating rate). Items lacking
definitive repricing schedule (e.g., current and savings account) and items with actual maturities that could vary
from contractual maturities (e.g., securities with embedded options) are assigned to repricing tenor buckets based
on analysis of historical patterns, past experience and/or expert judgment.

The Group calculates EaR using Historical Simulations (HS) approach, with one-year horizon and using five
years data. EaR is then derived as the 99th percentile biggest drop in net interest income.

Foreign currency risk


Foreign exchange risk is the probability of loss to earnings or capital arising from changes in foreign exchange
rates. Foreign currency liabilities generally consist of foreign currency deposits in the Group’s FCDU account.
Foreign currency deposits are generally used to fund the Group’s foreign currency-denominated loan and
investment portfolio in the FCDU. Banks are required by the BSP to match the foreign currency liabilities with
the foreign currency assets held in FCDUs. Outside the FCDU, the Group has additional foreign currency assets
and liabilities in its foreign branch network. The Group’s policy is to maintain foreign currency exposure within
acceptable limits and within existing regulatory guidelines.

Compliance with Lead Practice on Corporate Governance

In the midst of a pandemic, running a business is an unprecedented challenge for business leaders. The restrictions
imposed by the government in handling the COVID-19 outbreak raise significant challenges as regards to corporate
governance. The crisis presents complex issues on business operations like disruptions to meetings, risk management,
internal control, disclosure, etc. It is imperative to ensure that appropriate strategies are put in place to anticipate and
to mitigate the impact and ensure compliance with the rapidly evolving regulatory landscape.

Integrity, accountability, fairness and transparency, the four pillars upon which the Bank’s governance policies rest,
are maintained during these difficult times. The corporate governance framework as embodied in the Corporate
Governance Manual setting out the roles and responsibilities within the Bank as well as the practices and procedures
that are adopted is sustained to ensure that the organization remains to be governed with the highest standards of good
governance. These principles and values are continued to be observed in all our operations and dealings.

Board of Directors
A competent Board of Directors (Board) that has collective responsibilities for leadership and control of the Bank’s
affair ensuring its long-term sustainability and success heads the Bank. The Board sets the Corporate Governance tone
in the Bank by collectively directing the company’s affairs, whilst meeting the appropriate interest of shareholders and
stakeholders. It leads the process of developing and reviewing the Bank’s strategies annually. It oversees the
development, review and approval of the Bank’s mission vision, a sound corporate governance framework, strategic
and business plans, risk management, internal control system, financial performance and environmental, social and
governance issues. The detailed responsibilities of the Board are disclosed in the Corporate Governance Manual
posted on the company’s website through the Corporate Governance page.

The Board is comprised of a diverse group of proficient people who combine insight and good judgment in
implementing good governance. Diversity takes various forms and is inclusive of different elements such as gender,
expertise, policy-making experience, ethnicity and independence. The members of the Board possess integrity,
probity, physical & mental fitness, competence, education, financial literacy, training, diligence, knowledge and
experience relevant to the banking industry.

To adequately fulfill their responsibilities, the Board has separate and independent access to the corporate secretary
who manages the flow of information to the Board prior to the meetings.

Board Composition
The Bank consistently maintained the Board composition to twelve (12) directors. Ten (10) are non-executive
directors of which five (5) are independent including one (1) female independent director, a deliberate stance to
promote objectivity and strong element of independence in the Board. The number of independent director constitutes
42% of the Board, bringing focus, clear perspective and the ability to lead objective board discussions and better
decision-making.

The members of the Board are elected annually. In accordance with Bank’s By Laws, any stockholder may submit
nominations for directorial positions to represent their interest in promoting long-term value creation. The
Nominations Committee is responsible for screening and recommending candidates to the full Board, based on its
screening policies and parameters, including among others, alignment with the strategic directions of the Bank. The
Nominations Committee assesses the qualifications of the nominees as defined in the Bank’s By-laws and Corporate
Governance Manual and due consideration of the relevant regulations of BSP and SEC. The Board through its
Nominations Committee strives to ensure the optimal mix of skills and talent and balanced membership of the Board
to achieve its strategic objectives.

When identifying or screening potential candidates, the Committee may use whatever resources it deems appropriate,
including but not limited to, referrals from existing directors and officers, recommendations and suggestions from
stockholders. To the extent possible, they also make use of external databases or external search firms. Only
nominees whose names appear in the Final List of Candidates shall be eligible for election as director.

Directors are committed to actively engage in their role in the Board, with sufficient time to carry out the duties of the
Board and their Board committee membership. As a rule, the non-executive directors of the Board may concurrently
serve as directors only to a maximum of five (5) publicly listed companies, making sure however that the
shareholders’ legal right to vote and be voted directors remains inviolable. None of the Bank’s directors serve in more
than five (5) publicly listed companies.
20

The independent directors are independent of management and major shareholders. They have not engaged and do not
engage in any transaction with the institution or with any of its related companies or with any of its substantial
shareholders, whether by themselves or with other persons or through a firm of which they are partners or a company
of which they are directors or substantial shareholders, other than transactions which are conducted at arm’s-length
and could not materially interfere with or influence the exercise of their judgment. The independent directors, as a
rule, may serve for a maximum cumulative term of nine (9) years. After which, the independent director shall be
perpetually barred from re-election as such, but may continue to qualify for nomination and election as a regular
director. Reckoned from 2012 election, none of the independent directors have reached the maximum cumulative term
of more than nine (9) years.

In 2020, the Board approved the retirement of Mr. Rex C. Drilon II as a director. In his replacement, the Board
welcomed Mr. Philip G. Soliven as Independent Non-Executive Director effective May 28, 2020. With extensive
experience in banking and finance, he can bring valuable contributions, capabilities and exceptional leadership in the
Board.

The Chairman of the Board and the President


The roles of the Chairman of the Board and the President are separate but complementary positions that work together
for the good of the Bank. This split balances power, responsibility and accountability while preserving the independent
decision-making of the Board. Each has clearly defined responsibilities in the Bank’s By-Laws and Corporate
Governance Manual.

The Chairman of the Board provides leadership in the Board. He ensures effective functioning of the Board, including
maintaining a relationship of trust with Board members. In addition, the Chairman ensures a sound decision making
process and encourages and promotes critical discussions and makes sure that dissenting views can be expressed
within the decision-making process. On the other hand, the President exercises direct and active management of the
business and operations of the Bank, conducting the same according to the orders, resolutions and instructions of the
Board and according to his own discretion wherever the same is not expressly limited by such orders, resolutions and
instructions. He communicates and implements the vision, mission, values and overall strategy of the Bank and
promotes any organization change in relation to the same. He exercises general superintendence and direction over the
other officers and the employees of the Bank and to see to it that their respective duties are properly performed.

The Chairman of the Board is Arthur Ty while the President is Fabian S. Dee.

Board Meetings
Regularly scheduled Board meeting are held to keep directors up to date on the Bank’s performance as well as approve
strategies, appointments, and other decisions requiring their attention. The Regular Board meetings are held every
second Wednesday of each month. Special meetings may be called at any time by the Chairman, or, in his absence, by
the Vice Chairman, or pursuant to the written request of any four (4) directors. An organizational meeting is held
immediately after the Annual Stockholder’s Meeting (ASM) and the Board-level committees are reconstituted during
this meeting.

In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, Securities and Exchange Commission issued guidelines allowing participation in
corporate meetings through remote communication such as videoconferencing, teleconferencing, or other alternative
modes. To support the measures in controlling the spread of COVID-19 outbreak, at the start of the imposed
community quarantine, the Bank had transitioned the Board as well as the committee meetings from in-person to
virtual meetings with the use of videoconferencing tools. The Bank also created an alternative mode, safely accessible
through the internet or mobile technology, in providing the pertinent materials for discussion to address administrative,
technical and logistical issues of the current situation.

In 2020, the Board held a total of fourteen (14) meetings. The Board meeting attendance, which is at 100%, exhibits
active participation among the directors. For the first two months of 2020, the meetings were done face-to-face. After
the declaration of the community quarantine in March 2020, meetings were conducted through electronic means. This
did not hinder in any way the directors’ effective discharge of their responsibilities as board members.

Board-level Committees

Company’s Policies

Orientation Program for New Directors


In accordance with applicable SEC rules and expressly stated in the Bank’s CGM, orientation for first time directors
shall be for at least eight (8) hours. Each first-time director is provided with orientation kit, which contains a copy of
the Bank’s Articles of Incorporation, By-Laws, Code of Conduct, Bank’s CGM and applicable Board Committee
Charters. They are also provided with the general responsibilities and specific duties of the Board and of an individual
director. Directors are required to certify under oath that they have received copies and fully understand and accept
the general responsibilities and specific duties. In addition, each director certifies that he or she has all the prescribed
qualifications and none of the disqualification as a director.

Continuing Education
The Covid-19 global pandemic crisis is an adaptive and transformative challenge especially in keeping the Board well
informed of developments in the evolving corporate governance norms as well as being attuned to the rapidly
changing external situation. Given these challenges, the Bank still recognizes the value of continuing education for its
Directors.

For 2020, amidst the on-going crisis, the Bank ensures constant education of its Directors and key officers to keep
them abreast of updates in corporate governance standards to support their leadership roles, by taking advantage of
available public seminars via online platforms. As such, Directors and key officers attended the following webinars
provided by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (Introduction to Environmental and Social Risk Management System
Webinar), Institute of Corporate Director (Pilipinas: Aspire, Rise, Sustain Series "The Nexus of Climate Change and
Sustainable Development", "Integrating Climate Risks in Corporate Strategy" and "Cultivating Business Impact
Through Sustainability Reporting") and Association of Bank Compliance Officers (Risk based Approach:
Implementing an Enterprise-wide ML/TF Risk Assessment Process), among others.

Corporate Governance Programs Attended by the Board of Directors.


For 2020, in its letter dated 12 October 2020, Metrobank, as well as its group and subsidiaries, requested the
Securities and Exchange Commission (“the Commission”) for the deferment of its compliance with the annual four (4)
hour Corporate Governance training of its directors and key officers due to the disruption brought by the COVID-19
pandemic. The Commission granted the request in its letter dated 09 November 2020.

Corporate Governance Manual


Metrobank has a strong corporate governance framework that is embodied in the Corporate Governance Manual
(CGM), which sets out the roles and responsibilities within the Bank and the practices and procedures that are adopted
to ensure that the organization is directed with the highest standards of good governance.

The CGM serves as a practical toolkit designed to help implement good governance practices in the institution. It is
periodically updated to guarantee that it remains relevant and in alignment with new regulatory issuances and best
industry practices. The Bank’s structures and processes ensure that business is conducted ethically and comply with
applicable laws and regulations. The Board, Management, Officers and Staff of the Bank fully commit themselves to
the principles and practices contained in the Manual and acknowledge that the same will guide them in the
development and achievement of the Bank’s corporate goals. Our staunch duty to safeguard the long-term interest of
our shareholders and all other stakeholders translates into a corporate culture that embraces good governance practices
and fiduciary duties made manifest by the Board, Senior Management and down to all other employees.

The Manual was revised to include changes in the regulations and approved by the Board on 24 August 2020. To
enforce bank-wide compliance, a copy of the Board-approved Manual on Corporate Governance is available in the
Bank’s Insight Online (intranet) for easy access by the Board, Management and all employees of the Bank. Likewise,
it is posted in the Bank’s website accessible to the public.

Code of Conduct and Ethics for Bank Directors


In today’s environment, stakeholders have high expectations that companies are operating in accordance with good
corporate governance practices. As such, the Bank is unwavering to conduct its business with the highest ethical
standard of fairness, accountability and transparency, taking into account the interest of all stakeholders. These values
are the guiding principles of good corporate governance adopted by the Bank in its Code of Conduct and Ethics for
Directors.
25

The Code of Conduct and Ethics for Directors articulates the standard of conduct for ensuring the proper discharge of
duties and responsibilities, basic principle that a director should not use his position to make profit or to acquire
benefit or advantage for himself and/or his related interests, avoiding situations that would compromise his
impartiality, maintaining professional integrity, enhancement of skills, knowledge and understanding of bank
activities, etc.

The Code is properly disseminated to directors. The Code can be accessed by both internal and external stakeholders
as it is posted in the Bank’s intranet and company’s website through the Corporate Governance page.

Code of Conduct for Employees


In place also is the Bank’s Code of Conduct for employees which includes the principles of ensuring the proper
discharge of duties and responsibilities, the avoidance of conflict of interest between the Bank’s business and personal
activities, the preservation of confidential information which mandates adoption of every practicable measure at all
times and the prohibition of direct or indirect offering or receiving by an employee of any gift, gratuity, other payment
or entertainment from any person, be it a client, vendor, supplier, business partner or subordinate, when the gift might
affect the employee’s judgment or actions in the performance of his/her duties.

The Human Resource Management Group (HRMG) has disseminated the Bank of Code of Conduct to all employees
including the new hires. HRMG also regularly circulates core advisories which serve as a reminder on the values that
the Bank wishes to foster by its employees. Both internal and external stakeholders can access the Bank’s Code of
Conduct for Employees as it is posted in the Bank’s intranet and company’s website through the Corporate
Governance page.

Performance Evaluation and Self-Assessment


The best measure of the Board effectiveness is through an assessment process. Metrobank conducts its annual
performance assessment of the Board, Chairman of the Board, President, Board Committees and each of the individual
directors using Board-approved rating sheets.

The Board conducts its annual evaluation process through the Corporate Governance and Compensation Committee. It
has adopted an internal self-rating system and procedures to determine and measure compliance vis-à-vis good
corporate governance principles and practices as prescribed in the Code of Corporate Governance: (i) Each Director
self-rates and collectively rates the Board, the Chairman of the Board and the President; (ii) Corporate Governance,
Audit, Risk Oversight and other Board committees conduct self-rating. The performance rating sheet normally
circulated on paper or online using questionnaires that are tailor-made to the Bank’s needs and objectives. This
evaluation process allows the Board to consider the accomplishments of individuals and the group of individuals
within the Board and this serves as an avenue to revisit existing process or areas in need of improvement within the
Board.

In July 2020, the Corporate Governance and Compensation Committee Secretary presented summary results of the
self-assessments and evaluation covering the performance of the different key persons: Board of Directors, Individual
Directors, Chairman, President and Board-Level Committees of the Bank to the Corporate Governance Compensation
Committee and endorsed to the Board. The assessment showed that the Bank’s key persons possess the right mix of
backgrounds and competencies to fulfill their duties.

In line with the SEC rules and global best practices, the self-assessment exercise of the Bank is supported by an
external facilitator every three (3) years. The Corporate Governance and Compensation Committee in its meeting on
October 13, 2020, and the President, approved the engagement of the Bank of a third party facilitator that shall
conduct Board effectiveness review. For 2020, the Bank commissioned Reyes Tacandong & Co to facilitate the Board
effectiveness evaluation in compliance with the SEC Code of Corporate Governance, and to further align its
governance framework with the principles of the said Code and global best practices. This will provide an independent
review of the effectiveness of the Board and the efficiency of the execution of the roles and responsibilities of the
Board under existing governance arrangements, taking into account the review, communication, and reportorial
requirements and procedures within the Board and between the Board and Management.

Fair Business Transactions & Managing Conflicts of Interest


The Bank has adopted the Anti-Bribery and Corruption Policy, which requires the directors and employees to conduct
business in accordance with the highest possible standards of ethics, honesty, accountability and good governance. The
Bank does not tolerate any form of bribery or corruption to obtain an unfair advantage. Directors, officers and
employees are prohibited in taking advantage of their positions in the Bank to directly or indirectly derive personal
gain or profit.
26

The members of the Board conduct fair business transactions with the Bank and ensure that personal interest does not
bias Board decisions. All directors are expected to act ethically at all times, notify promptly of any material facts or
potential conflict of interest and take appropriate corrective action. Employees are expected to effectively manage their
personal affairs and avoid any situation or business endeavors arising from associations, interest or relationships that
may lead to conflict or potential conflict between their personal interest and of the Bank.

It is also part of the Bank’s corporate governance framework that all related parties are properly identified and related
party transactions are vetted and approved either by Related Party Transactions Management Committee (RPTMC), a
management-level committee composed of senior officers or the Related Party Transactions Committee (RPTC), a
Board-level committee composed of independent directors, depending on the materiality threshold set by the Bank.
Directors and officers with personal interest in the transaction shall abstain from the discussion, approval and
management of transaction. No director or officer shall participate in the RPTC or RPTMC or Board discussion of a
related party transaction for which he, she or any member of his or her close family or related interest is involved,
including transactions of subordinates, except in order to provide material information on the related party transaction.
The material related party transactions that reach ten percent (10%) or higher of the Bank’s total consolidated assets
are required to be evaluated by an appointed external independent party to ensure the fairness of the terms. All acts of
the Board, including related party transactions, are confirmed by the majority vote of the Bank’s stockholders during
the Annual Stockholders’ Meeting.

Policy on Insider Trading


In accordance with the Bank’s Insider Trading Policy, the Reporting Insiders and his Associates as defined in the
policy, shall not sell or buy Metrobank shares of stock during the period within which Material Non-public
Information is obtained and up to two (2) trading days after the Information is disclosed. All officers and employees
involved in the transaction shall maintain the level of confidentiality consistent with ethical standards and in
compliance with the insider trading policy even prior to Board approval.

In case of change in the beneficial ownership of Metrobank shares (e.g., sale, purchase, inheritance, transfer of
residence, etc.), the Reporting Insider shall accomplish and submit a scanned copy of the Statement of Changes in
Beneficial Ownership of Securities on the next trading day from the date of the change in the beneficial ownership
pursuant to the requirements of the SEC and the PSE.

Whistle Blowing Policy


It is the goal of the Bank to develop an ethical corporate culture that aims to control and eliminate wrongdoings and
wrongdoers from the organization. The Bank recognizes the importance of whistleblowing in both detecting and
deterring acts of fraud, malpractice, conflict of interest or violation of internal/regulatory policies, procedures and
controls. Complaints or concerns may be filed through the Bank’s website or sent via an e-mail
([email protected]) or text hotline (+639427471359), without fear of retaliation as the identity of
the reporting employee/stakeholders is not required to be disclosed.

The Head of Internal Audit Group is the designated recipient of complaints from the reporting employees and other
stakeholders. Consistent with the principle of good governance, the Chief Audit Officers report to the Board’s Audit
Committee for any reported matters.

Customer/Creditor’s Welfare
In Metrobank, Customer Protection is part of the Bank’s culture. It is not a responsibility of only one person or a
single unit. It is a collective and shared responsibility of each and everyone, from the Board, to Management, and to all
employees.

The five pillars of consumer protection standards namely: a) Disclosure and Transparency; b) Protection of client
information; c) Fair treatment; d) Effective Recourse and 5) Financial Education and Awareness, govern the conduct
of the Bank in dealing with its customers and creditors. As such, the Customer Protection Policy Manual is created to
ensure that customer protection is inherent in the day-to-day operations, providing the foundation in ensuring the
Bank’s adherence to customer protection standards of conduct. The Board, through the Executive Committee, provides
effective oversight of the Bank’s Financial Customer Protection while the Senior Management, through the Customer
Experience Committee, ensures that the Bank developed a Customer Protection Risk Management System.

The Bank continuously adapt to regulatory requirements particularly on standardizing the process in the handling of
complaints across all segments, redefining the turnaround time in resolving incidents to meet the client’s expectation.
In compliance with BSP Circular No. 949, the Bank also has a Social Media Risk Management Policy that provides
27

guidance to covered individuals in the business and legal risks associated with the use of social media. Specifically,
these rules require respecting co-workers privacy, respecting customer privacy, protecting confidentiality and security,
safeguarding and proper use of the Bank’s information and assets.

Stockholders’ Rights and Protection of Minority Stockholders’ Interests


In accordance with the Bank’s CGM, the Bank treats all its shareholders fairly and equitably, and also recognizes,
protects and facilitates the exercise and their rights. The Board respects the rights of the stockholders as provided for
in the Corporation Code. It promotes transparency and fairness in conducting annual and special stockholders’
meeting. The Bank encourages active shareholders to participate in the meeting by sending Notice of Annual and
Special Shareholders’ meeting with sufficient relevant information. The notice for the Bank’s 2020 Annual
Stockholders Meeting (ASM) was published and distributed to all stockholders as of record date of May 7, 2020
pursuant to the SEC rules of sending notices of at least twenty (21) days before the meeting. If they cannot attend, they
are apprised ahead of time of their right to appoint a proxy. Subject to the requirements of the By-Laws, the exercise
of the right shall not be unduly restricted and any doubt about the validity of a proxy should be resolved in the
stockholder’s favor. For 2020, since mass gatherings are discouraged, the ASM was live streamed via Cisco WebEx
app to ensure the health and safety of the participants. The stockholders who participated pre-registered at
[email protected]. The Minutes of the Annual Stockholders’ Meeting was available and posted in
the Bank’s website five (5) business days from the end of the meeting.

Every stockholder entitled to vote on a particular question or matter involved is entitled to one (1) vote for each share
of stock in his name. Cumulative voting is allowed provided that the total votes cast by a stockholder shall not exceed
the number of shares registered in his name as of the record date multiplied by the number of directors to be elected.
Matters submitted to stockholders for the ratification shall be decided by the required vote of stockholders present in
person or by proxy. The Bank has not solicited any discretionary authority to cumulative voting.

Majority vote is required for the following: (a) approval of the minutes of the annual meeting of the stockholders; (b)
ratification of corporate acts; (c) election of external auditors. On the election of directors, nominees receiving the
highest number of votes shall be declared elected following the provision of the Corporation Code. SGV & Co.
validated all votes cast in the Bank’s 2020 ASM.

Policy on Health, Safety and Welfare of Employees


The Bank understands the magnitude of a safe and healthy workplace during a pandemic; as such, the Bank has
instituted health and safety protocols that are aligned with Department of Health (DOH) and the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) on the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic. It is committed to mitigation and prevention
strategy in response to the Covid-19 pandemic to ensure the health and safety of each Metrobanker. Employees have
been properly guided through various communications on good hygiene and appropriate disinfection procedures;

higher by P14.65 billion from P309.55 billion to P324.20 billion.

Cash and Other Cash Items increased by P5.51 billion or 16.73%. Due from BSP which represents 12.42% of the
Group’s total assets increased by 38.60% due to the net effect of the increase in overnight deposit facility placement
and term deposit with the BSP and lower reserve requirement. Due from Other Banks decreased by P16.53 billion or
30.19% as a result of the net movements in the balances maintained with various local and foreign banks. Interbank
Loans Receivable and SPURA went up by P7.22 billion or 10.0% due to the P20.25 billion increase in interbank loans
receivable reduced by the P13.03 billion decrease in securities under resale agreement with the BSP.

