PDIC to bid out P78M foreclosed bank assets

-

MANILA — State-run Philippine Deposit Insurance Corp. (PDIC) is eyeing P78 million from the disposal of several foreclosed assets of closed banks in the provinces towards the end of the month.

The public bidding of the 75 closed banks and corporate assets is scheduled on May 29.

Up for bidding are 40 residentia­l lots, 31 residentia­l lots with improvemen­ts, three commercial lots with improvemen­ts, and a road lot sold with five residentia­l lots.

The properties are located in Metro Manila, Aklan, Albay, Bataan, Batangas, Camarines Sur, Cavite, Negros Oriental, Quezon, and Rizal.

Each bid should be accompanie­d by a bond or deposit equivalent to at least 10 percent of the submitted bid, in cash or manager’s check, or a combinatio­n thereof.

The winning bidder should pay the balance of the bid/purchase price in full within 15 calendar days from the receipt of the certificat­e of award or not later than June 13.

Bidders are advised to physically inspect the properties they are interested to buy, examine and verify the titles and other evidence of ownership, and determine any unpaid taxes, fees, charges and expenses before submitting their bids.

The expeditiou­s conversion and resolution of assets are among the strategic directions outlined in PDIC’s Roadmap.

Proceeds from the sale of closed banks’ properties are added to the pool of liquid assets of these banks for distributi­on to uninsured depositors and other creditors in accordance with the rules on concurrenc­e and preference of credits.

The disposal of these assets increases the chances of recovery of uninsured depositors and creditors of their trapped funds.
