BDO completes Php 60-B stocks right offer
By Joann Santiago

MANILA, Jan. 26 (PNA) -- Sy-led Banco de Oro Unibank Inc. (BDO) on Thursday announced the completion of its Php 60-billion (USD 1.2 billion) stock right offering, which closed Jan. 24.

In a statement, the bank said the transaction was so far the largest for a Philippine company.

The offer was oversubscribed from both the domestic and international investors, it said without elaborating.

Listing of some 716,402,886 shares at the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) is scheduled on Jan. 31, 2017 at an expected price of about Php 83.75 apiece.

Credit Suisse, UBS, and BDO Capital served as joint global coordinators and joined by Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, and HSBC as joint bookrunners. BDO Capital served as issue manager and domestic underwriter.

BDO said the latest exercise strengthened the bank’s Common Equity Tier (CET) 1 capital “and supports the bank’s medium-term growth objectives amid the country’s favorable macroeconomic prospects.”

”Additionally, this provides a comfortable buffer over higher capital requirements with the imposition of the Domestic Systemically Important Bank (DSIB) surcharge,” it said.

The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), in July 2015, said it has identified DSIBs, which are described as "banks whose distress or disorderly failure would cause significant disruptions to the wider financial system and economy."

Because of their systemic importance these financial institutions are now required to maintain additional CET1 of between 150-250 basis points of their respective Risk-Weighted Assets starting 2017 and should be fully-compliant with the new capital requirement by 2019.(PNA)

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