Total investment securities which consisted of FVTPL, FVOCI and securities at amortized cost and represents 27.30%
and 21.05% of the Group’s total assets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, went up by P154.27 billion or
29.90%. FVTPL securities consist of HFT securities and derivative assets amounting to P65.71 billion and P11.85
billion, respectively, as of December 31, 2020 and P53.38 billion and P8.49 billion, respectively, as of December 31,
2019. The P366.93 billion increase in FVOCI securities was mainly due to the net effect of the increases in
investments in treasury notes and bonds (P230.56 billion), treasury bills (P81.50 billion) and BSP bonds (P30.05
billion). In 2020, the Group disposed of investment securities at amortized cost as discussed in Note 8 of the audited
financial statements of the Group as presented in Exhibit B.

Net loans and receivables, representing 51.03% and 60.53% of the Group’s total assets as of December 31, 2020 and
2019, respectively, went down by P230.64 billion or 15.55% due to lower portfolios of corporate, commercial and
consumer loans. Investments in Associates and a Joint Venture went down by P0.34 billion or 5.20% due to lower net
income and other comprehensive income of the associates and a joint venture. Deferred Tax Assets increased by
P3.52 billion or 33.45% due to movements on temporary tax differences. Other Assets decreased by P2.39 billion or
15.35% from P15.57 billion to P13.18 billion primarily due to the decreases in interoffice float items and creditable
withholding tax.
34

Deposit liabilities represent 84.69% and 80.39% of the consolidated total liabilities as of December 31, 2020 and
2019, respectively, wherein, low cost deposits represent 72.97% and 62.86% of the Group’s total deposits,
respectively. The Group’s deposit level, sourced by the Bank, PSBank and MBCL reached P1.80 trillion as of
December 31, 2020, an increase of P83.07 billion or 4.85% from P1.71 trillion as of December 31, 2019. The
increment came from demand and savings by P103.51billion and P130.35 billion, respectively, while time deposits
went down by P142.79 billion. Further, the P8.00 billion long-term negotiable certificates of deposits of the Parent
Company had matured in April 2020.

Bills Payable and SSURA representing 6.58% and 11.17% of the Group’s total liabilities as of December 31, 2020 and
2019, respectively, went down by P98.67 billion or 41.41% due to the net effect of lower borrowings from foreign
banks by P38.43 billion, local banks by P7.81 billion and deposit substitutes by P53.99 billion offset by the P1.57
billion increase in SSURA. Derivative Liabilities which represent mark-to-market of foreign currency forwards,
interest rate swaps, cross currency swaps, credit default swaps and foreign currency options with negative fair value
increased by P6.04 billion or 81.30%.

The decrease of P0.78 billion or 11.49% in Manager’s Checks and Demand Drafts Outstanding resulted from normal
banking operations of the Bank and PSBank. Income taxes payable decreased by P1.48 billion or 35.27% and
Accrued Interest and Other Expenses went down by P1.35 billion or 12.86% due to decrease in accruals of interest
expenses. Bonds payable increased by P10.91 billion or 13.56% on account of the P4.65 billion fixed rate bonds
issued by PSBank, the P10.50 billion fixed rate bonds and USD500 million senior unsecured notes net of the maturity
of P28.0 billion fixed rate bonds issued by the Parent Company. Details of these bonds are discussed in Note 19 of the
audited financial statements of the Group as presented in Exhibit B. On August 8, 2020, the Parent Company
redeemed its 2025 Notes ahead of its maturity, which caused the decrease in Subordinated Debts.

Non-equity Non-controlling Interest representing the portion of net income and net assets of the mutual fund
subsidiaries of FMIC not attributed to the Group went up by P1.76 billion or 26.89% due to the net effect of the
increase in income and the decrease in ownership of these mutual funds. Other Liabilities decreased by P3.35 billion
or 5.95% primarily due to the decreases in bills purchased contra (P3.10 billion), notes payable (maturity in 2020 of
the unsecured notes issued by ORIX Metro amounting to P2.59 billion) and marginal deposits (P0.77 billion) offset by
the increases in accounts payable (P2.59 billion) and miscellaneous liabilities (P2.84 billion).

Equity attributable to equity holders of the Parent Company increased by P14.65 billion or 4.73% mainly due to the net
income reported during the year and improvement in net unrealized gain on investment securities at FVOCI.

Results of Operations

For the year ended December 31, 2020, interest income went down by P8.40 billion or 7.23% resulting from lower
interest income on loans and receivables by P10.16 billion partially offset by the improvements in interest income on
investment securities by P0.54 billion and on interbank loans receivable, deposit with banks and others by P1.22
billion. Meanwhile, lower interest expense on deposit liabilities by P12.08 billion and on borrowings by P5.43 billion
accounted for the decrease of P17.51 billion or 44.67% in interest and finance charges. These resulted to a P9.11
billion or 11.83% improvement on net interest income.

Other operating income of P35.13 billion increased by P6.08 billion or 20.91% from P29.05 billion in 2019 on account
of higher net trading and securities and gain by P1.24 billion and foreign exchange gain by P0.61 billion net of the
decreases in fee-based income by P2.56 billion and miscellaneous income by P0.73 billion. The disposal of
investment securities at amortized cost by the Group in 2020 (as discussed in Note 8 of the audited financial
statements of the Group as presented in Exhibit B) resulted to a gain of P8.18 billion.

Total operating expenses increased by P2.21 billion or 3.82% from P57.91 billion to P60.12 billion with higher
compensation and fringe benefits by P1.18 billion or 4.99%, occupancy and equipment-related costs by P0.21 billion
or 11.41% and miscellaneous expenses by P1.10 billion or 6.66%. To recognize the impact of the current COVID-19
pandemic, the Group’s provision for credit and impairment losses was increased to P40.76 billion from P10.08 billion
in previous year. Provision for income tax was lower by P3.02 billion from P10.06 billion to P7.05 billion due to net
movements in corporate, final and deferred income taxes.

Income attributable to non-controlling interests went down to P0.14 billion from P0.82 billion or by P0.68 billion or
82.54% due to lower net income. The audited income attributable to equity holders of the Parent Company for the
35

year 2020 went down by P14.22 billion or 50.70% to P13.83 billion from the P28.06 billion net income reported in
2019.

Total comprehensive income went down by P13.22 billion from P32.54 billion to P19.32 billion for the year ended
December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, due to the net effect of the decrease in net income, lower net unrealized
gain recognized this year on FVOCI investments and the gain recognized in retirement liability. Total comprehensive
income attributable to equity holders of the Parent Company for the year ended December 31, 2020, went down to
P19.14 billion or by P12.07 billion from P31.21 billion for the same year in 2019.

Due from BSP which represents 8.98% of the Group’s total assets decreased by 8.39% due to the various reserve cuts
in 2019. Due from Other Banks increased by P8.97 billion or 19.57% as a result of the net movements in the balances
maintained with various local and foreign banks. Interbank Loans Receivable and SPURA went up by P21.46 billion

2018. The P91.23 billion increase in FVOCI securities was mainly due to the net effect of the increases in investments
in government bonds (P25.87 billion) and treasury notes and bonds (P71.01 billion). On the other hand, the P13.75
billion decrease in investment securities at amortized cost was due to various maturities and FMIC’s disposal of HTC
debt securities as discussed in Note 8 of the audited financial statements of the Group as presented in Exhibit B.

recognition by lessees of the assets and related liabilities for most leases on their balance sheets and subsequently
depreciates the lease assets and recognizes interest on the lease liabilities in their profit or loss. Upon adoption, initial
recognition of right-of-use asset classified under “Property and Equipment” amounted to P4.2 billion and lease
liability classified under “Other Liabilities” amounted to P4.5 billion.

Deposit liabilities represent 80.39% and 79.71% of the consolidated total liabilities as of December 31, 2019 and

swaps and foreign currency options with negative fair value increased by P0.89 billion or 13.61%.
36

The decrease of P0.76 billion or 10.03% in Manager’s Checks and Demand Drafts Outstanding resulted from normal
banking operations of the Bank and PSBank. Income taxes payable increased by P1.36 billion or 47.99% while
Accrued Interest and Other Expenses went up by P0.88 billion or 9.15% due to increase in accruals of other bank
expenses. Bonds payable increased by P49.74 billion or 161.80% on account of the P17.50 billion, P11.25 billion and

their 2024 Peso Notes amounting to P16.0 billion and P3.0 billion, respectively, ahead of its maturity, which caused
the decrease in Subordinated Debts.

Other Liabilities increased by P10.31 billion or 22.42% primarily due to the recognition of lease liability as a result of
the adoption of PFRS 16 (P4.04 billion) and increases in marginal deposits (P2.14 billion), bills purchased contra
(P1.92 billion) and accounts payable (P1.81 billion).

The P1.19 billion or 15.40% increase in equity of non-controlling interest was attributed to the net income generated
by the majority-owned subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2019 and the net effect of PSBank’s stock rights
in January 2019 and the increase in the ownership of the Bank. Equity attributable to equity holders of the Parent
Company increased by P26.59 billion or 9.40% mainly due to the net effect of the net income reported during the year
and improvement in net unrealized gain on FVOCI.

others by P0.23 billion. Meanwhile, higher interest expense on deposit liabilities by P4.44 billion and on borrowings
by P6.38 billion accounted for the increase of P10.82 billion or 38.15% in interest and finance charges. These resulted
to a P8.18 billion or 11.88% improvement on net interest income.

Other operating income of P29.05 billion increased by P6.14 billion or 26.82% from P22.91 billion in 2018 on account
of higher net trading and securities and foreign exchange gains by P6.52 billion and fee-based income by P1.57 billion
reduced by the P1.01 billion lower miscellaneous income.

impairment losses increased by P2.31 billion from P7.77 billion to P10.08 billion and provision for income tax was
higher by P2.32 billion from P7.75 billion to P10.06 billion due to net movements in corporate, final and deferred
income taxes.

Income attributable to non-controlling interests went down to P0.82 billion from P1.43 billion or by P0.61 billion or
42.61% due to decrease in ownership of minority particularly on MCC and PSBank.

Total comprehensive income went up by P11.76 billion from P20.78 billion to P32.54 billion for the year ended
December 31, 2018 and 2019, respectively, due to the net effect of the increase in net income; the net unrealized gain

controlling Interest representing the portion of net income and net assets of the mutual fund subsidiaries of FMIC not
attributed to the Group went down by P1.26 billion or 15.68% on account of the net decline in income of these mutual
funds.

Other Liabilities decreased by P12.91 billion or 21.92% primarily due to the settlement of the P14.80 billion liability
on the agreed purchase of 40% stake in MCC and the funding of the P3.40 billion retirement liability, partially offset

October 29, 2018.
38

Results of Operations

P18.22 billion net income for the year 2017.

Interest income improved by P16.86 billion or 21.00% resulting from higher interest income on loans and receivables
by P16.27 billion and on total investment securities by P0.72 billion net of the P0.14 billion decrease in interest
income on interbank loans and SPURA. Meanwhile, the increases in interest expense on deposit liabilities by P6.36
billion and on borrowings by P3.09 billion accounted for the increase of P9.45 billion or 49.95% in interest and
finance charges. These resulted to a P7.42 billion or 12.08% increase net interest income.

Other operating income of P22.91 billion increased by P0.76 billion or 3.45% from P22.15 billion in 2017 on account
of the increases in fee-based income by P1.65 billion, income from leasing by P0.12 billion and profit from disposal of
foreclosed properties by P0.30 billion, reduced by lower net trading and securities and foreign exchange gains by
P1.10 billion.

2017 under PAS 39 or increased by P0.26 billion or 3.50%. Total other operating expenses increased by P6.18 billion
or 13.02% as a result of the increases in compensation and fringe benefits by P2.15 billion or 10.63%, taxes and
licenses by P2.20 billion or 33.37% (as a result of changes on tax rates, particularly on documentary stamp taxes,
brought about by the implementation of the TRAIN law in 2018), occupancy and equipment-related expenses by P0.26
billion or 9.01% and miscellaneous expenses by P1.51 billion or 10.96%. Provision for income tax was lower by
P0.25 billion or 3.07% due to net movements in deferred income tax, corporate and final taxes.

Share in net income of associates and a joint venture increased by P0.19 billion or 26.85% due to higher net income of
certain associates while income attributable to non-controlling interest went down by P1.62 billion or 53.17% due to
the effect of the acquisition of the remaining 20% interest in MCC.

Total comprehensive income went up by P4.56 billion from P16.23 billion income in 2017 to P20.78 billion in 2018.
The variance was attributable to the higher net income of the Group and the lower net unrealized loss recognized on
investment securities. As a result, total comprehensive income attributable to equity holders of the Parent Company
went up to P19.67 billion or by P6.30 billion from P13.37 billion in 2017.

Market share price was at P80.95 from P101.40 as of December 31, 2017 with a market capitalization of P322.18

Key Variable and Other Qualitative and Quantitative Factors

Plans for 2021

Metrobank continues to reinforce its Core Values program and maintains the principles and standards espoused in its
Meaningful Banking campaign as the Bank navigates through a new operating environment under this pandemic to
deliver the “You’re in Good Hands” promise to each client. This commitment underpins the Bank’s continued focus
on sustaining market relevance, alongside continuous improvement in customer experience, products and services,
operational efficiency and people development. Moreover, the Bank aims to deepen its commitment to instill financial
discipline across new and underserved markets, and explore venues outside its current CSR activities by which it can

39

To adapt to an evolving environment, the Bank believes that fulfilling its promises will be dependent on a sustainable
culture transformation and change management program, a robust IT infrastructure, as well as sound control and risk
management practices. Thus, the Bank’s investments in people are further backed by investments in IT and
information security, process efficiencies, and risk and control systems.

Capital position

The Bank will continue to actively improve on the Group's strong capital position. The Bank has benefited from a
series of capital markets transactions to raise Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital.

In 2006, the Bank issued US$125.0 million Hybrid Tier 1 capital security in February and 173,618,400 common
shares at P38.00 per common share in October. In May 2010, the Bank raised an additional P5.0 billion in capital
through a private placement of common shares. In January 2011, the Bank raised approximately US$220.0 million
through a rights offer for 200 million common shares at the offer price of P50.00 per rights share. In August 2013, the
Bank increased its capital stock from P50 billion to P100 billion and on September 16, 2013, it issued a stock dividend
equivalent to 633,415,049 common shares (with a par value of P20) that was applied as payment of the required
subscription to the increase in capital stock. In April 2015, the Bank raised P32.0 billion through a rights offer for
435,371,720 common shares with par value of P20.00 priced at P73.50 per share. The newly issued shares were listed
on the PSE on April 7, 2015. Further, in April 2018, the Bank raised P60.0 billion through a rights offer for
799,842,250 common shares with par value of P20.00 priced at P75.00 per share. The newly issued shares were listed
on the PSE on April 12, 2018. In October 2019, the Bank increased its capital stock from P100 billion to P140 billion
and on November 26, 2019, it issued a stock dividend equivalent to 517,400,519 common shares (with a par value of
P20) that was applied as payment of the required subscription to the increase in capital stock, which further improved
the Bank’s capital position.

The Bank also issued Tier 2 instruments to boost its capital adequacy ratio. The Bank issued Basel II compliant Tier 2
subordinated notes in October 2007 for P8.5 billion with a coupon of 7.0%; in October 2008 for P5.5 billion with a
coupon of 7.75%; and in May 2009 for P4.5 billion with a coupon of 7.5%. With the advent of Basel III, the Bank
subsequently redeemed these previously issued subordinated debt issuances as they would not have been considered as
capital beginning January 1, 2014. The Bank exercised the call option on its P8.5 billion 7.0%; P5.5 billion 7.75% and
P4.5 billion 7.5% Lower Tier 2 Notes on October 22, 2012, October 4, 2013 and May 6, 2014, respectively. The early
redemptions of these instruments were in accordance with the terms and conditions of the notes when they were
originally issued. By redeeming the notes, the Bank avoided a step-up in the interest rate and the capital decay from
the instruments. In 2014, the Bank raised a total of P22.5 billion in subordinated debt wherein P16.0 billion was
issued on March 27, 2014 at a coupon rate of 5.375% and P6.5 billion on August 8, 2014 at 5.25%. The terms of the
notes contain a loss absorption feature, allowing them to be recognized as bank capital in accordance with Basel III
standards. The transactions were done in part to replace the Basel II Tier 2 notes which were redeemed on their call
option dates. As approved by the BSP on April 25, 2019, on June 27, 2019, the Bank redeemed its 2024 Peso Notes
amounting to P16.0 billion, ahead of its maturity. Likewise, on August 8, 2020, the Bank redeemed the 2025 Peso
Notes amounting to P6.5 billion, ahead of its maturity after approval by the BSP on May 7, 2020.

As part of the Group’s capital efficiency initiatives, the Group has been active in optimizing its allied and non-allied
undertakings. Among the initiatives include the sale of the Bank’s ownership in Toyota Motor Philippines
Corporation in tranches between 2012 and 2013 as well as the sale of FMIC’s holdings in Global Business Power
Corporation in tranches between 2013 and 2016 and FMIC’s holdings in Charter Ping An Insurance Corporation in
2014. In 2014, the Bank and PSBank also disposed of its holdings in Toyota Financial Services Philippines
Corporation. Altogether, these sales further improved the Bank’s capital adequacy under Basel III. As discussed in
Part I - Business item number 2 “Description of Business-Business of Registrant”, on March 13, 2019, the respective
BODs of the Bank and MCC approved the proposal to merge MCC into the Bank. The proposed merger was ratified
by the stockholders of the Bank on April 24, 2019, approved by the BSP on October 23, 2019, and approved by the
SEC on January 3, 2020.

As of December 31, 2020, the Group’s Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) and Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) Ratio are
20.15% and 19.28%, respectively, both well above the regulatory requirements.

2020 Economic Performance

2020 was a very challenging year for the global economy amid the triple shock brought by the COVID-19 pandemic: a
health crisis, strict lockdown measures, and a global recession of unprecedented scale. The Philippines, along with
most of the world’s economies, fell into recession, with the full-year 2020 GDP contraction coming in at -9.5%, a
significant fall from the positive expansion of 6.0% in 2019. The sharp economic decline, especially in the second
quarter of the year, was mainly attributed to the steep dive in household spending, deep slump in capital formation,
and the collapse of external trade due to the impact of strict lockdown measures domestically and globally.

Full-year average inflation came in slightly higher at 2.6% compared to 2.5% in 2019 amid the faster annual increases
in some commodity groups towards the end of the year. The price of food, a heavily-weighted commodity, was higher
in the last quarter of the year as weather-related disturbances adversely affected domestic supply conditions.
Nevertheless, the full-year average still came in within the BSP’s target range of 2-4%.

Domestic interest rates remained low throughout 2020 on ample liquidity condition, benign inflation expectations, and
subsequent policy rate cuts from the US Federal Reserve and the BSP. Central banks in almost all of the countries
adopted a loose monetary policy stance to support their own economies. The Fed slashed the federal funds rate to near-
zero in March and has been buying about $120 billion in government-backed debt every month. Meanwhile the BSP
cut key policy rates by a total of 200 basis points and deployed regulatory relief measures to complement fiscal
stimulus and help stimulate the domestic economy.

Risk appetite was the key driver of the USD well into the end of 2020. Demand for the USD as a safe haven declined
amid improving global market risk appetite especially for emerging market assets. The Philippine peso made strong
gains and remained within the P48 level from the P50.69 close at the start of the year. The peso was even hailed as
Asia’s best performing currency last year.

To overcome the adverse impact of the pandemic on the domestic economy, the government launched a
socioeconomic strategy to address the Covid-19 pandemic which included fiscal and monetary measures. On the fiscal
side, the National Government approved several stimulus packages aimed at helping the highly-vulnerable sectors. On
the monetary side, the BSP slashed key policy rates by a total of 200 basis points and deployed regulatory relief
measures to complement fiscal stimulus and help stimulate the economy.

The near-term outlook for the global economy remains highly uncertain amid the renewed infection waves and new
variants of the coronavirus. Nevertheless, a likely softening in the 1st half of 2021 is seen to usher in a recovery in the
2nd half as the roll-out of vaccination programs in different countries gain pace. Furthermore, the unprecedented
policy support by governments is seen to continue and will become more targeted and flexible so as to adapt to fast-
changing conditions.

For the Philippine economy, support will still largely come from the National Government and the BSP. A return of
consumer confidence -- or the confidence of consumers to once again do both discretionary and non-discretionary
spending -- will play a large role in the economic recovery because fundamentally, consumer spending is what drives
the economic engines of the Philippines

Liquidity

To ensure that funds are more than adequate to meet its obligations, the Bank proactively monitors its liquidity
position daily. Based on this system of monitoring, the Bank does not anticipate having any cash flow or liquidity
problem within the next twelve months. As of December 31, 2020, the contractual maturity profile shows that the
Bank has at its disposal about P1.192 trillion of cash inflows in the next twelve (12) months from its portfolio of cash,
placements with banks, debt securities and receivable from customers. This will cover 76.29% of the P1.561 trillion
total deposits that may mature during the same period. These cash inflows exclude securities booked in FVTPL and
FVOCI whose maturities beyond one (1) year but may easily be liquidated in an active secondary market. Inclusive of
these securities, the total current assets will cover 101.90% of the total deposits that may mature within one (1) year.
On the other hand, historical balances of deposits showed that no substantial portion has been withdrawn in one year.

ITEM 12 – CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

The Group has several business relationships with related parties. Transactions with such parties are made in the
ordinary course of business and on substantially same terms, including interest and collateral, as those prevailing at the
time for comparable transactions with other parties. These transactions also did not involve more than the normal risk
of collectibility and did not present other unfavorable conditions.

The Bank has a Related Party Transactions Committee (RPTC) and a Related Party Transactions Management
Committee (RPTMC), both of which are created to assist the BOD in ensuring that transactions with related parties are
reviewed to assess risks and are subjected to appropriate restrictions to ensure that these are conducted at arm’s-length
terms and that corporate or business resources of the Parent Company are not misappropriated or misapplied. After
appropriate review, RPTMC (through RPTC) and RPTC disclose all information and endorses to the BOD with
recommendations, the proposed related party transactions. Major subsidiaries, which include FMIC, PSBank and
59

MBCL, have their own respective RPTCs which assist their respective BODs in ensuring that transactions with related
parties are reviewed to assess risks and are subjected to appropriate restrictions to ensure that these are conducted at
arm’s-length terms and that their corporate or business resources are not misappropriated or misapplied.

