COMPUTATION OF PENALTIES UNDER P. D. 717
of the Manual of Regulations, as amended by Circular 236, which provides
that for non-compliance/under-compliance with the mandatory credit
allocation for agri-agra credit, “a daily fine in proportion to degree of compliance shall be imposed depending on the total assets of the banks as of reporting period”.
A sample computation of penalties to be imposed on a bank for
under-compliance/non-compliance with the requirements of the Agri-Agra
Law is illustrated below:
Illustration A:
A bank with total assets of P100 million has a degree of
compliance with the agri-agra credit allocation requirement of 45% (i.e.
only 45% of the required 25% of its loanable funds was allocated for
agri-agra purposes.Formula: Maximum Daily Fine x Degree of undercompliance x # of days with under-compliance

Illustration B:
Bank A with total assets of P100 million has a degree of
compliance with the agra credit allocation requirement of 50% and with
agri credit of 133%, while Bank B with total assets of P100 million has a
degree of compliance with the agra credit of 120% and with agri credit
of 86.17%. It is assumed that the rule on offsetting, i. e. excess
compliance in the 10% agra credit may be used to offset a deficiency, if
any, in the 15% agri-credit, but not vice-versa, was complied.
