In Malaysia, where we have the largest distribution network, our strategy is to lead industry growth and ensure balanced growth across all key sectors. In Singapore, our long standing presence has enabled us to form strong relationships with our clients, and our service levels are consistently recognised by the industry. In Indonesia, we are encouraged by the traction that we see arising from the ongoing transformation programme, and as we expand our distribution network, we seek to grow in line with the industry. Our growth, however, will continue to be predicated on being able to grow profitably and responsibly, and to be able to conduct our activities in line with our mission of humanising financial services. MALAYSIA Malaysia remains the core domestic market for the Maybank Group, with 63.3% of Group gross loans originating from this market and contributing 69.8% of Group PBT. The domestic loan portfolio is well balanced between consumer and non-consumer segments. As at end 2012, 54% of the domestic portfolio comprised consumer loans, while corporate loans made up 32% and the remaining 14% were SME and Business Banking loans. Our leading position in the overall loans and deposits markets is supported by a sizeable domestic franchise made up of 26,473 employees, 401 branches and over 4,700 self service terminals and mobile banking services. In 2012, we achieved many milestones. We ranked first on the domestic league tables for M&As and ranked second for domestic bonds. We also retained our lead in the Islamic banking market, with Islamic loans contribution to total domestic loans up from 26.1% in 2010 to 30.6% in 2012.

  • Mabuhay Miles Travel Card – Frequently Asked Questions
    Mabuhay Miles Travel Card – Frequently Asked Questions 1. Why should I use the Mabuhay Miles Travel Card over other cards? Your Mabuhay Miles Travel Card earns 1 Mile for every Php100 (or its equivalent in foreign currency) spent. It is the only Travel Card that contains a PHP wallet so you can use it both in domestic and international transactions. It is a multi‐currency card that will allow you to spend in the supported local currency without worry of fluctuating exchange rates. By being able to spend using the local currency, it will also allow you to manage your funds better while you travel. Skip the call to your bank when converting your points to Miles. Your Miles will be credited directly to your Mabuhay Miles account, not to your Travel Card account. 2. What’s the difference between the existing Mabuhay Miles Membership Card and this new Mabuhay Miles Travel Card? For Elite, Premiere Elite or Million Miler members, your Mabuhay Miles Membership Card will 1) remain solely as a membership card and 2) will indicate your tier status and benefits. The Travel Card will function as your multi‐currency prepaid card. For Classic members, the Travel Card will serve as both the membership card and the multi‐ currency prepaid card. 3. Where can I use my Mabuhay Miles Travel Card? You can use the currencies in your Travel Card in stores worldwide that accept UnionPay. You can also use your Travel Card to withdraw cash and check your currency balance at BancNet ATMs in the Philippines and international ATMs that accept UnionPay.

  • The State of Digital Payments in the Philippines (Released in 2015) Found That Adoption Had Been Limited
    COUNTRY DIAGNOSTIC The State of Digital Payments in the Philippines DECEMBER 2019 PHILIPPINES Authors Project Leads: Keyzom Ngodup Massally, Rodrigo Mejía Ricart Technical authors: Malavika Bambawale, Swetha Totapally, and Vineet Bhandari Cover photo: © Better Than Cash Alliance/Erwin Nolido 1 FOREWORD Our country was one of the first to pioneer digital payments nearly 20 years ago. Recognizing the untapped market potential and the opportunity to foster greater access to financial inclusion, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) has worked, hand in hand, with the government and the leaders across financial, retail, and regulatory sectors to boost digital payments. Over the past three years, since the launch of the first digital payments diagnostic, the Philippines has experienced remarkable progress toward building an inclusive digital payments ecosystem. In 2013, digital payments accounted for only 1% of the country’s total transaction volume. In 2018, this follow through diagnostic study showed that the volume of digital payments increased to 10% corresponding to 20% share in the total transaction value. These numbers speak of significant progress and success. I am optimistic that e-payments will gain further momentum as we have laid the necessary building blocks to accelerate innovation and inclusive growth over the next few years. Notably, Filipino women are ahead of men in the uptake of digital payments, placing us ahead of global standards. The rise of fintech and their solutions are starting to play a transformative role, as we can see from the rapidly-growing adoption of the emerging QR codes for digital transactions. I am confident that the BSP has built a good digital foundation and is well positioned to leverage fintech in increasing the share of digital payments toward a cash- lite Philippines.

  • Chapter 1 Introduction
    CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Globally, banking system is working continuously from many years. Paper money or cash has been leading payment mechanism worldwide for the centuries. The measure works of a bank to deposits an amount of a customer and returns it to him when he needs. During deposits and withdrawal of the amount bank may use this money for itself as to given loans to other customers who wants to avail it. There are so many types of loan like home loan, agricultural loan, personnel loan, loan for industries and business houses etc. Banks give a particular interest for the depositors on his money and take a certain interest from loan account holder. There are very fast changes occur in the traditional banking operation system. Before a decade ago a bank was involved only with customers when they were at premises of bank. But during this new time a bank provides many more services to the customer’s at their doorsteps. The entire system of banking has changed drastically. In banking system there are two most frequent and important services- one is to deposit cash in the account and second to withdraw cash from the account. Both the service provided to a customer during a time in which banks are open and officials present at that time. Here in this work our main concern is about the withdrawal service provided by the bank. Banks normally provide this cash through teller counters. Only in the past century paper money or cash faced competition from mainly cheques, debit and credit cards. Previously this whole process was thoroughly manual and nowadays it is automatic.

  • BSP Digital Payments Transformation Roadmap Report
    BSP Digital Payments Transformation Roadmap 2020-2023 I. Vision and Strategic Outcomes (Targets by 2023) The BSP’s thrust to promote financial inclusion and digitalization of payments are mutually reinforcing: they go hand-in-hand, each enabling the other. As the BSP continues to foster the growth and development of digital payment innovations through enabling policies and regulations, it also promotes further financial inclusion. Digital payment innovations lower transaction costs and eliminate the oft-cited barriers to owning a transaction account. The widespread use of the internet and emergence of technological innovations make digital payments ubiquitous, more accessible and affordable, thereby propelling the progressive shift towards a cash-lite economy. Moreover, with the sudden onset of the COVID-19 global pandemic, the shift towards digital payments has become an imperative as physical distancing rules become the norm under the “New Economy” environment. By using digital payments with due care and vigilance, Filipinos reduce the need for mobility and prevent health risks from face-to-face and over-the-counter (OTC) financial transactions. The greater usage of digital payments will also facilitate the growth of Fintech businesses engaged in e-commerce businesses as the consumption of goods and services is increasingly driven by online purchases. Objective An efficient, inclusive, safe and secure digital payments ecosystem that supports the diverse needs and capabilities of individuals and firms, towards achievement of the BSP’s mandates Strategic Outcomes a. Strengthened customer preference for digital payments by: • Converting 50% of the total volume of retail payments into digital form, considering that payment services are the gateway of most Filipinos to the formal financial system.