Moreover, in the ordinary course of business, the Group has loan transactions with investees and with certain directors,
officers, stockholders and related interests (DOSRI) based on BSP Circular No. 423 dated March 15, 2004, as amended.
Existing banking regulations limit the amount of individual loans to DOSRI, 70.00% of which must be secured, to the
total of their respective deposits and book value of their respective investments in the lending company within the
Group. In the aggregate, loans to DOSRI generally should not exceed the respective total equity or 15.00% of the
respective total loan portfolio, whichever is lower, of the Parent Company, PSBank, FMIC, and ORIX Metro.

Transactions with related parties and with DOSRI are discussed in Note 31 and 37 of the audited financial statements
of the Group as presented in Exhibit 4.

In 2020, none of the Bank’s directors had self-dealing/related party transactions with the Bank directly by themselves
that required disclosure.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

The Board of Directors and Stockholders


Metropolitan Bank & Trust Company
Metrobank Plaza, Sen. Gil Puyat Avenue
Urdaneta Village, Makati City
Metro Manila, Philippines

Report on the Consolidated and Parent Company Financial Statements

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Metropolitan Bank & Trust Company and its
subsidiaries (the Group) and the parent company financial statements of Metropolitan Bank & Trust
Company (the Parent Company), which comprise the consolidated and parent company statements of
financial position as at December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the consolidated and parent company
statements of income, consolidated and parent company statements of comprehensive income,
consolidated and parent company statements of changes in equity and consolidated and parent company
statements of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020, and notes to
the consolidated and parent company financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting
policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated and parent company financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Group and the Parent Company as at December 31,
2020 and 2019, and their financial performance and their cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 2020, in accordance with Philippine Financial Reporting Standards (PFRS).

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with Philippine Standards on Auditing (PSAs). Our
responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit
of the Consolidated and Parent Company Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent
of the Group and the Parent Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics for Professional
Accountants in the Philippines (Code of Ethics) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to
our audit of the consolidated and parent company financial statements in the Philippines, and we have
fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our
audit of the consolidated and parent company financial statements of the current period. These matters
were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated and parent company financial statements as
a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.

We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the
Consolidated and Parent Company Financial Statements section of our report, including in relation to
these matters. Accordingly, our audit included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated and parent company financial
statements. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures performed to address the
matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying consolidated and parent
company financial statements.

Applicable to the audit of the consolidated and parent company financial statements

Allowance for Credit Losses


The Group’s and the Parent Company’s application of the expected credit loss (ECL) model in calculating
the allowance for credit losses on loans and receivables is significant to our audit as it involves the
exercise of significant management judgment. Key areas of judgment include: segmenting the Group’s
and the Parent Company’s credit risk exposures; determining the method to estimate ECL; defining
default; identifying exposures with significant deterioration in credit quality, taking into account
extension of payment terms and payment holidays provided as a result of the coronavirus pandemic;
determining assumptions to be used in the ECL model such as the counterparty credit risk rating, the
expected life of the financial asset, expected recoveries from defaulted accounts, and impact of any
financial support and credit enhancements extended by any party; and incorporating forward-looking
information, including the impact of the coronavirus pandemic, in calculating ECL.

Allowance for credit losses as of December 31, 2020 for the Group and the Parent Company amounted to
=55.2 billion and =
P P44.4 billion, respectively. Provision for credit losses of the Group and the Parent
Company in 2020 amounted to = P40.8 billion and =
P32.7 billion, respectively.

Refer to Notes 2, 3 and 15 of the financial statements for the disclosure on the details of the allowance for
credit losses using the ECL model.

Audit response
We obtained an understanding of the board approved methodologies and models used for the Group’s and
the Parent Company’s different credit exposures and assessed whether these considered the requirements
of PFRS 9, Financial Instruments to reflect an unbiased and probability-weighted outcome, and to
consider time value of money and the best available forward-looking information.

*SGVFSM005911*
A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited
-3-

We (a) assessed the Group’s and the Parent Company’s segmentation of its credit risk exposures based on
homogeneity of credit risk characteristics; (b) tested the definition of default and significant increase in
credit risk criteria against historical analysis of accounts, credit risk management policies and practices in
place, and management’s assessment of the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the counterparties;
(c) tested the Group’s and the Parent Company’s application of internal credit risk rating system,
including the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the borrowers, by reviewing the ratings of sample
credit exposures; (d) assessed whether expected life is different from the contractual life by testing the
maturity dates reflected in the Group’s and the Parent Company’s records and considering management’s
assumptions regarding future collections, advances, extensions, renewals and modifications; (e) tested
loss given default by inspecting historical recoveries and related costs, write-offs and collateral
valuations, and the effects of any financial support and credit enhancements provided by any party;
(f) tested exposure at default considering outstanding commitments and repayment scheme; (g) checked
the forward-looking information used for overlay through statistical test and corroboration using publicly
available information and our understanding of the Group’s and the Parent Company’s lending portfolios
and broader industry knowledge, including the impact of the coronavirus pandemic; and (h) tested the
effective interest rate used in discounting the expected loss.

Further, we checked the data used in the ECL models by reconciling data from source system reports to
the data warehouse and from the data warehouse to the loss allowance analysis/models and financial
reporting systems. To the extent that the loss allowance analysis is based on credit exposures that have
been disaggregated into subsets of debt financial assets with similar risk characteristics, we traced or
re-performed the disaggregation from source systems to the loss allowance analysis. We also assessed
the assumptions used where there are missing or insufficient data.

We recalculated impairment provisions on a sample basis. We involved our internal specialists in the
performance of the above procedures. We reviewed the completeness of the disclosures made in the
financial statements.

Accounting for Disposals of Investment Securities under a Hold-to-collect Business Model


In 2020, the Group and the Parent Company disposed investment securities managed under the
hold-to-collect (HTC) business model with aggregate carrying amount of = P113.4 billion and
=93.9 billion, respectively. The disposals resulted in a gain of =
P P8.2 billion for the Group and =
P6.9 billion
for the Parent Company. Investment securities held under an HTC business model, which are classified
as ‘Investment securities at amortized cost’, are managed to realize cash flows by collecting contractual
payments over the life of the instrument.

The accounting for the disposals is significant to our audit because the amounts involved are material
(45.1% and 43.3% of the total investment securities at amortized cost of the Group and the Parent
Company, respectively, and 5.7% and 6.1% of the total operating income of the Group and Parent
Company, respectively). Moreover, it involves the exercise of significant judgment by management in
assessing whether the disposals are consistent with the HTC business model or that they resulted from a
change in business model. A change in business model would impact the measurement of the remaining
securities in the affected portfolios. Under PFRS 9, a change in business model is expected to be very
infrequent as it must be significant to the Group’s and the Parent Company’s operations and demonstrable
to external parties.

*SGVFSM005911*
A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited

Refer to Note 8 of the financial statements for the disclosure on the disposals of investment securities at
amortized cost and change in business model.

Audit response
We obtained an understanding of the Group’s and the Parent Company’s objectives for disposals of
investment securities at amortized cost through inquiries with management and review of approved
internal documentations, including governance over the disposals. We evaluated management’s
assessment of the impact of the disposals in reference to the Group’s and the Parent Company’s business
models and the provisions of the relevant accounting standards and regulatory issuances. For disposals
resulting from change in business model of the Parent Company, we reviewed the new business model
documentation to check whether the new policies and procedures for managing the investment securities
reflect the change in the objective of the business model. We also reviewed the calculation of the gains
on the disposals and the measurement of the remaining securities in the affected portfolios. We reviewed
the reclassification adjustment made by the Parent Company based on the requirements of PFRS 9.

We reviewed the disclosures related to the disposals and change in business model based on the
requirements of PFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures, PFRS 9 and Philippine Accounting
Standard (PAS 1), Presentation of Financial Statements.

Realizability of Deferred Tax Assets


As of December 31, 2020, the deferred tax assets of the Group and the Parent Company amounted to
=14.0 billion and =
P P11.4 billion, respectively. The recognition of deferred tax assets is significant to our
audit because it requires significant judgment and is based on assumptions such as availability of future
taxable income and the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences that are affected by expected
future market or economic conditions and the expected performance of the Group and the Parent
Company. The estimation uncertainty on the Group’s and Parent Company’s expected performance has
increased as a result of the uncertainties brought about by the coronavirus pandemic.

The disclosures in relation to deferred income taxes are included in Note 28 of the financial statements.

Audit Response
We involved our internal specialist in interpreting the tax regulations, testing the temporary differences
identified by the Group and the Parent Company and the applicable tax rate. We also re-performed the
calculation of the deferred tax assets. We reviewed the management’s assessment on the availability of
future taxable income in reference to financial forecast and tax strategies. We evaluated management’s
forecast by comparing the loan portfolio and deposit growth rates to the historical performance of the
Group and Parent Company and the industry, including future market circumstances and taking into
consideration the impact associated with the coronavirus pandemic.

Applicable to the audit of the consolidated financial statements

Recoverability of Investments in Associates and a Joint Venture


The Group assesses the impairment of its investments in associates and a joint venture whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investments may not be recoverable.
As of December 31, 2020, the Group has an investment in associate amounting to = P1.9 billion whose fair
value has declined significantly from acquisition cost. The Group performed impairment testing by
calculating both the fair value less costs to sell (FVLCTS) and value-in-use (VIU) to determine the higher
amount that should be used as the recoverable amount. We considered the impairment testing of the
Group’s investment in this associate as a key audit matter as significant judgment and estimates are
involved in the determination of the investment’s VIU.

The disclosures relating to investments in associates and a joint venture are included in Notes 3 and 11 to
the financial statements.

Audit response
We discussed with management the investee’s current business performance and prospects and how these
were reflected in the Group’s VIU calculation. We involved our internal specialist in evaluating the
methodology and assumptions used. We compared the expected production volume and capital
expenditures used in the calculation to the historical performance and plans of the investee, and the price
assumption, exchange rates and long-term growth rate to available industry, economic and financial data
including consensus market forecasts and the impact of the coronavirus pandemic. We also tested whether
the discount rate used represents current market assessment of risks associated with the investment.

Recoverability of Goodwill
As of December 31, 2020, the Group has goodwill amounting to = P5.2 billion as a result of various
business acquisitions. Under PFRS, the Group is required to annually test the amount of goodwill for
impairment. The Group performed the impairment testing using the cash generating unit’s (CGU)
FVLCTS. The annual impairment test is significant to our audit because the determination of the CGU’s
FVLCTS requires significant judgment and is based on assumptions which are subject to higher level of
estimation uncertainty due to the current economic conditions which have been impacted by the
coronavirus pandemic. The CGU’s assets include significant investments in unquoted equity shares and
their fair values were determined using price-to-earnings (P/E) ratios of comparable companies and
adjusted net asset valuation (NAV) method. Other assets of the CGU include investments in quoted
equity shares and debt financial assets, and real properties, while liabilities include unquoted debt
financial liabilities.

The disclosures relating to goodwill are included in Notes 3 and 11 to the financial statements.

Audit response
We involved our internal specialist in evaluating the assumptions and methodology used by the Group in
determining the FVLCTS of the CGU, in particular those relating to the use of P/E ratios of comparable
companies and adjusted NAV method in the valuation of the unquoted equity shares. We tested the fair
value of the other assets and liabilities by referring to the quoted prices of listed equity and debt
instruments, agreeing the appraised values of real estate properties to the appraisal reports, comparing the
future cash flows of unquoted debt instruments to the related contracts, and comparing the discount rates
used against prevailing interest rates for similar instruments, taking into consideration the impact
associated with the coronavirus pandemic. We also re-performed the calculation of the FVLCTS.

Other Information

Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information
included in the SEC Form 20-IS (Definitive Information Statement), SEC Form 17-A and Annual Report
for the year ended December 31, 2020, but does not include the consolidated and parent company
financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The SEC Form 20-IS (Definitive Information
Statement), SEC Form 17-A and Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2020 are expected to be
made available to us after the date of this auditor’s report.

Our opinion on the consolidated and parent company financial statements does not cover the other
information and we will not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audits of the consolidated and parent company financial statements, our
responsibility is to read the other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing
so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated and parent
company financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audits, or otherwise appears to be
materially misstated.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated and
Parent Company Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated and parent
company financial statements in accordance with PFRS, and for such internal control as management
determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated and parent company financial
statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated and parent company financial statements, management is responsible for
assessing the Group’s and the Parent Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as
applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless
management either intends to liquidate the Group and the Parent Company or to cease operations, or has
no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Group’s and the Parent Company’s
financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated and Parent Company Financial
Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated and parent company
financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to
issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but
is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with PSAs will always detect a material
misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if,
individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of
users taken on the basis of these consolidated and parent company financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with PSAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain
professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

 Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated and parent company
financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to
those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one
resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

 Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Group’s and the Parent Company’s internal control.

 Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by management.

 Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and,
based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or
conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s and the Parent Company’s ability to
continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to
draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated and parent
company financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our
conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However,
future events or conditions may cause the Group and the Parent Company to cease to continue as a
going concern.

 Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated and parent company
financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated and parent company
financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair
presentation.

 Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or
business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements.
We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit. We remain solely
responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope
and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal
control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant
ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other
matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related
safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that
were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated and parent company financial statements of the
current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report
unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare
circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse
consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such
communication.

Report on the Supplementary Information Required Under Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP)
Circular No. 1074 and Revenue Regulations No. 15-2010

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken
as a whole. The supplementary information required under BSP Circular No. 1074 in Note 37 and
Revenue Regulations No. 15-2010 in Note 38 to the financial statements is presented for purposes of
filing with the BSP and Bureau of Internal Revenue, respectively, and is not a required part of the basic
financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of the management of the Parent Company.
The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the basic financial
statements. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor’s report is
Josephine Adrienne A. Abarca.

METROPOLITAN BANK & TRUST COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Corporate Information

Metropolitan Bank & Trust Company (the Parent Company) is a universal bank incorporated in the
Philippines on April 6, 1962. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved the renewal
on November 19, 2007. The Parent Company’s shares were listed with the Philippine Stock
Exchange, Inc. (PSE) on February 26, 1981, as approved by the SEC in November 1980. It has a
universal banking license granted by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) on August 21, 1981.

The Parent Company and its subsidiaries (the Group) are engaged in all aspects of banking,
financing, leasing, real estate and stock brokering through a network of over 2,000 local and
international branches, subsidiaries, representative offices, remittance correspondents and
agencies. As a bank, the Parent Company, which is the ultimate parent of the Group, provides
services such as deposit products, loans and trade finance, domestic and foreign fund transfers,
treasury, foreign exchange, trading and remittances, and trust services. Its principal place of business
is at Metrobank Plaza, Sen. Gil Puyat Avenue, Urdaneta Village, Makati City, Metro Manila,
Philippines.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Preparation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for
financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) and fair value
through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) that have been measured at fair value.

The financial statements of the Parent Company and Philippine Savings Bank (PSBank) include the
accounts maintained in the Regular Banking Unit (RBU) and Foreign Currency Deposit Unit
(FCDU). The functional currency of RBU and FCDU is Philippine Peso (PHP) and United States
Dollar (USD), respectively. For financial reporting purposes, FCDU accounts and foreign currency-
denominated accounts in the RBU are translated into their equivalents in PHP (see accounting policy
on Foreign Currency Translation). The financial statements of these units are combined after
eliminating inter-unit accounts.

Each entity in the Group determines its own functional currency and items included in the financial
statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency. The respective functional
currencies of the subsidiaries are presented under Basis of Consolidation. The financial statements
are presented in PHP, and all values are rounded to the nearest million pesos (P
=000,000), except
when otherwise indicated.

Statement of Compliance
The financial statements of the Group and the Parent Company have been prepared in compliance
with Philippine Financial Reporting Standards (PFRS).

Presentation of Financial Statements


Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statement of
financial position only when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and
there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liability
simultaneously. This is not generally the case with master netting agreements, and the related assets
and liabilities are presented gross in the statement of financial position. Income and expense are not

*SGVFSM005911*
-2-

offset in the statement of income unless required or permitted by any accounting standard or
interpretation, and as specifically disclosed in the accounting policies of the Group.

Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Parent Company and of
its subsidiaries and are prepared for the same reporting period as the Parent Company using
consistent accounting policies. The following are the wholly and majority-owned foreign and
domestic subsidiaries of the Parent Company in 2020 and 2019 (Note 11):

** In process of dissolution
*** In process of liquidation
**** Fully liquidated in January 2021

All significant intra-group balances, transactions, income and expenses and profits and losses
resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated in full at consolidation (Note 31). Subsidiaries
are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. Control is achieved
where the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee
and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Consolidation of
subsidiaries ceases when control is transferred out of the Group or the Parent Company. The results
of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statements of
income and consolidated statements of comprehensive income from the date of acquisition or up to
the date of disposal, as appropriate.

*SGVFSM005911*
-3-

Changes in the Parent Company’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of
control are accounted for within equity. Any difference between the amount by which the non-
controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid (or to be paid) or
received is recognized directly in equity included as part of ‘Translation adjustment and others’ and
attributed to the owners of the Parent Company.

When a change in ownership interest in a subsidiary occurs which results in a loss of control over the
subsidiary, the Parent Company: (a) derecognizes the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the
subsidiary; (b) derecognizes the carrying amount of any non-controlling interest; (c) derecognizes the
related other comprehensive income (OCI) recorded in equity and recycles the same to statement of
income or ‘Surplus’; (d) recognizes the fair value of the consideration received; (e) recognizes the
fair value of any investment retained; (f) recognizes any surplus or deficit in statement of income;
and (g) reclassifies the Parent Company’s share of components’ gains (losses) previously recognized
in OCI to profit or loss or surplus, as appropriate, as would be required if the Group had directly
disposed of the related assets or liabilities.

Entity with Significant Influence over the Group


GT Capital Holdings, Inc. (GT Capital) holds 37.15% and 36.65% interest in the Parent Company as
of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively (Note 31).

Non-controlling Interest
Non-controlling interest represents the portion of profit or loss and the net assets of the funds not
held by the Group and are presented separately in the consolidated statement of income, consolidated
statement of comprehensive income and within equity in the consolidated statement of financial
position, separately from equity attributable to the Parent Company. Any losses applicable to the
non-controlling interests in excess of the non-controlling interests are allocated against the interests
of the non-controlling interest even if this results in the non-controlling interest having a deficit
balance. Acquisitions of non-controlling interests are accounted for as equity transactions.

Non-equity Non-controlling Interest


The Group has seed capital investments in a number of funds where it is in a position to be able to
control those funds. These funds are consolidated.

Non-equity non-controlling interest represents the portion of net assets of the consolidated funds not
attributed, directly or indirectly, to the Parent Company and is presented separately in the liability
section in the consolidated statement of financial position. This liability is accounted for at FVTPL
and measured using net asset value per unit with changes recognized in ‘Trading and securities gain -
net’ in the consolidated statement of income.

Legal Merger between Parent Company and Subsidiary


In the parent company financial statements, the legal merger between the Parent Company and its
subsidiary, with the Parent Company as the surviving entity, is accounted for as follows:
 The acquired assets and assumed liabilities are recognized at the carrying amounts in the
consolidated financial statements as of the date of the legal merger;
 The difference between the carrying amount of the net assets of the subsidiary and the carrying
amount of the investment in the merged subsidiary before the legal merger is recognized under
“Translation adjustment and others” account in the equity section of the parent company
statement of financial position; and
 The comparative financial information in the parent company financial statements for period
prior to the legal merger is not restated. The financial position and results of operations of the

*SGVFSM005911*
-4-

merged subsidiary are reflected in the parent company financial statements only from the date of
the legal merger.

The legal merger has no impact in the consolidated financial statements.

Changes in Accounting Policies and Disclosures


Except for these new and amended standards which were adopted as of January 1, 2020, the
accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of previous financial year.

The adoption of the following amendments did not have a significant impact on the consolidated
financial statements of the Group:

Significant Accounting Policies

Foreign Currency Translation


Transactions and balances
For financial reporting purposes, the foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities in
the RBU are translated in Philippine peso based on the Bankers Association of the Philippines (BAP)
closing rate prevailing at the statement of financial position date and foreign currency-denominated
income and expenses, at the prevailing exchange rates as at the date of transaction. Foreign
exchange differences arising from revaluation and translation of foreign currency-denominated assets
and liabilities are credited to or charged against operations in the year in which the rates change.
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated
using the exchange rates as at the dates of the initial transactions.

Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange
rates at the date when the fair value was determined.

FCDU, foreign branches and subsidiaries


As at the reporting date, the assets and liabilities of foreign branches and subsidiaries and FCDU of
the Parent Company and PSBank are translated into the Parent Company’s presentation currency (the
PHP) at BAP closing rate prevailing at the statement of financial position date, and their income and
expenses are translated at BAP weighted average rate. Exchange differences arising on translation
are taken to the statement of comprehensive income under ‘Translation adjustment and others’.
Upon disposal of a foreign entity or when the Parent Company ceases to have control over the
subsidiaries or upon actual remittance of FCDU profits to RBU, the deferred cumulative amount
recognized in the statement of comprehensive income is recognized in the statement of income.

Fair Value Measurement


The Group measures certain financial instruments, such as derivatives, at fair value at each statement
of financial position date. Also, fair values of financial instruments measured at amortized cost and
investment properties are disclosed in Note 5.

*SGVFSM005911*
-5-

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an
orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., an exit price). The fair
value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the
liability takes place either in the principal market for the asset or liability; or in the absence of a
principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The principal or the most
advantageous market must be accessible to the Group.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants
would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic
best interest.

If an asset or a liability measured at fair value has a bid price and an ask price, the price within the
bid - ask spread that is most representative of fair value in the circumstances shall be used to measure
fair value regardless of where the input is categorized within the fair value hierarchy.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to
generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another
market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

For assets and liabilities not listed in an active market, the Group uses valuation techniques that are
appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value,
maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are
categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that
is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
 Level 1 - Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
 Level 2 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement is directly or indirectly observable
 Level 3 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement is unobservable

For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the
Group determines whether transfers have occurred between Levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing
categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a
whole) at the end of each reporting period. The Group determines the policies and procedures for
both recurring fair value measurement, such as financial assets and liabilities at FVTPL, and for non-
recurring measurement, such as investment properties.

