BSP, AMA Bank reach compromise to resolve closure dispute

THE BANGKO SENTRAL ng Pilipinas (BSP) on Monday said it has entered an agreement with AMA Rural Bank of Mandaluyong, Inc. (AMA Bank) to resolve the issues surrounding the latter’s closure.

“For the protection of the interests of the depositors and bank clients of AMA Rural Bank of Mandaluyong, Inc., the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas and AMA Bank have mutually and amicably resolved all of their disputes fully and comprehensively and have agreed to enter into an agreement,” the central bank said in a statement on Monday.

It advised AMA Bank depositors, creditors and other clients to submit their claims for payment and direct all their concerns to the bank.

“In accordance with the Compromise Agreement between BSP and AMA Bank, AMA Bank shall continue to be under the regulatory jurisdiction of the BSP for the purpose of ensuring its implementation.”

In November 2019, the central bank issued a circular ordering the closure of AMA Bank amid alleged liquidity problems, prompting the Philippine Deposit Insurance Corp. (PDIC) to take over and liquidate the bank’s assets.

However, AMA Bank appealed the order before the Supreme Court and was later permitted to reopen after the Court of Appeals found insufficient grounds to warrant the closure order. The High Court then upheld the appellate court’s ruling, instructing the BSP and PDIC to restore the bank’s full operational status and returned the seized assets.

AMA Bank’s head office is in Mandaluyong City. It has 12 branches located in Pasig City; Baguio City; San Fernando City, La Union; Tuguegarao City, Cagayan; Baliuag, Bulacan; San Fernando, Pampanga; Bacoor, Cavite; Cainta and Morong in Rizal; Calamba City and San Pablo City in Laguna; and Palo, Leyte. — Katherine K.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…