External valuers are involved for valuation of significant assets, such as investment properties.
Selection criteria include market knowledge, reputation, independence and whether professional
standards are maintained.

For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Group has determined classes of assets and liabilities on
the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value
hierarchy as explained above.

Financial Instruments - Initial Recognition and Subsequent Measurement

Date of recognition
Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established
by regulation or convention in the marketplace are recognized on the settlement date. Derivatives are
recognized on trade date basis. Deposits, amounts due from banks and customers and loans and
receivables are recognized when cash is received by the Group or advanced to the borrowers.

Initial recognition of financial instruments


All financial instruments are initially measured at fair value. Except for financial assets and financial
liabilities at FVTPL, the initial measurement of financial instruments includes transaction costs.

‘Day 1’ difference
Where the transaction price in a non-active market is different from the fair value from other
observable current market transactions in the same instrument or based on a valuation technique
whose variables include only data from observable market, the Group recognizes the difference
between the transaction price and fair value (a ‘Day 1’ difference) in the statement of income. In
cases where the transaction price used is made of data which is not observable, the difference
between the transaction price and model value is only recognized in the statement of income when
the inputs become observable or when the instrument is derecognized. For each transaction, the
Group determines the appropriate method of recognizing the ‘Day 1’ difference amount.

Classification and Subsequent Measurement


Financial assets are measured at FVTPL unless these are measured at FVOCI or at amortized cost.
Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities at FVTPL or financial liabilities at
amortized cost. The classification of financial assets depends on the contractual terms and the
business model for managing the financial assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, the Group may
reclassify its financial assets only when there is a change in its business model for managing these
financial assets. Reclassification of financial liabilities is not allowed.

The Group determines its business model at the level that best reflects how it manages groups of
financial assets to achieve its business objective. The Group’s business model is not assessed on an
instrument-by-instrument basis, but at a higher level of aggregated portfolios. If cash flows after
initial recognition are realized in a way that is different from the Group’s original expectations, the
Group does not change the classification of the remaining financial assets held in that business
model, but incorporates such information when assessing newly originated or newly purchased
financial assets going forward.

As a second step of its classification process, the Group assesses the contractual terms of financial
assets to identify whether they pass the contractual cash flows test (SPPI test). For the purpose of the
SPPI test, principal is defined as the fair value of the financial asset at initial recognition and may
change over the life of the financial asset (for example, if there are repayments of principal or
amortization of the premium or discount). The most significant elements of interest within a lending
arrangement are typically the consideration for the time value of money and credit risk. In contrast,
contractual terms that introduce a more than de minimis exposure to risks or volatility in the
contractual cash flows that are unrelated to a basic lending arrangement do not give rise to
contractual cash flows that are SPPI. In such cases, the financial asset is required to be measured at
FVTPL.

*SGVFSM005911*
-7-

Financial assets at FVTPL


These are recorded in the statements of financial position at fair value with changes in fair value
recognized in ‘Trading, securities and foreign exchange gain - net’. Interest earned is recorded in
‘Interest Income’ while dividend income is recorded in ‘Dividends’ when the right to receive
payment has been established. Included in this classification are debt and equity securities which
have been acquired principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term.

Derivatives recorded at FVTPL


The Parent Company and some of its subsidiaries are counterparties to derivative contracts, such as
currency forwards, currency swaps, interest rate swaps (IRS), call options, non-deliverable forwards
(NDF) and other interest rate derivatives. These derivatives are entered into as a service to customers
and as a means of reducing or managing their respective foreign exchange and interest rate
exposures, as well as for trading purposes. Such derivative financial instruments are initially
recorded at fair value on the date at which the derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently
remeasured at fair value. Any gains or losses arising from changes in fair values of derivatives
(except those accounted for as accounting hedges) are taken directly to the statement of income and
are included in ‘Trading, securities and foreign exchange gain - net’. Derivatives are carried as
assets when the fair value is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative.

Investment securities at FVOCI


Investment securities at FVOCI include debt and equity securities. After initial measurement,
investment securities at FVOCI are subsequently measured at fair value. The unrealized gains and
losses arising from the fair valuation of investment securities at FVOCI are excluded, net of tax as
applicable, from the reported earnings and are included in the statement of comprehensive income as
‘Change in net unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities at FVOCI’.

Debt securities at FVOCI are those that meet both of the following conditions: (i) the asset is held
within a business model whose objective is to hold the financial assets in order to both collect
contractual cash flows and sell financial assets; and (ii) the contractual terms of the financial asset
give rise on specified dates to cash flow that are SPPI on the outstanding principal amount. The
effective yield component of debt securities at FVOCI, as well as the impact of restatement on
foreign currency-denominated debt securities at FVOCI is reported in the statement of income.
Interest earned on holding debt securities at FVOCI are reported as ‘Interest Income’ using the
effective interest rate (EIR) method. When the debt securities at FVOCI are disposed of, the
cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in the statement of comprehensive income is
recognized as ‘Trading, securities and foreign exchange gain - net’ in the statement of income. The
expected credit loss (ECL) arising from impairment of such investments are recognized in OCI with
a corresponding charge to ‘Provision for credit and impairment losses’ in the statement of income.

Equity securities designated at FVOCI are those that the Group made an irrevocable election to
present in OCI the subsequent changes in fair value. Dividends earned on holding equity securities at
FVOCI are recognized in the statement of income as ‘Dividends’ when the right of the payment has
been established, except when the Group benefits from such proceeds as a recovery part of the cost
of the instrument, in which case, such gains are recorded in OCI. Gains and losses on disposal of
these equity securities are never recycled to profit or loss, but the cumulative gain or loss previously
recognized in the statement of comprehensive income is reclassified to ‘Surplus’ or any other
appropriate equity account upon disposal. Equity securities at FVOCI are not subject to impairment
assessment.

*SGVFSM005911*

Financial assets at amortized cost


Financial assets at amortized cost are debt financial assets that meet both of the following conditions:
(i) these are held within a business model whose objective is to hold the financial assets in order to
collect contractual cash flows; and (ii) the contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows
that are SPPI on the outstanding principal amount. This accounting policy relates to the statement of
financial position captions ‘Due from BSP’, ‘Due from other banks’, ‘Interbank loans receivable and
SPURA’, ‘Investment securities at amortized cost’ and ‘Loans and receivables’.

After initial measurement, financial assets at amortized cost are subsequently measured at amortized
cost using the EIR method, less impairment in value. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into
account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees that are an integral part of the EIR. The
amortization is included in ‘Interest income’ in the statement of income. Gains and losses are
recognized in statement of income when these investments are derecognized or impaired, as well as
through the amortization process. The ECL are recognized in the statement of income under
‘Provision for credit and impairment losses’. The effects of revaluation on foreign currency-
denominated investments are recognized in the statement of income.

Financial liabilities at amortized cost


Issued financial instruments or their components, which are not designated at FVTPL, are classified
as liabilities under ‘Deposit liabilities’, ‘Bills payable and securities sold under repurchase
agreements (SSURA)’, ‘Bonds payable’, or ‘Subordinated debts’ or other appropriate financial
liability accounts, where the substance of the contractual arrangement results in the Group having an
obligation either to deliver cash or another financial asset to the holder, or to satisfy the obligation
other than by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number of
own equity shares. The components of issued financial instruments that contain both liability and
equity elements are accounted for separately, with the equity component being assigned the residual
amount after deducting from the instrument as a whole the amount separately determined as the fair
value of the liability component on the date of issue.

After initial measurement, bills payable and similar financial liabilities not qualified as and not
designated at FVTPL, are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the EIR method.
Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on the issue and fees
that are an integral part of the EIR.

Financial Guarantees and Undrawn Loan Commitments


The Group issues financial guarantees and loan commitments. Financial guarantees are those issued
by the Group to creditors as allowed under existing rules and regulations whereby it guarantees third
party obligations by signing as guarantor in the contract/agreement. Undrawn loan commitments and
letters of credit are commitments under which over the duration of the commitment, the Group is
required to provide a loan with pre-specified terms to the customer. The nominal contractual value
of financial guarantees and undrawn loan commitments, where the loan agreed to be provided is on
market terms, are not recorded in the statement of financial position. These contracts are in the scope
of the ECL requirements where the Group estimates the expected portion of the undrawn loan
commitments that will be drawn over their expected life. The ECL related to financial guarantees
and undrawn loan commitments is recognized in ‘Miscellaneous liabilities’ under ‘Other liabilities’.

*SGVFSM005911*

Derecognition of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities


Financial assets
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of financial
assets) is derecognized when:
 the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired; or
 the Group retains the right to receive cash flows from the asset, but has assumed an obligation to
pay them in full without material delay to a third party under a “pass-through” arrangement; or
 the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset and either (a) has
transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) has neither transferred nor
retained the risks and rewards of the asset but has transferred the control of the asset.

Where the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a
pass-through arrangement, and has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and
rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognized to the extent of the
Group’s continuing involvement in the asset. The extent of the Group’s continuing involvement in
the transferred asset is the extent to which it is exposed to changes in the value of the transferred
asset. When the Group’s continuing involvement takes the form of guaranteeing the transferred
asset, the extent of the Group’s continuing involvement is the lower of (i) the amount of the asset and
(ii) the maximum amount of the consideration received that the Group could be required to repay
(‘the guarantee amount’). When the Group’s continuing involvement takes the form of a written or
purchased option (or both) on the transferred asset, the extent of the Group’s continuing involvement
is the amount of the transferred asset that the Group may repurchase. However, in case of a written
put option to an asset that is measured at fair value, the extent of the Group’s continuing involvement
is limited to the lower of the fair value of the transferred asset and the option exercise price. When
the Group’s continuing involvement takes the form of a cash-settled option or similar provision on
the transferred asset, the extent of the Group’s continuing involvement is measured in the same way
as that which results from non-cash settled options.

The Group derecognizes a financial asset such as a loan to a customer, when the terms and conditions
have been renegotiated to the extent that, substantially, it becomes a new loan, with the difference
recognized as a derecognition gain or loss, to the extent that an impairment loss has not already been
recorded. The newly recognized loans are classified as Stage 1 for ECL measurement purposes,
unless the new loan is deemed to be POCI.

When assessing whether or not to derecognize a loan to a customer, amongst others, the Group
considers the following factors:
 Change in currency of the loan
 Introduction of an equity feature
 Change in counterparty
 If the modification is such that the instrument would no longer meet the SPPI criterion

If the modification does not result in cash flows that are substantially different as set out below, the
modification does not result in derecognition. Based on the change in cash flows discounted at the
original EIR, the Group records a modification gain or loss, to the extent that an impairment loss has
not already been recorded. The Group considers a modification substantial based on qualitative
factors.

Financial assets are written off either partially or in their entirety only when the Group has stopped
pursuing the recovery. If a write-off is later recovered, any amounts formerly charged are credited to
‘Recovery on Charged-off Assets’ under ‘Miscellaneous Income’ in the statements of income.

*SGVFSM005911*
- 10 -

Financial liabilities
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged, cancelled
or has expired. Where an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on
substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an
exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a
new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the statement of
income.

The Group considers a modification substantial based on qualitative factors and if it results in a
difference between the adjusted discounted present value and the original carrying amount of the
financial liability of or greater than ten percent.

Similar with financial assets, when the modification of a financial liability is not considered
substantial, the Group records a modification gain or loss based on the change in cash flows
discounted at the original EIR.

Repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements


Securities sold under agreements to repurchase at a specified future date (‘repos’) are not
derecognized from the statement of financial position. The corresponding cash received, including
accrued interest, is recognized in the statement of financial position as SSURA included in ‘Bills
payable and SSURA’ and is considered as a loan to the Group, reflecting the economic substance of
such transaction.

Conversely, securities purchased under agreements to resell at a specified future date (‘reverse
repos’) are not recognized in the statement of financial position. The corresponding cash paid
including accrued interest, is recognized in the statement of financial position as SPURA, and is
considered a loan to the counterparty. The difference between the purchase price and resale price is
treated as interest income and is accrued over the life of the agreement using the EIR method.

Reclassification of Financial Assets


The Group reclassifies its financial assets when there is a change in its business model for managing
financial assets. A change in business model occurs when the Group either begins or ceases to
perform an activity that is significant to its operations. The Group applies the reclassification
prospectively from the reclassification date (i.e. the first day of the next quarterly reporting period
following the change in business model) and does not restate any previously recognized gains, losses
or interest.

Impairment of Financial Assets


The adoption of PFRS 9 has changed the Group’s loss impairment method on financial assets by
replacing the previous incurred loss approach with a forward-looking ECL approach which covers all
loans and other debt financial assets not held at FVTPL, together with loan commitments and
financial guarantee contracts.

Overview of the ECL principles


ECL represents credit losses that reflect an unbiased and probability weighted amount which is based
on reasonable and supportable information about past events, current conditions and forecasts of
future economic conditions, and time value of money. The ECL allowance is based on the credit
losses expected to arise on a 12-month duration if there has been no SICR of the financial asset since
origination. Otherwise if a SICR is observed, then the ECL estimation is extended until the end of
the life of the financial asset. The 12-month ECL represents the losses that result from default events
on a financial asset which may happen within 12 months after the reporting date. The Lifetime ECL
on the other hand represents the losses that result from default events on a financial asset which may

*SGVFSM005911*
- 11 -

happen over its life. Both Lifetime ECLs and 12-month ECLs are calculated on either an individual
basis or a collective basis, depending on the nature of the underlying portfolio of financial
instruments.

The major portfolios of financial assets identified upon initial analysis of the Group’s credit exposure
are loan receivables, treasury accounts, and other receivables. Loan receivables may be availed by
specific individuals, corporations or organizations. Hence, these portfolios can be further segmented
to commercial and consumer portfolios. After segmentation, financial assets are grouped into
Stage 1, Stage 2, and Stage 3 as described below.

Definition of “default” and “cure”


The Group defines a financial instrument as in default, which is fully aligned with the definition of
non-performing loans i.e. credit impaired, in all cases when the borrower becomes more than 90 days
(more than 30 days in 2018) past due on its contractual payments. As a part of a qualitative
assessment of whether a customer is in default, the Group also considers a variety of instances that
may indicate unlikeliness to pay. When such events occur, the Group carefully considers whether the
event should result in treating the customer as defaulted. An instrument is considered to be no longer
in default (i.e. to have cured) when it no longer meets any of the default criteria and has exhibited a
satisfactory track record.

Treasury exposures are considered in default upon occurrence of a credit event such as but not
limited to bankruptcy of counterparty, restructuring, failure to pay on agreed settlement date, or
request for moratorium.

SICR
In order to determine whether an instrument is subject to 12-month or Lifetime ECL, the Group
assesses whether there has been a SICR since initial recognition. The criteria for determining
whether credit risk has increased significantly vary by portfolio and include quantitative and
qualitative factors. The credit risk of a particular exposure is deemed to have increased significantly
since initial recognition if, based on the Group’s internal credit assessment, the borrower or
counterparty is determined to have well-defined credit weaknesses (i.e. with internal credit rating of
6 due to financial or repayment concerns or lower). These may include adverse trends or
developments of financial, managerial, economic or political nature, or a significant weakness in
collateral. Credit weakness may be manifested by unfavorable record or unsatisfactory
characteristics or may only be potential that deserves management’s close attention and may lead to
significant losses or may result in collection or liquidation of the outstanding loan amount to be
highly improbable. For exposures without internal credit grades, if contractual payments are more
than 30 days past due, the credit risk is deemed to have increased significantly since initial
recognition. Days past due are determined by counting the number of days since the earliest elapsed
due date in respect of which full payment has not been received. In subsequent reporting periods, if
the credit risk of the financial asset improves over an observable period such that there is no longer a
SICR since initial recognition, the Group shall revert to recognizing a 12-month ECL.

Staging assessment
For non-credit-impaired financial assets:
 Stage 1 is comprised of all non-impaired financial assets which have not experienced a SICR
since initial recognition. The Group recognizes a 12-month ECL for Stage 1 financial assets.
 Stage 2 is comprised of all non-impaired financial assets which have experienced a SICR since
initial recognition. The Group recognizes a lifetime ECL for Stage 2 financial assets.

*SGVFSM005911*
- 12 -

For credit-impaired financial assets:


 Financial assets are classified as Stage 3 when there is objective evidence of impairment as a
result of one or more loss events that have occurred after initial recognition with a negative
impact on the estimated future cash flows of a financial asset or a portfolio of financial assets.
ECL for Stage 3 exposure are computed on a per account, taking into consideration the present
value of the expected recoverable cash flows from each transaction.

Financial assets that are credit-impaired on initial recognition are classified as purchased or
originated credit-impaired (POCI) assets. These are recorded at fair value at original recognition and
interest income is subsequently recognized based on a credit-adjusted EIR. ECL is only recognized
or released to the extent that there is a subsequent change in the ECLs.

Assessment of ECL on a collective basis


The Group calculates ECL either on an individual or a collective basis. The Group performs
collective impairment by grouping exposures into smaller homogenous portfolios based on a
combination of borrower and account characteristics. Accounts with similar risk attributes (i.e.
facility, security, credit rating, months-on-books, utilization and collateral type, etc.) are pooled
together for calculating provisions based on the ECL models.

ECL parameters and methodologies


ECL is a function of the probability of default (PD), exposure-at-default (EAD), and loss-given
default (LGD), with the timing of the loss also considered, and is estimated by incorporating
forward-looking economic information and through the use of experienced credit judgement.

The PD represents the likelihood that a credit exposure will not be repaid and will go into default in
either a 12-month horizon for Stage 1 or lifetime horizon for Stage 2. The PD for each individual
financial asset is modelled based on historical data and is estimated based on current market
conditions and reasonable and supportable information about future economic conditions. The
Group segmented its credit exposures based on homogenous risk characteristics and developed a
corresponding PD methodology for each portfolio. The PD methodology for each relevant portfolio
is determined based on the underlying nature or characteristic of the portfolio, behavior of the
accounts and materiality of the segment as compared to the total portfolio.

EAD consists of the amortized cost and any accrued interest receivable. For off-balance sheet and
undrawn committed amounts, EAD includes a credit conversion factor which is an estimate of any
further amount to be drawn at the time of default. For the credit card business, which was merged
with the Parent Company in 2020, EAD is modelled based on historical data on card limit utilization.

LGD is the amount that may not be recovered in the event of default and is modelled based on
historical cash flow recovery and reasonable and supportable information about future economic
conditions, where appropriate. LGD takes into consideration the amount and quality of any collateral
held.

The Group applies a simplified ECL approach for its accounts receivables wherein the Group uses a
provisioning matrix that considers historical changes in the behavior of the portfolio to predict
conditions over the span of a given observation period.

The Parent Company offers credit card facilities (previously under MCC), in which it has the right to
cancel and/or reduce the facilities with one-day notice. It does not limit its exposure to credit losses
to the contractual notice period, but instead, calculates ECL over a period that reflects its
expectations of the customers’ behavior, their likelihood of default, and its future risk mitigation
procedures, which could include reducing or cancelling the facilities. Based on past experience and

*SGVFSM005911*
- 13 -

expectations, the period over which ECL is calculated for these products is two years. The interest
rate used to discount the ECL for credit cards is based on contractual interest rate. These rates are
also used to discount future recoveries over a period of five years as these cover the cost of securing
an equivalent fund. The contractual interest rate is used as discounting factor since the Parent
Company estimates that this rate is reflective of the EIR.

Forward-looking information
The Group incorporates forward-looking information into both its assessment of whether the credit
risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since its initial recognition and its measurement of
ECL. A broad range of forward-looking information are considered as economic inputs, such as
growth of the gross domestic product, inflation rates, unemployment rates, interest rates and BSP
statistical indicators. The inputs and models used for calculating ECL may not always capture all
characteristics of the market at the date of the financial statements. To reflect this, qualitative
adjustments or overlays are occasionally made as temporary adjustments when such differences are
significantly material.

In 2019, after model reviews and validation, the Parent Company relied on the following as
economic inputs in measuring ECL:
 Treasury Bill (T-Bill) Rates
 Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) All Shares Index
 GDP growth
 External debt
 PSE Financials Index
 GDP Financial intermediation
 Government expenditure

In 2020, the Parent Company expanded its set of macroeconomic overlays to better capture the
characteristics of specific financial asset classes (e.g. mortgage and auto loan exposures) and industry
clusters (e.g. essential industries, secondary needs). The following economic inputs were determined
to be statistically significant in measuring ECL:
 GDP Growth
 Inflation rate
 Unemployment rate
 Minimum wage
 USDPHP exchange rate
 Unified R2-BV ALWTI Crude Oil Price
 Consumer confidence index

Debt investment securities measured at FVOCI


The ECL for debt securities at FVOCI do not reduce the carrying amount of these financial assets in
the statement of financial position, which remains at fair value. Instead, an amount equal to the
allowance that would arise if the assets were measured at amortized cost is recognized in ‘Net
unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities at FVOCI’ as an accumulated impairment amount,
with a corresponding charge to profit or loss. The accumulated loss recognized in OCI is recycled to
profit or loss upon derecognition of these financial assets.

Restructured Loans
Where possible, the Group seeks to restructure loans rather than to take possession of collateral. This
may involve extending the payment arrangements and the agreement of new loan conditions. Once
the terms have been renegotiated, the loan is no longer considered past due. Management
continuously reviews and monitors restructured loans until derecognition to ensure that all criteria are
met and that future payments are likely to occur. The loans continue to be subject to an individual or
collective impairment assessment, calculated using the loan’s original EIR. The difference between
the recorded value of the original loan and the present value of the restructured cash flows,
discounted at the original EIR, is recognized in ‘Provision for credit and impairment losses’ in the
statement of income. When the loan has been restructured but not derecognized, the Group also
reassesses whether there has been a SICR and considers whether the assets should be classified as
Stage 3. If the restructuring terms are substantially different, the loan is derecognized and a new
‘asset’ is recognized at fair value using the revised EIR.

Collateral Valuation of Financial Assets


Collateral, unless repossessed, is not recorded in the Group’s statement of financial position.
However, the fair value of collateral affects the calculation of ECLs. It is generally assessed, at a
minimum, at inception and re-assessed every other year. However, some collaterals, for example,
cash or securities relating to margining requirements, are valued daily.

Revenue Recognition
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized upon transfer of services to the customer at an
amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those
services.

The Group assesses its revenue arrangements against specific criteria in order to determine if it is
acting as a principal or agent. The Group concluded that it is acting as a principal in all of its
revenue arrangements except for certain brokerage transactions. The following specific recognition
criteria must also be met before revenue is recognized.

Fee and commission income


The Group earns fee and commission income from a diverse range of services it provides to its
customers, which are divided into the following two categories:

a. Fee income earned from services that are provided over a certain period of time
Fees earned for the provision of services over a period of time are accrued over that period as the
customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Group. Using an
output method, revenue is recognized if the Group has a right to invoice the customer for
services directly corresponding to performance completed to date. These fees include investment
fund fees, custodian fees, fiduciary fees, asset management fees, and income from trust
operations.

b. Fee income from providing transaction services


Fees arising from negotiating or participating in the negotiation of a transaction for a third party -
such as commission income, underwriting fees, corporate finance fees, advisory fees and
brokerage fees for the arrangement of the acquisition of shares or other securities or the purchase
or sale of businesses are recognized on completion of the underlying transaction. Fees or
components of fees that are linked to a certain performance are recognized after fulfilling the
corresponding criteria.

redeemed or the likelihood of the customer redeeming
the loyalty points becomes remote.

Revenues outside the scope of PFRS 15


Interest income
For all financial instruments measured at amortized cost and interest-bearing financial instruments
classified as investment securities at FVOCI investments, interest income is recorded at the EIR,
which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the
financial instrument or a shorter period, where appropriate, to the net carrying amount of the
financial asset. The calculation takes into account all contractual terms of the financial instrument
(for example, prepayment options), including any fees or incremental costs that are directly
attributable to the instrument and are an integral part of the EIR. The adjusted carrying amount is
calculated based on the original EIR. The change in carrying amount is recorded as ‘Interest
income’. Loan commitment fees that are likely to be drawn down are deferred (together with any
incremental costs) and recognized as an adjustment to the EIR of the loan.

Under PFRS 9, when a financial asset becomes credit-impaired and is, therefore, regarded as Stage 3
(as discussed in “Impairment of Financial Assets” above), the Group calculates interest income by
applying the EIR to the net amortized cost of the financial asset. If the financial asset cures and is no
longer credit-impaired, the Group reverts to calculating interest income on a gross basis.

Purchases by credit cardholders, collectible on an installment basis, are recorded at the cost of the
items purchased plus a certain percentage of cost. The excess over cost is credited to ‘Unearned
discount’ and is shown as a deduction from ‘Loans and receivables’ in the consolidated statement of
financial position. The unearned discount is taken up to interest income over the installment terms
and is computed using the EIR method.

Recovery on charged-off assets


Income arising from collections on accounts or recoveries from impairment of items previously
written off are recognized in the year of recovery.

*SGVFSM005911*
- 16 -

Leasing income - Finance lease


The excess of aggregate lease rentals plus the estimated residual value over the cost of the leased
equipment constitutes the unearned lease income. Residual values represent estimated proceeds from
the disposal of equipment at the time lease is estimated. The unearned lease income is amortized
over the term of the lease, commencing on the month the lease is executed using the EIR method.

Dividend income
Dividend income is recognized when the Group’s right to receive payment is established.

Gain on disposal of investment securities at amortized cost


Results arising from gains and losses from disposal of investment securities at amortized cost.

Trading and securities gain - net


Results arising from trading activities include all gains and losses from changes in fair value for
financial assets and financial liabilities at FVTPL and gains and losses from disposal of debt
securities at FVOCI.

Rental income
Rental income arising on leased properties is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease
terms on ongoing leases and is recorded in the statement of income under ‘Leasing’.

Income on direct financing leases and receivables financed


Income on loans and receivables financed with short-term maturities is recorded in ‘Interest income’
and is recognized using the EIR method. Interest and finance fees on finance leases and loans and
receivables financed with long-term maturities and the excess of the aggregate lease rentals plus the
estimated terminal value of the leased equipment over its cost are credited to unearned discount and
amortized over the term of the note or lease using the EIR method.

Gain on sale of investment in associate


Upon loss of significant influence over an associate, the Group measures and recognizes any retained
investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the associate upon loss
of significant influence and the fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is
recognized in profit or loss.

Gain on sale of non-current asset held for sale


The gain or loss arising from the sale of non-current asset held for sale is included in profit or loss
when the item is derecognized. The gain or loss arising from the derecognition of non-current asset
held for sale is determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and its carrying
amount on the date of the transaction.

Cash and Cash Equivalents


For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and other cash items,
amounts due from BSP and other banks, and interbank loans receivable and SPURA with original
maturities of three months or less from dates of placements and that are subject to insignificant risk
of changes in value.

Property and Equipment


Land is stated at cost less any impairment in value and depreciable properties including buildings,
furniture, fixtures and equipment and leasehold improvements are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation and amortization, and any impairment in value. Such cost includes the cost of replacing
part of the property and equipment when that cost is incurred, if the recognition criteria are met but
excludes repairs and maintenance costs. Building under construction (BUC) is stated at cost and

*SGVFSM005911*
- 17 -

includes cost of construction and other direct costs. BUC is not depreciated until such time that the
relevant asset is completed and put into operational use.

Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the
depreciable assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the terms of the
covering leases and the estimated useful lives of the improvements. The range of estimated useful
lives of property and equipment follows:

Buildings 25 to 50 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment 2 to 5 years
Leasehold improvements 5 to 20 years

The depreciation and amortization method and useful life are reviewed periodically to ensure that the
method and period of depreciation and amortization are consistent with the expected pattern of
economic benefits from items of property and equipment.

An item of property and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic
benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset
(calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset)
is included in the statement of income under ‘Profit from assets sold’ in the year the asset is
derecognized.

Investments in Subsidiaries, Associates and a Joint Venture (JV)


Investment in subsidiaries
Subsidiaries pertain to all entities over which the Group has control. Control is achieved when the
Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the
ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. When the Group has less than a
majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and
circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:
 the contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee;
 rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and
 the Group’s voting rights.

Investment in associates
Associates pertain to all entities over which the Group and the Parent Company have significant
influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy
decisions of the investee, but is not control or joint control over those policies. Investment in
associates is accounted for under the equity method of accounting.

Investment in a JV
A JV is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement
have rights to the net assets of the JV. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of
an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous
consent of the parties sharing control. Investment in a JV is accounted for under the equity method
of accounting. The Group’s investment in a JV represents the 30% interest of PSBank in Sumisho
Motor Finance Corporation (SMFC) (Note 11).

Upon loss of significant influence over the associate or joint control over the JV, the Group and the
Parent Company measure and recognize any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference
between the carrying amount of the associate or JV upon loss of significant influence or joint control

*SGVFSM005911*
- 18 -

and the fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognized in the
statement of income.

Under the equity method, investments in associates and a JV are carried in the statement of financial
position at cost plus post-acquisition changes in the Group’s and the Parent Company’s share of the
net assets of the associate or JV less any impairment in value. Post-acquisition changes in the share
of net assets of the associate or a JV include the share in the: (a) income or losses; and (b) unrealized
gain or loss on investment securities, remeasurement of retirement plans and others. Dividends
received are treated as a reduction in the carrying values of the investments. Goodwill relating to the
associate and a JV is included in the carrying value of the investment and is not amortized. When the
Group and the Parent Company increase its ownership interest in an associate or a JV that continues
to be accounted for under the equity method, the cost for the additional interest is added to the
existing carrying amount of the associate or JV and the existing interest in the associate or JV is not
remeasured. The share in an associate or a JV’s post-acquisition profits or losses is recognized in the
statement of income as ‘Share in net income of subsidiaries, associates and a joint venture’ while its
share of post-acquisition movements in the associate or JV’s equity reserves is recognized directly in
the statement of comprehensive income. When the share of losses in an associate or a JV equals or
exceeds its interest in the associate or JV, including any other unsecured receivables, the Group and
the Parent Company do not recognize further losses, unless it incurred obligations or made payments
on behalf of the associate or JV which is recognized as miscellaneous liabilities. Profits and losses
resulting from transactions between the Group or the Parent Company and an associate or JV are
eliminated to the extent of the Group or the Parent Company’s interest in the associate or JV.

Investments in subsidiaries in the separate financial statements are accounted for under the equity
method similarly as investments in associates and JV. Equity in other comprehensive income
(losses) of subsidiaries and changes therein are included in remeasurement losses on retirement plan,
net unrealized gain on investment securities at FVOCI, and translation adjustments and others as
appropriate together with the Parent Company in the separate statement of financial position and
statement of comprehensive income.

Investment Properties
Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. An investment
property acquired through an exchange transaction is measured at fair value of the asset acquired
unless the fair value of such an asset cannot be measured in which case the investment property
acquired is measured at the carrying amount of asset given up. The difference between the fair value
of the asset received and the carrying amount of the asset given up is recorded as ‘Gain on initial
recognition of investment properties’ under ‘Miscellaneous income’. Foreclosed properties are
classified under ‘Investment properties’ upon: a.) entry of judgment in case of judicial foreclosure;
b.) execution of the Sheriff’s Certificate of Sale in case of extra-judicial foreclosure; or
c.) notarization of the Deed of Dacion in case of dation in payment (dacion en pago). Subsequent to
initial recognition, investment properties are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation (for
depreciable investment properties) and impairment in value.

Investment properties are derecognized when they have either been disposed of or when the
investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future benefit is expected from its
disposal. Any gains or losses on the retirement or disposal of an investment property are recognized
in the statement of income under ‘Profit from assets sold’ in the year of retirement or disposal.

Expenditures incurred after the investment properties have been put into operations, such as repairs
and maintenance costs, are normally charged to operations in the year in which the costs are incurred.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis using the remaining useful lives from the time of

*SGVFSM005911*
- 19 -

acquisition of the investment properties based on appraisal reports but not to exceed 50 years for
buildings and condominium units.

Transfers are made to investment properties when, and only when, there is a change in use evidenced
by ending of owner occupation, commencement of an operating lease to another party or ending of
construction or development. Transfers are made from investment properties when, and only when,
there is a change in use evidenced by commencement of owner occupation or commencement of
development with a view to sale.

Interest in Joint Operations


The Group is a party to joint operations whereby it contributed parcels of land for development into
residential and commercial units. In respect of the Group’s interest in the joint operations, the Group
recognizes the following: (a) the assets that it controls and the liabilities that it incurs; and (b) the
expenses that it incurs and its share of the income that it earns from the sale of units by the joint
operations. The assets contributed to the joint operations are measured at the lower of cost or net
realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business
less estimated costs necessary to make the sale (Note 14).

Chattel Mortgage Properties


Chattel mortgage properties comprise of repossessed vehicles. Chattel mortgage properties are stated
at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment in value. Depreciation is calculated on a
straight-line basis using the remaining useful lives from the time of acquisition of the vehicles. The
useful lives of chattel mortgage properties are estimated to be five years.

Subordinated Notes
Subordinated notes issued by Special Purpose Vehicles (SPV) (presented as ‘Investment in SPVs’
under ‘Other assets’) are stated at amortized cost reduced by an allowance for credit losses. The
allowance for credit losses is determined based on the difference between the outstanding principal
amount and the recoverable amount which is the present value of the future cash flow expected to be
received as payment for the subordinated notes.

Intangible Assets
Software costs
Software costs (presented under ‘Other assets’) are capitalized on the basis of the cost incurred to
acquire and bring to use the specific software. These costs are amortized over three to five years on a
straight-line basis. Costs associated with maintaining the computer software programs are
recognized as expense when incurred. Software costs are carried at cost less accumulated
amortization.

Exchange trading right


Exchange trading right (included in ‘Miscellaneous assets’ presented under ‘Other assets’) is a result
of the PSE conversion plan to preserve access of First Metro Securities Brokerage Corporation
(FMSBC), a subsidiary of FMIC, to the trading facilities and continue transacting business in the
PSE. The exchange trading right has an indefinite useful life as there is no foreseeable limit to the
period over which this asset is expected to generate net cash inflows. It is carried at the amount
allocated from the original cost to the exchange membership seat (after a corresponding allocation
was made to the value of the PSE shares) less any allowance for impairment losses. FMSBC does
not intend to sell the exchange trading right in the near future.

*SGVFSM005911*
- 20 -

Goodwill
Goodwill acquired in a business combination is initially measured at cost being the excess of the cost
of the business combination over the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the acquiree’s
identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. With respect to investments in associates and
a JV, goodwill is included in the carrying amounts of the investments. Following initial recognition,
goodwill is measured at cost net of impairment losses (see accounting policy on “Impairment of
Non-financial Assets”).

Customized System Development Cost


Customized system development cost consists of payments for customization of various banking
systems. This account will be reclassified to appropriate accounts upon completion and will be
depreciated and amortized from the time the asset is ready for its intended use (Note 14).

Impairment of Non-financial Assets


Property and equipment, investments in subsidiaries, associates and a JV, investment properties,
chattel mortgage properties, intangible assets with finite useful lives and other assets
At each statement of financial position date, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that
its non-financial assets may be impaired. When an indicator of impairment exists or when an annual
impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes a formal estimate of recoverable
amount. Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell (FVLCTS) and its
value in use (VIU) and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash
inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets, in which case the
recoverable amount is assessed as part of the cash generating unit to which it belongs. Where the
carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is
written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing VIU, the estimated future cash flows are
discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market
assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. An impairment loss is
charged to operations in the year in which it arises.

An assessment is made at each statement of financial position date as to whether there is any
indication that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased.
If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognized impairment
loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s
recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. If that is the case, the carrying
amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the
carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation and amortization, had no
impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognized in the
statement of income. After such a reversal, the depreciation and amortization expense is adjusted in
future years to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic
basis over its remaining life.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and customized system development cost not yet
available for use
Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives such as exchange trading right and customized system
development cost not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually at statement of
financial position date either individually or at the cash generating unit level, as appropriate.

Goodwill
Goodwill is reviewed for impairment, annually or more frequently if events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. Impairment is determined for
goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit (CGU) (or group of CGUs)
to which the goodwill relates. Where the recoverable amount of the CGU (or group of CGUs) is less

*SGVFSM005911*
- 21 -

than the carrying amount of the CGU (or group of CGUs) to which goodwill has been allocated, an
impairment loss is recognized immediately in the statement of income. The Group uses the higher of
FVLCTS and VIU using cash flow projections from financial budgets approved by senior
management in determining the recoverable amount.

Leases
Group as lessee
Policies applicable beginning January 1, 2019
The Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains a lease. A contract
contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in
exchange for consideration. The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for
all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognizes lease
liabilities to make lease payments and ROU assets representing the right-of-use the underlying assets.

ROU assets
The Group recognizes ROU assets (included in ‘Property and Equipment’) at the commencement
date of the lease (i.e. the date the underlying asset is available for use). ROU assets are measured at
cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement
of lease liabilities. The cost of ROU assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognized and
lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. ROU
assets are depreciated on a straight line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated
useful lives of the assets, as follows:

Office space 1 to 29 years


ATM site and equipment 1 to 5 years

Lease liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognizes lease liabilities measured at the
present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. In calculating the present value of
lease payments, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date
because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement
date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest (included in
‘Interest expense on bills payable and SSURA, bonds payable, subordinated debt and others) and
reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is
remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term or a change in the lease payments.

The Group’s lease liabilities are included in Other Liabilities (Note 21).

Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets


The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases of office spaces
and ATM sites (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement
date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition
exemption to leases of ATM site and other equipment that are considered to be of low value (i.e.,
those with value of less than =
P250,000). Lease payments on short-term leases of low-value assets are
recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Residual value of leased assets and deposits on lease contracts


The residual value of leased assets, which approximates the amount of guaranty deposit paid by the
lessee at the inception of the lease, is the estimated proceeds from the sale of the leased asset at the
end of the lease term. At the end of the lease term, the residual value of the leased asset is generally
applied against the guaranty deposit of the lessee when the lessee decides to buy the leased asset.

*SGVFSM005911*
- 22 -

Policies applicable prior to January 1, 2019


The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains a lease is based on the substance of the
arrangement and requires an assessment of whether the fulfillment of the arrangement is dependent
on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset. A
reassessment is made after inception of the lease only if one of the following applies:
(a) there is a change in contractual terms, other than a renewal or extension of the arrangement;
(b) a renewal option is exercised or extension granted, unless that term of the renewal or extension
was initially included in the lease term;
(c) there is a change in the determination of whether fulfillment is dependent on a specified asset; or
(d) there is a substantial change to the asset.

Where a reassessment is made, lease accounting shall commence or cease from the date when the
change in circumstances gives rise to the reassessment for scenarios (a), (c) or (d) above, and at the
date of renewal or extension period for scenario (b).

Finance leases, which transfer to the Group substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the
ownership of the leased item, are capitalized at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the
leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments and included in
‘Property and equipment’ with the corresponding liability to the lessor included in ‘Other liabilities’.
Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as
to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are
recorded directly to ‘Interest expense’.

Capitalized leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or
the respective lease terms, if there is no reasonable certainty that the Group will obtain ownership by
the end of the lease term.

Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risk and benefits of ownership of the assets are
classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense in the
statement of income under ‘Occupancy and equipment-related cost’ on a straight-line basis over the
lease term. Contingent rental payables are recognized as expense in the year in which they are
incurred. Any prepaid rent and accrued rent were recognized under ‘Prepaid expenses’ lodged in
‘Other assets’ and ‘Accrued other expenses’ lodged in ‘Accrued interest and other expenses’,
respectively.

Group as lessor
Finance leases, where the Group transfers substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the
ownership of the leased item to the lessee, are included in the statement of financial position under
‘Loans and receivables’. All income resulting from the receivable is included in ‘Interest income’ in
the statement of income.

Leases where the Group does not transfer substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the
assets are classified as operating leases. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating operating leases
are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized over the lease term on the same
basis as the rental income. Contingent rents are recognized as revenue in the year in which they are
earned.

Retirement Cost
The Group has a non-contributory defined benefit retirement plan except for FMIIC and its
subsidiary which follow the defined contribution retirement benefit plan and the Mandatory
Provident Fund Scheme (MPFS). The retirement cost of the Parent Company and most of its
subsidiaries is determined using the projected unit credit method. Under this method, the current

*SGVFSM005911*
- 23 -

service cost is the present value of retirement benefits payable in the future with respect to services
rendered in the current year. The net defined benefit liability or asset is the aggregate of the present
value of the defined benefit obligation (DBO) at the end of the reporting period reduced by the fair
value of plan assets (if any), adjusted for any effect of limiting a net defined benefit asset to the asset
ceiling. The asset ceiling is the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of
refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan. The cost of providing benefits
under the defined benefit plans is actuarially determined using the projected unit credit method.

Defined benefit costs comprise the following:


 Service cost
 Net interest on the net defined benefit liability or asset
 Remeasurements of net defined benefit liability or asset

Service costs which include current service costs, past service costs and gains or losses on non-
routine settlements are recognized as expense in profit or loss. Past service costs are recognized
when plan amendment or curtailment occurs. These amounts are calculated periodically by
independent qualified actuaries. Net interest on the net defined benefit liability or asset is the change
during the year in the net defined benefit liability or asset that arises from the passage of time which
is determined by applying the discount rate based on government bonds to the net defined benefit
liability or asset. Net interest on the net defined benefit liability or asset is recognized as expense or
income in profit or loss. Retirement expense is presented under ‘Compensation and fringe benefits’
in the statement of income. Remeasurements comprising actuarial gains and losses, return on plan
assets and any change in the effect of the asset ceiling (excluding net interest on defined benefit
liability) are recognized immediately in OCI in the period in which they arise. Remeasurements are
not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods. Plan assets are assets that are held by a long-
term employee benefit fund or qualifying insurance policies. Plan assets are not available to the
creditors of the Group, nor can they be paid directly to the Group. Fair value of plan assets is based
on market price information. When no market price is available, the fair value of plan assets is
estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using a discount rate that reflects both the risk
associated with the plan assets and the maturity or expected disposal date of those assets (or, if they
have no maturity, the expected period until the settlement of the related obligations). If the fair value
of the plan assets is higher than the present value of the DBO, the measurement of the resulting
defined benefit asset is limited to the present value of economic benefits available in the form of
refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan.

The Group’s right to be reimbursed of some or all of the expenditure required to settle a DBO is
recognized as a separate asset at fair value when and only when reimbursement is virtually certain.
Payments to the defined contribution retirement benefit plans and the MPFS are recognized as
expenses when employees have rendered service entitling them to the contributions.

Equity
When the shares are sold at a premium, the difference between the proceeds and par value is credited
to ‘Capital paid in excess of par value’, net of direct costs incurred related to the equity issuance. If
‘Capital paid in excess of par value’ is not sufficient, the excess is charged against surplus. When the
Group issues more than one class of stock, a separate account is maintained for each class of stock
and the number of stocks issued.

Surplus represents accumulated earnings of the Group less dividends declared.

*SGVFSM005911*
- 24 -

Own equity instruments which are reacquired or Parent Company’s shares acquired by its
subsidiaries (treasury stock) are recognized at cost and deducted from equity. No gain or loss is
recognized in the profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Parent Company’s
own equity instruments. Any difference between the carrying amount and the consideration, if
reissued, is recognized in ‘Capital paid in excess of par value’. Voting rights related to treasury
stocks are nullified and no dividends are allocated. When the stocks are retired, the Common stock
account is reduced by its par value and the excess of cost over par value upon retirement is debited to
capital paid in excess of par value at the time the stocks were issued and to surplus for the remaining
balance.

Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result
of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be
required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Where the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example, under an
insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset but only when the
reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the
statement of income, net of any reimbursement. If the effect of the time value of money is material,
provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects
current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to
the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is
recognized as ‘Interest expense’.

Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets


Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements but are disclosed unless the
possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. Contingent assets are
not recognized but are disclosed in the financial statements when an inflow of economic benefits is
probable.

Income Taxes
Current taxes
Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount
expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxing authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to
compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial
position date. Effective January 1, 2019, management periodically evaluates positions taken in the
tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretations
and establishes provisions where appropriate.

Deferred taxes
Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences at the statement of financial position date between
the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, except:
a. Where the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or
liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction,
affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.
b. In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, where the
timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the
temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

*SGVFSM005911*
- 25 -

Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carryforward of unused
tax credits from the excess of minimum corporate income tax (MCIT) over the regular income tax,
and unused net operating loss carryover (NOLCO), to the extent that it is probable that taxable
income will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and carryforward of
unused tax credits from MCIT and unused NOLCO can be utilized except:
a. Where the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial
recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the
time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.
b. In respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries,
deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary
differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against
which the temporary differences can be utilized.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each statement of financial position date
and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient future taxable profit will be
available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred
tax assets are reassessed at each statement of financial position date and are recognized to the extent
that it has become probable that future taxable income will allow the deferred tax asset to be
recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year
when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been
enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date.

Current tax and deferred tax relating to items recognized directly in equity are recognized in OCI and
not in the statement of income.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off
current tax assets against current tax liabilities and deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity
and the same taxation authority.

Earnings Per Share


Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income for the year attributable to equity
holders of the Parent Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the year after giving retroactive effect to stock dividends declared and stock rights exercised
during the year. The Group does not have dilutive potential common shares.

Dividends on Common Shares


Cash dividends on common shares are recognized as a liability and deducted from the equity when
approved by the Board of Directors (BOD) of the Parent Company while stock dividends are
deducted from equity when approved by BOD and shareholders of the Parent Company. Dividends
declared during the year but are paid or issued after the statement of financial position date are dealt
with as a subsequent event.

Debt Issuance Costs


Issuance, underwriting and other related costs incurred in connection with the issuance of debt
instruments are deferred and amortized over the terms of the instruments using the EIR method.
Unamortized debt issuance costs are included in the related carrying amount of the debt instrument in
the statement of financial position.

*SGVFSM005911*
- 26 -

Capital Securities Issuance Costs


Issuance, underwriting and other related costs incurred in connection with the issuance of the capital
securities are treated as a reduction of equity against ‘Capital paid in excess of par value’.

Events after the Statement of Financial Position Date


Post year-end events that provide additional information about the Group’s position at the statement
of financial position date (adjusting event) are reflected in the financial statements. Post year-end
events that are not adjusting events, if any, are disclosed when material to the financial statements.

Segment Reporting
The Group’s operating businesses are organized and managed separately according to the nature of
the products and services provided, with each segment representing a strategic business unit that
offers different products and serves different markets. Financial information on business segments is
presented in Note 6.

Fiduciary Activities
Assets and income arising from fiduciary activities together with related undertakings to return such
assets to customers are excluded from the financial statements where the Parent Company and
PSBank act in a fiduciary capacity such as nominee, trustee or agent.

Standards Issued but not yet Effective

The list below consists of standards and interpretations issued, which the Group reasonably expects
to be applicable at a future date. The Group intends to adopt these standards when they become
effective. Except as otherwise indicated, the Group does not expect the adoption of these new and
amended standards and interpretations to have significant impact on its financial statements.

Effective beginning on or after January 1, 2021


 Amendments to PFRS 9, PFRS 7, PFRS 4 and PFRS 16, Interest Rate Benchmark Reform -
Phase 2
The amendments provide the following temporary reliefs which address the financial reporting
effects when an interbank offered rate (IBOR) is replaced with an alternative nearly risk-free
interest rate (RFR):
o Practical expedient for changes in the basis for determining the contractual cash flows as a
result of IBOR reform
o Relief from discontinuing hedging relationships
o Relief from the separately identifiable requirement when an RFR instrument is designated as
a hedge of a risk component

The Group shall also disclose information about:


o The about the nature and extent of risks to which the entity is exposed arising from financial
instruments subject to IBOR reform, and how the entity manages those risks; and
o Their progress in completing the transition to alternative benchmark rates, and how the entity
is managing that transition

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after
January 1, 2021 and apply retrospectively, however, the Group is not required to restate prior
periods.

*SGVFSM005911*
- 27 -

Effective beginning on or after January 1, 2022

Amendments to PFRS 3, Reference to the Conceptual Framework


The amendments added an exception to the recognition principle of PFRS 3, Business Combinations
to avoid the issue of potential ‘day 2’ gains or losses arising for liabilities and contingent liabilities
that would be within the scope of PAS 37, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
or Philippine-IFRIC 21, Levies, if incurred separately. It also clarified that contingent assets do not
qualify for recognition at the acquisition date. The Group applies these amendments prospectively
for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022.

Amendments to PAS 16 , Plant and Equipment: Proceeds before Intended Use


The amendments prohibit entities deducting from the cost of an item of property, plant and
equipment, any proceeds from selling items produced while bringing that asset to the location and
condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.
Instead, an entity recognizes the proceeds from selling such items, and the costs of producing those
items, in profit or loss.

The amendment are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022 and
must be applied retrospectively to items of property, plant and equipment made available for use on
or after the beginning of the earliest period presented when the entity first applies the amendment.

Amendments to PAS 37, Onerous Contract – Costs of Fulfilling a Contract


The amendments specify which costs an entity needs to include when assessing whether a contract is
onerous or loss-making. The amendments apply a “directly related cost approach”. The costs that
relate directly to a contract to provide goods or services include both incremental costs and an
allocation of costs directly related to contract activities. General and administrative costs do not
relate directly to a contract and are excluded unless they are explicitly chargeable to the counterparty
under the contract. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after
January 1, 2022. The Group will apply these amendments to contracts for which it has not yet
fulfilled all its obligations at the beginning of the annual reporting period in which it first applies the
amendments.

Annual Improvements to PFRSs 2018-2020 Cycle


Amendments to PFRS 1, First-time Adoption of Philippines Financial Reporting Standards,
Subsidiary as a first-time adopter
The amendments permit a subsidiary, joint venture or associate that elects to apply paragraph D16(a)
of PFRS 1 to measure cumulative translation differences using the amounts reported by the parent,
based on the parent’s date of transition to PFRS. The amendment is effective for annual reporting
periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022 with earlier adoption permitted

Amendments to PFRS 9, Financial Instruments, Fees in the ’10 per cent’ test for derecognition
financial liabilities
The amendment clarifies the fees that an entity includes when assessing whether the terms of a new
or modified financial liability are substantially different from the terms of the original financial
liability. These fees include only those paid or received between the borrower and the lender,
including fees paid or received by either the borrower or lender on the other’s behalf. An entity
applies the amendment to financial liabilities that are modified or exchanged on or after the
beginning of the annual reporting period in which the entity first applies the amendment. The
amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022 with
earlier adoption permitted. The Group will apply the amendments to financial liabilities that are
modified or exchanged on or after the beginning of the annual reporting period in which the entity
first applies the amendment.

*SGVFSM005911*
- 28 -

Amendments to PAS 41, Agriculture, Taxation in fair value measurements


The amendment removes the requirement in paragraph 22 of PAS 41 that entities exclude cash flows
for taxation when measuring the fair value of assets within the scope of PAS 41. An entity applies
the amendment prospectively to fair value measurements on or after the beginning of the first annual
reporting period beginning on or after January 1, 2022 with earlier adoption permitted.

Effective beginning on or after January 1, 2023

PFRS 17, Insurance Contracts


PFRS 17 provides updated information about the obligation, risks and performance of insurance
contracts, increases transparency in financial information reported by insurance companies, and
introduces consistent accounting for all insurance contracts based on a current measurement model.
The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Early application
is permitted but only if the entity also applies PFRS 9 and PFRS 15.

Amendments to PAS 1, Classification of Liabilities as Current and Non-Current


The amendments clarify the following to specify the requirements for classifying liabilities as current
or non-current:
 What is meant by a right to defer settlement;
 That a right to defer must exist at the end of the reporting period;
 That classification is unaffected by the likelihood that an entity will exercise its deferral right;
 That only if an embedded derivative in a convertible liability is itself an equity instrument would
the terms of a liability not impact its classification.

Deferred effectivity
Amendments to PFRS 10, Consolidated Financial Statements and PAS 28, Investments in Associates
and Joint Ventures - Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint
Venture
The amendments address the conflict between PFRS 10 and PAS 28 in dealing with the loss of
control of a subsidiary that is sold or contributed to an associate or joint venture. The amendments
clarify that a full gain or loss is recognized when a transfer to an associate or joint venture involves a
business as defined in PFRS 3. Any gain or loss resulting from the sale or contribution of assets that
does not constitute a business, however, is recognized only to the extent of unrelated investor’s
interests in the associate or joint venture. On January 13, 2016, the Financial Reporting Standards
Council postponed the original effective date of January 1, 2016 of the said amendments until the
International Accounting Standards Board has completed its broader review of the research project
on equity accounting that may result in the simplification of accounting for such transactions and of
other aspects of accounting for associates and joint ventures.

3. Significant Accounting Judgments and Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in compliance with PFRS requires the Group to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses
and the disclosures of contingent assets and contingent liabilities. Future events may occur which
can cause the assumptions used in arriving at the estimates to change. The effects of any change in
estimates are reflected in the financial statements as they become reasonably determinable.
Judgments and estimates are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other
factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances. The following are the critical judgments and key assumptions that have a significant

*SGVFSM005911*
- 29 -

risk of material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial
year:

Judgments
a. Classification of financial assets
The Group classifies its financial assets depending on the business model for managing those
financial assets and whether the contractual terms of the financial asset are SPPI on the principal
amount outstanding. The Group performs the business model assessment based on observable
factors such as:
 How the performance of the business model and the financial assets held within that business
model are evaluated and reported to the Group’s key management personnel
 Risks that affect the performance of the business model (and the financial assets held within
that business model) and, in particular, the way those risks are managed
 Compensation of business units whether based on the fair value of the assets managed or on
the contractual cash flows collected
 Expected frequency, value and timing of sales

In performing the SPPI test, the Group applies judgment and considers relevant factors such as
the currency in which the financial asset is denominated, the period for which the interest rate is
set, contingent events that would change the amount and timing of cash flows, leverage features,
prepayment and extension terms and other features that may modify the consideration for the
time value of money.

In 2020, the Parent Company disposed investment securities at amortized cost and assessed that
this resulted from a change in business model. PSBank also disposed investment securities at
amortized cost and assessed that the disposal was not inconsistent with the hold-to-collect (HTC)
business model (see Note 8).

In 2019, FMIC disposed all of its investment securities at amortized cost and assessed that this
resulted from unanticipated market changes that are significant to its operations (see Note 8).

b. Consolidation of subsidiaries
The determination whether the Group has control over an investee company requires significant
judgment. The Group considers that the following criteria are all met, including: (a) an investor
has the power over an investee; (b) the investor has exposure, or rights, to variable returns from
its involvement with the investee; and (c) the investor has the ability to use its power over the
investee to affect the amount of the investor’s return.

In accordance with PFRS 10, the Group included the accounts of First Metro Save and Learn
Balance Fund, Inc. (FMSALBF), First Metro Save and Learn Equity Fund, Inc. (FMSALEF),
First Metro Save and Learn Fixed Income Fund, Inc. (FMSLFIF), First Metro Philippine Equity
Exchange Traded Fund, Inc. (FMPETF), First Metro Save and Learn F.O.C.C.U.S. Dynamic
Fund, Inc. and First Metro Save and Learn Money Market Fund, Inc., collectively the “Funds”,
in its consolidated financial statements. The Group re-assessed the control conclusion for these
Funds. Although the ownership is less than half of the voting power of these investees, the
Group has control due to its power to direct the relevant activities of the Funds through First
Metro Asset Management Inc. (FAMI), a subsidiary of FMIC, which acts as the fund manager of
the Funds. Further, the Group has the exposure to variable returns from its investments and its
ability to use its power over the Funds to affect their returns.

*SGVFSM005911*
- 30 -

c. Existence of significant influence over an associate with less than 20.00% ownership
As discussed in Note 11, there are instances that an investor exercises significant influence even
if its ownership is less than 20.00%. The Group applies significant judgment in assessing
whether it holds significant influence over an investee and considers the following:
(a) representation in the board of directors or equivalent governing body of the investee;
(b) participation in policy-making processes, including participation in decisions about dividends
or other distributions; (c) material transactions between the investor and the investee;
(d) interchange of managerial personnel; (e) joint voting agreement with other investors; or
(f) provision of essential technical information.

d. Fair value of financial instruments


Where the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the statement of
financial position or disclosed in the notes to financial statements cannot be derived from active
markets, these are determined using internal valuation techniques using generally accepted
market valuation models. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where
possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgment is required in establishing fair
values. These judgments may include considerations of liquidity and volatility for longer dated
derivatives (Note 5).

e. Leases
Group as lessor
Operating leases
The Group has entered into commercial property leases on its investment properties portfolio and
over various items of furniture, fixtures and equipment. The Group has determined, based on an
evaluation of the terms and conditions of the arrangements (i.e., the lease does not transfer
ownership of the asset to the lessee by the end of the lease term, the lessee has no option to
purchase the asset at a price that is expected to be sufficiently lower than the fair value at the date
the option is exercisable and the lease term is not for the major part of the asset’s economic life),
that it retains all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of these properties which are
leased out on operating leases.

Finance leases
The Group has entered into leases on its transportation and office equipment portfolio. The
Group has determined that it has transferred all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of
the properties to the lessees, that at the inception of the lease, the present value of the minimum
lease payments amounts to at least substantially all of the fair value of the lease asset.

Group as lessee
The Group determines the lease term as the non-cancellable term of the lease, together with any
periods covered by an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain to be exercised, or any
periods covered by an option to terminate the lease, if it is reasonably certain not to be exercised.

Extension and termination options


The Group has several lease contracts that include extension and termination options. The Group
applies judgment in evaluating whether it is reasonably certain whether or not to exercise the
option to renew or terminate the lease. That is, it considers all relevant factors such as leasehold
improvements and location that create an economic incentive for it to exercise either the renewal
or termination. After the commencement date, the Group reassess the lease term if there is a
significant event or change in circumstances that is within its control and affects its ability to
exercise or not to exercise the option to renew or to terminate.

*SGVFSM005911*
- 31 -

Estimating the IBR for lease liabilities


The Group cannot readily determine the interest rate implicit in the lease, therefore, it uses its
IBR to measure lease liabilities. The IBR for lease liabilities is the rate of interest that the Group
would have to pay to borrow over a similar term, and with a similar security, the funds necessary
to obtain an asset of a similar value to the ROU asset in a similar economic environment. The
Group estimates the IBR for lease liabilities using observable inputs (by reference to prevailing
risk-free rates) adjusted to take into account the entity’s credit risk (i.e., credit spread).

f. Contingencies
The Group is currently involved in legal proceedings. The estimate of the probable cost for the
resolution of claims has been developed in consultation with and the aid of the outside legal
counsel handling the Group’s defense in this matter and is based upon an analysis of potential
results. It is probable, however, that future results of operations could be materially affected by
changes in the estimates or in the effectiveness of the strategies relating to these proceedings
(Note 30).

Estimates
a. Credit losses on financial assets
The Group reviews its debt financial assets subject to ECL at least on a semi-annual basis with
updating provisions made during the intervals as necessary based on the continuing analysis and
monitoring of individual accounts by credit officers, as in the case in 2020 when quarterly
reviews and ECL adjustments were made in response to the changing credit environment brought
about by the COVID-19 pandemic. The measurement of credit losses under PFRS 9 across all
categories of such financial assets requires judgment, in particular, the estimation of the amount
and timing of future cash flows and collateral values when determining credit losses and the
assessment of a SICR. These estimates are driven by a number of factors, changes in which can
result in different levels of allowances.

The Group’s ECL calculations are outputs of complex models with a number of underlying
assumptions regarding the choice of variable inputs and their interdependencies. Elements of the
ECL models that are considered accounting judgments and estimates include, among others:
 Segmentation of the portfolio, where the appropriate model or ECL approach is used
 Criteria for assessing if there has been a SICR and so allowances for debt financial assets
should be measured on a lifetime ECL basis and the qualitative assessment. In 2019, Stage 2
included those accounts “Watchlisted” due to financial and repayment concerns, which were
previously under Stage 1, and aligned the definition of default (previously more than 30 days
past due) with the BSP’s definition of non-performing loans, i.e., more than 90 days past
due. In 2020, exposures that were granted payment reprieve strictly as provided for by laws
and relevant regulations were retained under Stage 1, while exposures that were granted
extended reprieve, provided not impaired or not non-performing under relevant rules, were
included under Stage 2. The Parent Company likewise performed quarterly reviews of its
credit exposures to determine the occurrence of SICR notwithstanding said reprieves.
Exposures belonging to sectors widely determined to be most at-risk and non-essential
(e.g., tourism, entertainment and leisure, hotels and restaurants, airlines), and projected to
experience significant revenue and liquidity strain in the event of prolonged economic
inactivity, were also included under Stage 2.
 Segmentation of debt financial assets when their ECL is assessed on a collective basis

*SGVFSM005911*
- 32 -

 Development of ECL models, including the various formulas and the choice of inputs. In
2019, the Parent Company recalibrated its lifetime PD models and loss rates (for portfolios to
which the loss rate approach is applied). In 2020, the Company further recalibrated its PD
and overlay models following the conclusion of validation of the same by an independent
external party.
 Determination of associations between macroeconomic scenarios and economic inputs, such
as unemployment levels and collateral values, and the effect on PDs, EADs and LGDs
 Selection of forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios and their probability weightings, to
derive the economic inputs into the ECL models

The gross carrying amounts of financial assets subject to ECL as of December 31, 2020 and 2019
are disclosed in Note 4, while the related allowances for expected credit losses are disclosed in
Note 15. In 2020 and 2019, provision for credit losses on these financial assets amounted to
=40.8 billion and =
P P9.6 billion, respectively, for the Group and =
P32.7 billion and =
P1.6 billion,
respectively, for the Parent Company (Note 15). With the merger of MCC into the Parent
Company in 2020 (Note 11), the Parent Company’s provision for credit losses in 2020 includes
the provision for credit losses on credit card receivables .

b. Recognition of deferred income taxes


Deferred tax assets are recognized for all unused tax losses and deductible temporary differences
to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses can
be utilized. Significant management judgment is required to determine the amount of deferred
tax assets that can be recognized, based upon the likely timing and level of future taxable profits
together with future tax planning strategies. The estimates of future taxable income indicate that
certain temporary differences will be realized in the future. The Group and the Parent Company
have considered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on future taxable income and on the
recognition of deferred tax assets. The recognized net deferred tax assets and unrecognized
deferred tax assets for the Group and the Parent Company are disclosed in Note 28.

c. Present value of retirement liability


The cost of defined retirement pension plan is determined using actuarial valuations. The
actuarial valuation involves making assumptions about discount rates, future salary increases,
mortality rates and future pension increases. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation
and the long-term nature of these plans, such estimates are subject to significant uncertainty. The
assumed discount rates were determined using the market yields on Philippine government bonds
with terms consistent with the expected employee benefit payout as of the statement of financial
position date. The present values of the retirement liability of the Group and the Parent
Company are disclosed in Note 27.

d. Impairment of non-financial assets


The Group assesses impairment on non-financial assets (property and equipment, investments in
subsidiaries, associates and a JV, investment properties, software costs, chattel mortgage
properties and other assets) whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The factors that the Group considers
important which could trigger an impairment review include the following: a) significant
underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results;
b) significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for overall
business; and c) significant negative industry or economic trends.

*SGVFSM005911*
- 33 -

The Group uses the higher of FVLCTS and VIU in determining the recoverable amount of the
asset. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, there has been a significant and prolonged decline in
the fair value of an associate. In 2019, the VIU was used as the recoverable amount while in
2020, it was based on FVLCTS as it was higher than the VIU. The FVLCTS was based on the
quoted price of the shares less expected selling costs. The VIU calculation is most sensitive to
the following assumptions: (a) production volume; (b) price; (c) exchange rates; (d) capital
expenditures and (e) long-term growth rates. In 2020, the Group considered the impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic in determining the VIU. Based on the Group’s impairment testing as of
December 31, 2020 and 2019, allowance for impairment loss on investment on this associate
amounted to = P439.2 million.

The carrying values of the property and equipment, investments in subsidiaries, associates and a
JV, investment properties, software costs, chattel mortgage properties, and other assets of the
Group and the Parent Company are disclosed in Notes 10, 11, 12 and 14, respectively.

Goodwill
Goodwill is reviewed for impairment, annually or more frequently if events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. Impairment is determined for
goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of the CGU (or group of CGUs) to which the
goodwill relates. Where the recoverable amount of the CGU (or group of CGUs) is less than the
carrying amount of the CGU (or group of CGUs) to which goodwill has been allocated, an
impairment loss is recognized immediately in the statement of income. The recoverable amount
of the CGU is determined based on FVLCTS.

The fair value of the CGU is determined using the cost approach, specifically the adjusted Net
Asset Value (NAV) method. This method requires the measurement of the fair value of the
individual assets and liabilities recognized in the CGU, as well as the fair value of any
unrecognized assets and liabilities at the measurement date. The resulting net fair values of the
assets and liabilities represent the fair value of the CGU. In determining the fair value of the
CGU’s net assets, the Group used the discounted cash flow method for unquoted debt financial
assets/liabilities at the appropriate market rate, the price-to-earnings (P/E) valuation and adjusted
NAV model for unquoted equity investments, and the appraisal reports for the valuation of real
properties. Fair values of listed debt and equity securities are based on their quoted market
prices. The Group applied the P/E valuation model by reference to P/E ratios of listed
comparable companies of the investee company. The FVLCTS calculation of the CGU is most
sensitive to the P/E ratios of listed comparable companies of the investee company. Based on the
sensitivity analysis performed, a one percent (1%) reduction in the P/E ratio used will result in
impairment of the goodwill. The Group considered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in
determining the recoverable amount. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Group’s goodwill
amounted to = P5.2 billion (Note 11).

4. Financial Risk and Capital Management

Introduction
The Group has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments: (a) credit;
(b) liquidity; and (c) market risks.

Risk management framework


The Board of Directors (BOD) has overall responsibility for the oversight of the Parent Company’s
risk management process. On the other hand, the risk management processes of the subsidiaries are
the separate responsibilities of their respective BOD. Supporting the BOD in this function are certain
Board-level committees such as Risk Oversight Committee (ROC), Audit Committee (AC) and
senior management committees through the Executive Committee and Asset and Liability Committee
(ALCO) among others.

The ROC, which is composed primarily of independent members of the BOD, is responsible for
overseeing the Parent Company’s risk infrastructure, the adequacy and relevance of risk policies, and
the compliance to defined risk appetite and levels of exposure. The ROC is assisted in this
responsibility by the Risk Management Group (RSK). The RSK undertakes the implementation and
execution of the Parent Company’s Risk Management framework which involves the identification,
assessment, control, monitoring and reporting of risks.

The Parent Company and its subsidiaries manage their respective financial risks separately. The
subsidiaries have their own risk management processes but are structured similar to that of the Parent
Company. To a certain extent, the respective risk management programs and objectives are the same
across the Group. The risk management policies adopted by the subsidiaries and affiliates are
aligned with the Parent Company’s risk policies. To further promote compliance with PFRS and
Basel III, the Parent Company created a Risk Management Coordinating Council (RMCC) composed
of risk officers of the Parent Company and its financial institution subsidiaries.

Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to
meet its contractual obligations. The Group manages and controls credit risk by setting limits on the
amount of risk it is willing to accept for individual counterparties, related groups of borrowers,
market segments, and industry concentrations, and by monitoring exposures in relation to such limits,
among others. The same is true for treasury-related activities. Each business unit is responsible for
the quality of its credit portfolio and for monitoring and controlling all credit risks in its portfolio.
Regular reviews and audits of business units and credit processes are undertaken by the RSK and
Internal Audit Group, respectively.

Management of credit risk


The Group faces potential credit risks every time it extends funds to borrowers, commits funds to
counterparties, guarantees the paying performance of its clients, invests funds to issuers
(e.g., investment securities issued by either sovereign or corporate entities) or enter into either
market-traded or over-the-counter derivatives, either through implied or actual contractual
agreements (i.e., on- or off-balance sheet exposures). The Parent Company manages its credit risk at
various levels (i.e., strategic level, portfolio level down to individual obligor or transaction) by
adopting a credit risk management environment that has the following components:
 Formulating credit policies in consultation with business units, covering collateral requirements,
credit/financial assessment, risk grading and reporting and compliance with regulatory
requirements;
 Establishment of authorization limits for the approval and renewal of credit facilities;

 Limiting concentrations of exposure to counterparties and industries (for loans), and by issuer
(for investment securities);
 Utilizing the Internal Credit Risk Rating System (ICRRS) in order to categorize exposures
according to their risk profile. The risk grading system is used for determining impairment
provisions against credit exposures. The current risk grading framework consists of ten grades
reflecting varying degrees of risk of default and the availability of collateral or other credit risk
mitigation; and
 Monitoring compliance with approved exposure limits.

Borrowers, counterparties or group of related accounts across the Group are aggregated and managed
by the Parent Company’s Institutional Banking Sector as the “Control Unit”. Group Limits for
conglomerates are set-up and approved to guide subsidiaries and affiliates of the Group.
Consolidated exposures are regularly reported to senior management and the ROC.

Credit risk at initial recognition


The Group uses internal credit assessment and approvals at various levels to determine the credit risk
of exposures at initial recognition. Assessment can be quantitative or qualitative and depends on the
materiality of the facility or the complexity of the portfolio to be assessed.

Modification
In certain circumstances, the Group modifies the original terms and conditions of a credit exposure to
form a new loan agreement or payment schedule. The modifications can be given depending on the
borrower’s or counterparty’s current or expected financial difficulty. The modifications may include,
but are not limited to, change in interest rate and terms, principal amount, maturity date, date and
amount of periodic payments and accrual of interest and charges.

On March 24, 2020, Republic Act No. 11469 or the “Bayanihan to Heal as One Act” (Bayanihan 1)
was enacted declaring a state of national emergency over the entire country to control the spread of
the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). Among the provisions of Bayanihan 1 is the
implementation of a 30-day grace period for all loans with principal and/or interest falling due within
the period of the Enhanced Community Quarantine without incurring interest on interest, on
penalties, fees and other charges. Further, on September 11, 2020, Republic Act No. 11494 or the
“Bayanihan to Recover as One Act” (Bayanihan 2) was enacted and part of the provisions of the
Bayanihan 2 is the implementation of a one-time 60-day grace period to be granted for the payment
of all existing, current and outstanding loans falling due, or any part thereof, on or before
December 31, 2020, without incurring interest on interest, penalties, fees and other charges, thereby
extending the maturity of said loans. In addition, Bayanihan 2 allows loans to be settled on a
staggered basis without interest on interests, penalties, fees or other charges until December 31, 2020
or as may be agreed upon by both parties.

The impact of loan modifications as a result of the Bayanihan 1 and Bayanihan 2 Acts amounted to a
loss of =
P1.7 billion for the Group and =
P1.2 billion for the Parent Company. For the year ended
December 31, 2020, the net impact of the loan modifications (i.e., after subsequent accretion of the
modified loans) amounted to a loss of =P461.3 million, for the Group and nil for the Parent Company.

The maximum exposure to credit risks for the other financial assets is limited to their carrying values
as of December 31, 2020 and 2019.

Collaterals on loans and receivables includes real estate and chattel mortgages, guarantees, and other
registered securities over assets. Generally, collateral is not held over loans and advances to banks
except for reverse repurchase agreements and certain due from other banks. Collateral usually is not
held against investment securities, and no such collateral was held as of December 31, 2020 and
2019. Estimates of fair values of the collateral are based on the value of collateral assessed at the
time of borrowing and are regularly updated according to internal lending policies and regulatory
guidelines. The Group is not permitted to sell or repledge the collateral in the absence of default by
the counterparty.

Excessive risk concentration


Credit risk concentrations can arise whenever a significant number of borrowers have similar
characteristics and are affected similarly by changes in economic or other conditions. The Parent
Company analyzes the credit risk concentration to an individual borrower, related group of accounts,
industry, internal rating buckets, and security. For risk concentration monitoring purposes, the
financial assets are broadly categorized into (1) loans and receivables and (2) trading and financial
investment securities. To mitigate risk concentration, the Parent Company constantly checks for
breaches in regulatory and internal limits.

Credit quality per class of financial assets


The credit quality of financial assets is assessed and managed using external and internal ratings
(applying ICRRS).

The ICRRS contains the following:


a. Borrower Risk Rating (BRR) - an assessment of the credit worthiness of the borrower (or
guarantor) without considering the type or amount of the facility and security arrangements. It is
an indicator of the probability that a borrower cannot meet its credit obligations when they fall
due. The components of the assessment is described below:

Credit Factor
Component Description Weight
Financial Condition Refers to the financial condition of the borrower based on audited financial statements 40.00%
as indicated by certain financial ratios. The Financial Factor Evaluation is conducted
manually.
Industry Analysis Refers to the prospects of the industry as well as the company’s performance and 30.00%
position in the industry.
Management Quality Refers to the management’s ability to run the company successfully. 30.00%

b. Facility Risk Factor (FRF) - determined for each individual facility considering the term of the
facility, security arrangement and quality of documentation. This factor can downgrade or
upgrade the BRR based on the elements relating to cover (collateral including pledged cash
deposits and guarantee), quality of documentation and structure of transactions.

c. Adjusted Borrower Risk Rating - combination of BRR and FRF.

Loans and receivables


The credit quality is generally monitored using the 10-grade ICRRS which is integrated in the credit
process. Validation of the individual borrower’s risk rating is performed by the Credit Group to
maintain accurate and consistent risk ratings across the credit portfolio. For commercial loans, the
credit quality with the corresponding ICRRS Grade and description follows:

High Grade
1 - Excellent
An excellent rating is given to a borrower with a very low probability of going into default and with
high degree of stability, substance and diversity. Borrower has access to raise substantial amounts of
funds through public market at any time; very strong debt service capacity and has conservative
balance sheet ratios. Track record in profit terms is very good. Borrower exhibits highest quality
under virtually all economic conditions.

2 - Strong
This rating is given to borrowers with low probability of going into default in the coming year.
Normally has a comfortable degree of stability, substance and diversity. Under normal market
conditions, borrower has good access to public markets to raise funds. Have a strong market and
financial position with a history of successful performance. Overall debt service capacity is deemed
very strong; critical balance sheet ratios are conservative. Concerned multinationals or local
corporations are well capitalized.

Standard Grade
3 - Good
This rating is given to smaller corporations with limited access to public capital markets or to
alternative financial markets during favorable economic and/or market conditions. As it bears
characteristics of some degree of stability and substance, probability of default is quite low.
However, susceptibility to cyclical changes and more concentration of business risk, by product or

*SGVFSM005911*
- 41 -

market, may be present. Typical is the combination of comfortable asset protection and an
acceptable balance sheet structure. Debt service capacity is strong.

4 - Satisfactory
A ‘satisfactory’ rating is given to a borrower where clear risk elements exist and probability of
default is somewhat greater. Due to volatility of earnings and overall performance, borrower
normally has limited access to public markets. Borrower should be able to withstand normal
business cycles, but any prolonged unfavorable economic period would create deterioration beyond
acceptable levels. With the combination of reasonable sound asset and cash flow protection, the debt
service capacity is adequate. Reported profits in the past year and is expected to report a profit in the
current year.

5 - Acceptable
An ‘acceptable’ rating is given to a borrower whose risk elements are sufficiently pronounced
although borrower should still be able to withstand normal business cycles. Any prolonged
unfavorable economic and/or market period would create an immediate deterioration beyond
acceptable levels. Risk is still acceptable as there is sufficient cash flow either historically or
expected in the future from new business or projected finance transaction; an existing borrower
where the nature of the exposure represents a higher risk because of extraordinary developments but
for which a decreasing risk within an acceptable period can be expected.

Substandard Grade
6 - Watchlist
This rating is given to a borrower that belongs to an unfavorable industry or has company-specific
risk factors which represent a concern. Operating performance and financial strength may be
marginal and it is uncertain if borrower can attract alternative course of finance. Borrower finds it
hard to cope with any significant economic downturn and a default in such a case is more than a
possibility. Borrower which incurs net losses and has salient financial weaknesses specifically in
profitability. Credit exposure is not at risk of loss at the moment but performance of the borrower
has weakened which, unless present trends are reversed, could lead to losses.

7 - Especially Mentioned
This rating is given to a borrower that exhibits potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close
attention. These potential weaknesses, if left uncorrected, may affect the repayment of the loan and
thus, increase credit risk of the Group.

Impaired
8 - Substandard
These are loans or portions thereof which appear to involve a substantial and unreasonable degree of
risk to the Group because of unfavorable record or unsatisfactory characteristics. There exists the
possibility of future losses to the Group unless given closer supervision. Borrower has well-defined
weaknesses or weaknesses that jeopardize loan liquidation. Such well-defined weaknesses may
include adverse trends or development of financial, managerial, economic or political nature, or a
significant weakness in collateral.

9 - Doubtful
This rating is given to a nonperforming borrower whose loans or portions thereof have the
weaknesses inherent in those classified as Substandard, 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.

*SGVFSM005911*
- 42 -

10 - Loss
This rating is given to a borrower whose loans or portions thereof are considered uncollectible or
worthless and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted although
the loans may have some recoveries or salvage value. The amount of loss is difficult to measure and
it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off these basically worthless assets even though partial
recovery may be obtained in the future.

The credit quality of consumer loan applicants are currently evaluated using quantitative and
qualitative criteria. For booked consumer loans, the description of credit quality is as follows:

High Grade
Good credit rating
This rating is given to a good repeat client with very satisfactory track record of its loan repayment
(paid at least 50.00%) and whose account did not turn past due during the entire term of the loan.

Standard Grade
Good
A good rating is given to accounts which did not turn past due for 90 days and over.

Limited
This rating is given to borrowers who have average track record on loan repayment (paid less than
50.00%) and whose account did not turn past due for 90 days and over.

Substandard Grade
Poor
A poor rating is given to accounts who reached 90 days past due regardless of the number of times
and the number of months past due.

Poor litigation
This rating is given to accounts that were past due for 180 days and over and are currently being
handled by lawyers.

Impaired
Poor repossessed
This rating is given to accounts whose collaterals were repossessed.

Poor written-off
This rating is given to accounts that were recommended for write-off.

Investment securities
In ensuring quality investment portfolio, the Group uses the credit risk rating from the published data
providers like Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s (S&P) or other reputable rating agencies. The following
indicates the levels of equivalent credit quality and its relevant external rating:

Credit Quality External Rating


High grade Aaa Aa1 Aa2 A1 A2 A3 Baa1 Baa2 Baa3
Standard grade Ba1 Ba2 Ba3 B1 B2
Substandard grade B3 Caa1 Caa2 Caa3 Ca C
Impaired D

The Group considers a debt security to have low credit risk when its credit risk rating is equivalent to
those rated by external rating agencies as ‘Investment grade’ (i.e., those under High grade in the table
above).

Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the current and prospective risk to earnings or capital arising from the inability to
meet obligations when they come due. This may be caused by the inability to liquidate assets or to
obtain funding to meet liquidity needs.

The Group manages its liquidity risk by holding adequate stock of high quality liquid assets,
analyzing net funding requirements over time, diversifying funding sources and contingency
planning.

To measure the prospective liquidity needs, the Group uses Maximum Cumulative Outflow (MCO),
a liquidity gap tool to project short-term as well as long-term cash flow expectations on a business-
as-usual condition.

The MCO is generated by distributing the cash flows of the Group’s assets, liabilities and off-balance
sheet items to time bands based on cash flow expectations such as contractual maturity, nature of the
account, behavioral patterns, projections on business strategies, and/or optionality of certain
products. The incorporation of behavioral cash flow assumptions and business projections or targets
results in a dynamic gap report which realistically captures the behavior of the products and creates a
forward-looking cash flow projection.

Cash flows from assets are considered as cash inflows, while cash flows from liabilities are
considered cash outflows. The net cash flows are determined for each given time period. If the
inflows exceed the outflows, the Group is said to have a positive liquidity gap or excess funds for the
given time bucket. Conversely, if the outflows exceed the inflows, the Group is said to have a
negative liquidity gap or funding need for the given time bucket.

The MCO is monitored regularly to ensure that it remains within the set limits. The Parent Company
generates and monitors daily its MCO, while the subsidiaries generate the report at least monthly.
The liquidity profile of the Group is reported monthly to the Parent Company’s ALCO and ROC.

To supplement the business-as-usual scenario parameters reflected in the MCO report, the Group
also conducts liquidity stress testing to determine the impact of extreme factors, scenarios and/or
events to the Group’s liquidity profile. Liquidity stress testing exercise is performed quarterly on a
per firm basis, and at least annually on the Group-wide level.

Financial assets
Analysis of debt securities into maturity groupings is based on the expected date on which these
assets will be realized. For other financial assets, the analysis into maturity groupings is based on the
remaining period from the end of the reporting period to the contractual maturity date or, if earlier,
the expected date the assets will be realized.

Financial liabilities
The maturity groupings are based on the remaining period from the end of the reporting period to the
contractual maturity date. When a counterparty has a choice of when the amount is paid, the liability
is allocated to the earliest period in which the Group can be required to pay.

Market Risk
Market risk is the possibility of loss to future earnings, fair values, or future cash flows that may
result from changes in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial instrument may
change as a result of changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and other market factors.
Market risk originates from holdings in foreign currencies, debt securities, and derivatives
transactions.

Depending on the business model for the product, i.e., whether they belong to the trading book or
banking book, the Group applies different tools and processes to manage market risk exposures.
Risk limits, approved by the BOD, are enforced to monitor and control this risk. RSK, as an
independent body under the ROC, performs daily market risk analyses to ensure compliance to
policies and limits, while Treasury Group manages the asset/liability risks arising from both banking
book and trading operations in financial markets. The ALCO, chaired by the President, manages
market risks within the parameters approved by the BOD.

*SGVFSM005911*
- 62 -

As part of group supervision, the Parent Company regularly coordinates with subsidiaries to monitor
their compliance to their respective risk tolerances and to ensure alignment of risk management
practices. Each subsidiary has its own risk management unit responsible for monitoring its market
risk exposures. The Parent, however, requires regular submission of market risk profiles which are
presented to ALCO and ROC in both individual and consolidated forms to provide senior
management and ROC a holistic perspective, and ensure alignment of strategies and risk appetite
across the Group.

Market risk - trading book


In measuring the potential loss in its trading portfolio, the Parent Company uses VaR. VaR is an
estimate of the potential decline in the value of a portfolio, under normal market conditions, for a
given “confidence level” over a specified holding period. The Parent Company measures and
monitors the Trading Book VaR daily, and this value is compared against the set VaR limit.
Meanwhile, the Group VaR is monitored and reported monthly.

VaR methodology assumptions and parameters


Historical Simulation (HS) is used to compute the VaR. This method assumes that market rates
volatility in the future will follow the same movement that occurred within the 260-day historical
period. In calculating VaR, a 99.00% confidence level and a one-day holding period are assumed.
This means that, statistically, within a one-day horizon, the trading losses will exceed VaR in 1 out of
100 trading days.

Like any other model, the HS method has its own limitations. To wit, it cannot predict volatility
levels which did not happen in the specified historical period. The validity of the VaR model is
verified through a daily backtesting analysis, which examines how frequently both actual and
hypothetical daily losses exceed VaR. The result of the daily backtesting analysis is reported to the
ALCO and ROC monthly.

A summary of the VaR levels of the trading portfolio of the Parent Company appears below:

Rates and Foreign Exchange (FX) VaR is the correlated VaR of the following products: FX spot,
outright forward, non-deliverable forwards, FX swaps, interest rate swaps, and cross-currency swaps.
The Fixed Income VaR is the correlated VaR of these products: peso and foreign currency bonds,
bond forwards and credit default swaps (CDS).

Subsidiaries with trading books perform daily mark-to-market valuation and VaR calculations for
their exposures. Risk exposures are bounded by a system of risk limits and monitoring tools to
effectively manage the risks.

The limitations of the VaR methodology are recognized by supplementing VaR limits with other
position and sensitivity limit structures and by doing stress testing analysis. These processes address
potential product concentration risks, monitor portfolio vulnerability and give the management an
early advice if an actual loss goes beyond what is deemed to be tolerable to the Group and the Parent
Company, even before the VaR limit is hit.

Stress testing is performed by the Parent Company on a quarterly basis and the results are reported to
the ALCO and, subsequently, to the ROC and BOD. On a Group-wide perspective, stress testing is
done, at least, annually. The results are reported by the Parent Company’s Risk Management Group
to the BOD through ROC.

Market risk - banking book


The Group has in place their own risk management system and processes to quantify and manage
market risks in the banking book. To the extent applicable, these are generally aligned with the
Parent’s framework/tools.

The Group assesses interest rate risk in the banking book using measurement tools such as Interest
Rate Repricing Gap, Earnings-at-Risk (EaR), Delta Economic Value of Equity (ΔEVE), and
Sensitivity Analysis.

Interest Rate Repricing Gap is a tool that distributes rate-sensitive assets and liabilities into pre-
defined tenor buckets according to time remaining to their maturity (if fixed rate) or repricing (if
floating rate). Items lacking definitive repricing schedule (e.g., current and savings account) and
items with actual maturities that could vary from contractual maturities (e.g., securities with
embedded options) are assigned to repricing tenor buckets based on analysis of historical patterns,
past experience and/or expert judgment.

EaR measures the possible decline in the Group’s net interest income as a result of adverse interest
rate movements, given the current repricing profile. It is a tool used to evaluate the sensitivity of the
accrual portfolio to changes in interest rates in the adverse direction over the next twelve (12)
months.

EaR methodology assumptions and parameters


The Group calculates EaR using Historical Simulations (HS) approach, with one-year horizon and
using five years data. EaR is then derived as the 99th percentile biggest drop in net interest income.

*SGVFSM005911*

The table below shows the EaR profile of the Parent Company and certain subsidiaries as of
December 31, 2020 and 2019:

* Merged into the Parent Company effective January 3, 2020 (Note 11)

The Parent Company generates and monitors daily its EaR exposure while the subsidiaries generate
their EaR reports at least monthly.

The Parent Company employs the Delta EVE model to measure the overall change in the economic
value of the bank at one point. It reflects the changes in the net present value of its banking book at
different interest rate shocks and stress scenarios. ΔEVE is calculated by slotting the notional
repricing cash flows arising from rate-sensitive assets and liabilities into pre-defined tenor buckets.
The present value of the net repricing cash flows is then calculated using various interest rate
scenarios prescribed by Basel as well as scenarios internally developed by the Parent Company.

For 2020, the ΔEVE of the Parent Company ranges from (P =5.26 billion) to (P
=25.09 billion). As of
December 29, 2020, the ΔEVE stood at (P =25.09 billion) or 11.24% of CETI Capital. Metrobank has
adequate capital to support potential change in value of equity even at worst stress scenario.

Aside from the tools above, the Parent Company and its subsidiaries perform regular sensitivity and
stress testing analyses on their banking books to broaden their forward-looking analysis. This way,
management can craft strategies to address and/or arrest probable risks, if necessary.

Foreign currency risk


Foreign exchange risk is the probability of loss to earnings or capital arising from changes in foreign
exchange rates. Foreign currency liabilities generally consist of foreign currency deposits in the
Group’s FCDU account. Foreign currency deposits are generally used to fund the Group’s foreign
currency-denominated loan and investment portfolio in the FCDU. Banks are required by the BSP to
match the foreign currency liabilities with the foreign currency assets held in FCDUs. Outside the
FCDU, the Group has additional foreign currency assets and liabilities in its foreign branch network.
The Group’s policy is to maintain foreign currency exposure within acceptable limits and within
existing regulatory guidelines.

The following table sets forth, for the year indicated, the impact of reasonably possible changes in
the USD exchange rate and other currencies per Philippine peso on pre-tax income and equity:

Information relating to the Parent Company’s currency derivatives is included in Note 8. As of


December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Parent Company has outstanding foreign currency spot
transactions (in equivalent peso amounts) of =P12.3 billion and =
P21.24 billion, respectively (sold), and
=4.0 billion and =
P P13.85 billion, respectively (bought).

The impact on the Parent Company’s equity already excludes the impact on transactions affecting the
profit and loss.

Capital Management
The primary objectives of the Group’s capital management are to ensure that it complies with
externally imposed capital requirements and maintains strong credit ratings and healthy capital ratios
in order to support its business and to maximize shareholders’ value.

The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it in the light of changes in
economic conditions and the risk characteristics of its activities. In order to maintain or adjust the
capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividend payment to shareholders, return
capital structure, or issue capital securities. No changes were made in the objectives, policies and
processes from the previous year.

BSP Reporting
Regulatory Qualifying Capital
Under existing BSP regulations, the determination of the compliance with regulatory requirements
and ratios is based on the amount of the “unimpaired capital” (regulatory net worth) as reported to
the BSP, which is determined on the basis of regulatory accounting policies that differ from PFRS in
some respects.

The Group complied with BSP Circular No. 781, Basel III Implementing Guidelines on Minimum
Capital Requirements, which provides the implementing guidelines on the revised risk-based capital
adequacy framework particularly on the minimum capital and disclosure requirements for universal
banks and commercial banks, as well as their subsidiary banks and quasi-banks, in accordance with
the Basel III standards. The Circular sets out a minimum Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio of
6.00% and Tier 1 capital ratio of 7.50%; capital conservation buffer of 2.50% comprised of CET1
capital and Total Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) of 10.00%. These ratios shall be maintained at all
times. Further, BSP Circular No. 856 covers the implementing guidelines on the framework for
dealing with domestic systemically important banks (DSIBs) in accordance with the Basel III
standards. Banks identified as DSIBs shall be required to have higher loss absorbency, on top of the
minimum CET1 capital and capital conservation buffer. Compliance with this requirement was
phased-in starting January 1, 2017, with full compliance on January 1, 2019.

The details of CAR, as reported to the BSP, as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 follow:

for the Parent Company

Qualifying capital and risk-weighted assets (RWA) are computed based on BSP regulations. Under
Basel III, the regulatory qualifying capital of the Parent Company consists of CET1 capital, which
comprises paid-up common stock, additional paid-in capital, retained earnings including current year
profit, retained earnings reserves, OCI and non-controlling interest less required regulatory
deductions. The other component of regulatory capital is Tier 2 (supplementary) capital, which
includes unsecured subordinated debts and general loan loss provision. RWA consist of total assets
excluding cash on hand, due from BSP, loans covered by hold-out on or assignment of deposits,
loans or acceptances under letters of credit to the extent covered by margin deposits and other non-
risk items determined by the Monetary Board (MB) of the BSP. Operational RWA are computed
using the Basic Indicator Approach.

The Group and its individually regulated operations have complied with all externally imposed
capital requirements throughout the year.

The Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP) supplements the BSP’s risk-based
capital adequacy framework. In compliance with this, the Group has adopted and developed its
ICAAP framework to ensure that appropriate level and quality of capital are maintained by the
Group. Under this framework, the assessment of risks extends beyond the Pillar 1 set of credit,
market and operational risks and onto other risks deemed material by the Group. The level and
structure of capital are assessed and determined in light of the Group’s business environment, plans,
performance, risks and budget as well as regulatory edicts.

Basel III Leverage Ratio (BLR)


BSP Circular Nos. 881 and 990 cover the implementing guidelines on the BLR framework designed
to act as a supplementary measure to the risk-based capital requirements and shall not be less than
5.00%. The monitoring period has been set every quarter starting December 31, 2014 and extended
until June 30, 2018. Effective July 1, 2018, the monitoring of the leverage ratio was implemented as
a Pillar I minimum requirement.

The details of the BLR, as reported to the BSP, as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 follow:

Under the framework, BLR is defined as the capital measure divided by the exposure measure.
Capital measure is Tier 1 capital. Exposure measure is the sum of on-balance sheet exposures,
derivative exposures, security financing exposures and off-balance sheet items.

Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR)


BSP Circular No. 905 provides the implementing guidelines on LCR and disclosure standards that
are consistent with the Basel III framework. The LCR is the ratio of high-quality liquid assets to
total net cash outflows which should not be lower than 100.00%. Compliance with the LCR
minimum requirement commenced on January 1, 2018 with the prescribed minimum ratio of 90.00%

*SGVFSM005911*

for 2018 and 100.00% effective January 1, 2019. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the LCR in
single currency as reported to the BSP, was at 303.47% and 245.10%, respectively for the Group, and
321.18% and 279.11%, respectively for the Parent Company.

Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR)


On June 6, 2018, the BSP issued BSP Circular No.1007 covering the implementing guidelines on the
adoption of the Basel III Framework on Liquidity Standards – NSFR. The NSFR is aimed to
promote long-term resilience against liquidity risk by requiring banks to maintain a stable funding
profile in relation to the composition of its assets and off-balance sheet activities. It complements the
LCR, which promotes short term resilience of a bank's liquidity profile. Banks shall maintain an
NSFR of at least 100 percent (100%) at all times. The implementation of the minimum NSFR shall
be phased in to help ensure that covered banks can meet the standard through reasonable measures
without disrupting credit extension and financial market activities. An observation period was set
from July 1 to December 31, 2018. Effective, January 1, 2019, banks shall comply with the
prescribed minimum ratio of 100%. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the NSFR as reported to the
BSP, was at 169.94% and 148.53%, respectively for the Group, and 173.27% and 150.61%,
respectively for the Parent Company.

5. Fair Value Measurement

Financial Instruments
The methods and assumptions used by the Group and the Parent Company in estimating the fair
values of financial assets and financial liabilities are:

Cash and other cash items, due from BSP and other banks and interbank loans receivable and
SPURA
Carrying amounts approximate fair values in view of the relatively short-term maturities of these
instruments.

Trading and investment securities


Fair values of debt and equity securities are generally based on quoted market prices. Where the debt
securities are not quoted or the market prices are not readily available, the Group and the Parent
Company obtained valuations from independent parties offering pricing services, used adjusted
quoted market prices of comparable investments, or applied discounted cash flow methodologies. For
equity securities that are not quoted, remeasurement to their fair values is not material to the financial
statements.

Derivative instruments
Fair values are estimated based on quoted market prices, prices provided by independent parties, or
prices derived using acceptable valuation models. The models utilize published underlying rates
(e.g. interest rates, FX rates, CDS rates, FX volatilities and spot and forward FX rates) and are
implemented through validated calculation engines.

Loans and receivables


Fair values of the Group’s loans and receivables are estimated using the discounted cash flow
methodology, using current incremental lending rates for similar types of loans. Where the
instrument reprices on a quarterly basis or has a relatively short maturity, the carrying amounts
approximate fair values.

*SGVFSM005911*
- 68 -

Liabilities
Fair values are estimated using the discounted cash flow methodology using the Group’s current
borrowing rate for similar borrowings with maturities consistent with those remaining for the liability
being valued, if any. The carrying amounts of demand and savings deposit liabilities and other short-
term liabilities approximate fair values considering that these are either due and demandable or with
short-term maturities.

Non-Financial Assets
Investment properties
Fair value of investment properties is determined based on valuations performed by independent and
in-house appraisers using valuation technique with significant inputs that are not based on observable
market data (Level 3). The valuation of investment properties was based on the Sales Comparison
Approach and considered recent sales of similar or substitute properties in the same areas where the
investment properties are located, taking into account the economic conditions prevailing at the time
of the valuation. Other factors considered were the location and shape of the properties,
environmental issues, development controls such as the height restrictions, building coverage and
floor area ratio restrictions, among others. The fair value of investment properties is based on its
highest and best use, which is their current use.

The following tables summarize the carrying amounts and fair values of assets and liabilities,
analyzed among those whose fair value is based on:
 Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1);
 Those involving inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the
asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices) (Level 2); and
 Those with inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data
(unobservable inputs) (Level 3).

When fair values of listed equity and debt securities, as well as publicly traded derivatives at the
reporting date are based on quoted market prices or binding dealer price quotations, without any
adjustments for transaction costs, the instruments are included within Level 1 of the hierarchy.

For all other financial instruments, fair value is determined using valuation techniques. Valuation
techniques include net present value techniques, comparison to similar instruments for which market
observable prices exist and other revaluation models. Instruments included in Level 3 include those
for which there is currently no active market.

As of December 31, 2019, the fair value hierarchy of FVOCI debt and equity securities amounting to
=1.4 billion and =
P P1.2 million, respectively, were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 due to absence
of an active market.

6. Segment Information

The Group’s operating businesses are recognized and managed separately according to the nature of
services provided and the different markets served with segment representing a strategic business
unit. Operating segments are reported in accordance with internal reporting to the Senior
Management who is responsible for allocating resources to the segments and assessing its
performance.

The Group’s business segments follow:

 Consumer Banking - principally providing consumer type loans and support for effective
sourcing and generation of consumer business;
 Corporate Banking - principally handling loans and other credit facilities and deposit and current
accounts for corporate and institutional customers;
 Investment Banking - principally arranging structured financing, and providing services relating
to privatizations, initial public offerings, mergers and acquisitions; and providing advisory
services primarily aimed to create wealth to individuals and institutions;
 Treasury - principally providing money market, trading and treasury services, as well as the
management of the Group’s funding operations by use of treasury bills, government securities
and placements and acceptances with other banks, through treasury and corporate banking;
 Branch Banking - principally handling branch deposits and providing loans and other loan
related businesses for domestic middle market clients; and
 Others - principally handling other services including but not limited to remittances, leasing,
account financing, and other support services. Other operations of the Group comprise the
operations and financial control groups.

Segment assets are those operating assets that are employed by a segment in its operating activities
and that either are directly attributable to the segment or can be allocated to the segment on a
reasonable basis. Segment liabilities are those operating liabilities that result from the operating
activities of a segment and that either are directly attributable to the segment or can be allocated to
the segment on a reasonable basis.

Interest income is reported net, as management primarily relies on the net interest income as
performance measure, not the gross income and expense. The Group has no significant customers
which contributes 10.00% or more of the consolidated revenue net of interest expense. Transactions
between segments are conducted at estimated market rates on an arm’s length basis. Interest is
charged/credited to business segments based on a pool rate which approximates the cost of funds.

The following table presents revenue and income information of operating segments presented in
accordance with PFRS and segment assets and liabilities:

In May 2020, the BOD of the Parent Company approved the change in business model for its debt
securities carried at amortized cost in line with its revised balance sheet risk strategy. The Parent
Company considered the pandemic a Black Swan scenario as it is unprecedented in all aspects, with
the full economic and banking industry impact still unknown. This called for the Parent Company to
recalibrate its balance sheet risk strategy given the drastic change in the economic landscape. The
revised balance sheet strategy provides a framework for the Parent Company to assess the
appropriate mix of assets, liabilities and capital under five economic scenarios, with the objective of
ensuring reliable liquidity and steady stream of accruals. Upon assessment of the current economic
environment, maturity profile and credit quality of loans, CASA placements and maturity profile of
the investment securities portfolio, the Parent Company deemed that the existing business model is
no longer appropriate since its objective of supporting a stable growth of deposit liabilities with core
holdings of investment securities can no longer be met due to the effect of the global health crisis
over the foreseeable future. This resulted to disposal of investment securities at amortized cost in

June 2020 with total carrying value of P=93.9 billion. Trading gains recognized from the disposal
amounted to = P6.9 billion. On July 1, 2020, the remaining debt securities with total carrying value of

P =103.9 billion were reclassified to investment securities at FVOCI.
As of December 31, 2020, the carrying value of the debt securities reclassified to investment
securities at FVOCI as of December 31, 2020 amounted to = P56.9 billion with net unrealized gain of
=

In 2020, PSBank sold investment securities classified as investment securities at amortized cost with
total carrying amount of P=19.6 billion resulting in gain on disposal of investment securities at
amortized cost totaling =P1.3 billion. The sale was made as there were changes in PSBank’s funding
requirements given its assessment on the impact of a prolonged pandemic. In aggregate, the sale in
2020 is not inconsistent with PSBank’s HTC business model as the sale was considered infrequent
even if significant in value. Accordingly, the remaining investment securities in the affected HTC
portfolio continue to be measured at amortized cost. Further, PSBank assessed that the sale did not
reflect a change in PSBank’s objectives for the HTC business model.

In August 2019, the BOD of FMIC approved the disposal of its debt securities portfolio at amortized
cost with total face value of =
P15.1 billion and the abandonment of the related HTC business models
due to external changes that are significant to its operations. Of the =
P15.1 billion disposal, the Parent
Company purchased P =6.6 billion and subsequently sold securities totaling =P2.5 billion in 2020 and

P
gain - net’) recognized from the disposal amounted to = P77.1 million and =P172.8 million, respectively
for the Group, and =P77.1 million and =P32.1 million, respectively for the Parent Company. The
outstanding balances of these securities in the Parent Company books amounted to = P13.5 million

The amounts of “transfers to/(from)” include the changes in the ECL on the exposures transferred
from one stage to another during the year.

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the ECL allowances on loan commitments and financial
guarantees are included in ‘Miscellaneous liabilities’ under ‘Other liabilities’ (Note 21).

The increase in the ECL allowances was driven by the adoption of supplemental SICR rules to
account for the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the credit risk exposures, anticipatory credit
downgrades, adjustments to projected recovery rates resulting to increasing LGDs and significantly
depressed macroeconomic indicators.

The ECL allowance on accounts receivables of the Group and the Parent Company based on their
aging as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 follows:

*Impact of merger of MCC into the Parent Company (Note 11)

On April 15, 2013, of the BOD of the Parent Company approved the issuance of Basel III-compliant
Tier 2 capital notes of up to USD500 million in one or more tranches, issued as part of its regulatory
capital compliance and to proactively manage its capital base for growth and refinancing of maturing
capital securities which was also approved by the BSP on July 26, 2013 and the amendment to the
terms and conditions on January 30, 2014. Specifically, the BSP approved the issuance of up to
USD500 million equivalent in either USD or PHP or combination in one or more tranches over the
course of one (1) year. The Peso Notes issued by the Parent Company are unsecured and
subordinated obligations and will rank pari passu and without any preference among themselves and
at least equally with all its other present and future unsecured and subordinated obligations. These
Peso Notes have a term of 10.25 and 11 years and are redeemable at the option of the Parent
Company (but not the holders) on the call option date in whole but not in part at redemption price
equal to 100.00% of the principal amount together with accrued and unpaid interest on the call option
date, upon prior approval of the BSP and at least 30-banking day prior written notice to the
Noteholders of record, subject to the following conditions: (1) the capital adequacy of the Issuer is at
least equal to the required minimum ratio; (2) the note is simultaneously replaced with the issues of
new capital which are neither smaller in size nor lower in quality than the original issue.
Furthermore, upon the occurrence of a Tax Redemption Event or a Regulatory Redemption Event,
the Parent Company may, upon prior approval of the BSP and at least a 30-banking day prior written
notice to the Noteholders on record, redeem all and not less than all of the outstanding Notes prior to
the stated maturity by paying the Noteholder the Redemption Option Amount which, (a) in the case

*SGVFSM005911*
- 105 -

of a Tax Redemption Event is an amount equal to 100.00% of the face value of the Note plus accrued
Interest at the Interest Rate relating to the then current Interest Period up to but excluding the date of
such redemption, and (b) in the case of a Regulatory Redemption Event is an amount equal to
101.00% of the face value of the Note plus accrued Interest at the Interest Rate relating to the then
current Interest Period up to but excluding the date of such redemption. The Notes have a loss
absorption feature which are subject to a Non-Viability Write-Down in case of the occurrence of a
Non-Viability Trigger Event, subject to certain conditions as set out in “Terms and Conditions of the
Notes - Loss Absorption Measure”, when the Issuer is considered non-viable as determined by the
BSP. Non-Viability is a deviation from a certain level of CET1 Ratio or the inability of the Issuer to
continue business (closure) or any other event as determined by the BSP, whichever comes earlier.
A Non-Viability Trigger Event shall be deemed to have occurred if the BSP notifies the Issuer in
writing that it has determined that a: (i) a Write-Down (as defined in “Terms and Conditions of the
Notes”) of the Notes and other capital instruments of the Issuer is necessary because, without such
Write-Down, the Issuer would become non-viable, (ii) public sector injection of capital, or equivalent
support, is necessary because, without such injection or support, the Issuer would become non-viable,
or (iii) Write-Down of the Notes and other capital instruments of the Issuer is necessary because, as a
result of the closure of the Issuer, the Issuer has become non-viable.

Each Noteholder may not exercise or claim any right of set-off in respect of any amount owed to it
by the Parent Company arising under or in connection with the Peso Notes and to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, waive and be deemed to have waived all such rights of set-off. These
Notes are not deposits and are not insured by the Philippine Deposit Insurance Corporation.

business is appropriated to surplus reserves. This yearly appropriation is required until the surplus
reserve for trust business equals 20.0% of the Parent Company’s regulatory net worth.

27. Retirement Plan and Other Employee Benefits

The Parent Company and most of its subsidiaries have funded non-contributory defined benefit
retirement plan covering all their respective permanent and full-time employees. Benefits are based
on the employee’s years of service and final plan salary.

For employees of the Parent Company, retirement from service is compulsory upon the attainment of
the 55th birthday or 30th year of service, whichever comes first.

The existing regulatory framework, Republic Act (RA) 7641 (Retirement Pay Law) requires a
provision for retirement pay to qualified private sector employees in the absence of any retirement
plan in the entity, provided, however that the employee’s retirement benefits under any collective
bargaining and other agreements shall not be less than those provided under the law. The law does
not require minimum funding of the plan. The Parent Company and most of its subsidiaries meet the
minimum retirement benefit specified under RA 7641.

28. Income and Other Taxes

Under Philippine tax laws, the RBU of the Parent Company and its domestic subsidiaries are subject
to percentage and other taxes (presented as ‘Taxes and licenses’ in the statement of income) as well
as income taxes. Percentage and other taxes paid consist principally of gross receipts tax (GRT) and
documentary stamp tax (DST). Income taxes include 30.00% regular corporate income tax (RCIT)
and 20.00% final taxes paid, which is a final withholding tax on gross interest income from
government securities and other deposit substitutes. Interest allowed as a deductible expense is
reduced by an amount equivalent to 33.00% of interest income subjected to final tax.

Current tax regulations also provide for the ceiling on the amount of EAR expense (Note 25) that can
be claimed as a deduction against taxable income. Under the regulation, EAR expense allowed as a
deductible expense for a service company like the Parent Company and some of its subsidiaries is
limited to the actual EAR paid or incurred but not to exceed 1.00% of net revenue. The regulations

*SGVFSM005911*
- 118 -

also provide for MCIT of 2.00% on modified gross income and allow a NOLCO. The MCIT and
NOLCO may be applied against the Group’s income tax liability and taxable income, respectively,
over a three-year period from the year of inception. For the taxable years 2020 and 2021, the
NOLCO incurred can be carried over as a deduction for the next five (5) consecutive taxable years,
pursuant to Revenue Regulation No. 25-2020.

FCDU offshore income (income from non-residents) is tax-exempt while gross onshore income
(income from residents) is subject to 10.00% income tax. In addition, interest income on deposit
placements with other FCDUs and offshore banking units (OBUs) is taxed at 15.00%. Income
derived by the FCDU from foreign currency-denominated transactions with non-residents, OBUs,
local commercial banks including branches of foreign banks is tax-exempt while interest income on
foreign currency loans from residents other than OBUs or other depository banks under the expanded
system is subject to 10.00% income tax.

Following are the applicable taxes and tax rates for the foreign branches of the Parent Company:
Foreign Branches Tax Rates
USA - New York Branch 21.00% federal income tax; 8.85% state tax; 6.50% city tax
Japan - Tokyo and Osaka Branches 2020 - 23.20% income tax; 2019 - 23.40% income tax;

31. Related Party Transactions

Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the
other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating
decisions or if they are subjected to common control or common significant influence such as
subsidiaries and associates of subsidiaries or other related parties. Related parties may be individuals
or corporate entities and are classified as entities with significant influence, subsidiaries, associates,
other related parties and key personnel (Notes 2 and 11).

The Group has several business relationships with related parties. Transactions with such parties are
made in the ordinary course of business and on substantially same terms, including interest and
collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other parties. These
transactions also did not involve more than the normal risk of collectibility and did not present other
unfavorable conditions.

The Parent Company has a Related Party Transactions Committee (RPTC) and a Related Party
Transactions Management Committee (RPTMC), both of which are created to assist the BOD in
ensuring that transactions with related parties are reviewed to assess risks and are subjected to
appropriate restrictions to ensure that these are conducted at arm’s-length terms and that corporate or
business resources of the Parent Company are not misappropriated or misapplied. After appropriate
review, RPTMC (through RPTC) and RPTC disclose all information and endorses to the BOD with
recommendations, the proposed related party transactions. The members of the RPTC are appointed
annually by the BOD, composed of at least three (3) Board non-executive members, two (2) of whom
should be independent directors, including the Chairman. Currently, RPTC is composed of three (3)
independent directors (including the Committee’s Chairman); the head of Internal Audit Group (as

*SGVFSM005911*
- 122 -

Resource Person); and the Compliance Officer (as the Committee Secretary) and meets bi-monthly or
as the need arises. On the other hand, RPTMC members are appointed annually by the President,
composed of at least four (4) members. RPTC’s and RPTMC’s review of the proposed related party
transactions considers the following: (a) identity and relationship of the parties involved in the
transaction; (b) terms of the transaction and whether these are no less favorable than terms generally
available to an unrelated third party under the same circumstances; (c) business purpose, timing,
rationale and benefits of the transaction; (d) approximate monetary value of the transaction and the
approximate monetary value of the related party’s interest in the transaction; (e) valuation
methodology used and alternative approaches to valuation of the transaction; (f) information
concerning potential counterparties in the transaction; (g) description of provisions or limitations
imposed as a result of entering into the transaction; (h) whether the proposed transaction includes any
potential reputational risk issues that may arise as a result of or in connection with the transaction; (i)
impact to a director’s independence; (j) extent that such transaction or relationship would present an
improper conflict of interest; and (k) the availability of other sources of comparable products or
services. Further, no director or officer participates in any discussion of a related party transaction
for which he, she, or any member of his or her immediate family is a related party, including
transactions of subordinates except in order to provide material information on the related party
transaction to RPTC.

Major subsidiaries, which include FMIC, PSBank, MCC (until 2019 - see Note 11) and MBCL, have
their own respective RPTCs which assist their respective BODs in ensuring that transactions with
related parties are reviewed to assess risks and are subjected to appropriate restrictions to ensure that
these are conducted at arm’s-length terms and that their corporate or business resources are not
misappropriated or misapplied.

missed contractual payments, when they are considered impaired under existing accounting
standards, classified as doubtful or loss, in litigation, and/or there is evidence that full repayment
of principal or interest is unlikely without foreclosure of collateral, if any. All other loans, even if
not considered impaired, shall be considered non-performing if any principal and/or interest are
unpaid for more than ninety (90) days from contractual due date, or accrued interests for more than
ninety (90) days have been capitalized, refinanced, or delayed by agreement. Restructured loans
shall be considered non-performing. However, if prior to restructuring, the loans were categorized
as performing, such classification shall be retained. Moreover, NPLs shall remain classified as
such until (a) there is sufficient evidence to support that full collection of principal and interests is
probable and payments of interest and/or principal are received for at least six (6) months; or (b)
