(Photo courtesy of Davao del Sur PIO) DAVAO DEL SUR – The Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK) is extending a P700-million loan to the Provincial Government of Davao del Sur to finance the province’s development projects in health, tourism, infrastructure, and digitalization. The Provincial Government and LANDBANK recently signed a loan agreement to formalize the partnership. It was led by Governor Yvonne Roña Cagas and LANDBANK Senior Vice President Charlotte I. Conde, and witnessed by other local and Bank officials. “LANDBANK is working closely with Davao del Sur and other local government partners nationwide for the rollout of meaningful projects to promote economic activities. Our support to local communities will further drive our broader thrust of serving the nation in support of the National Government’s inclusive development agenda,” said LANDBANK President and CEO Lynette V. Ortiz. Of the total loan amount, P215 million will be allocated to upgrade the Davao del Sur Provincial Hospital (DSPH), including the acquisition of various medical, dental and hospital laboratory equipment for enhanced delivery of healthcare services. The planned expansion and improvements will effectively upgrade the DSPH from a Level II to a Level III Tertiary hospital, with an increased bed capacity of 200 and a three-story building dedicated as a birthing facility. Complementing the Provincial Government’s bid for enhanced healthcare services is the establishment of a Bio-Medical Waste Management System to be funded through P40 million from the approved loan. The system will be designed to comply with the strictest environmental and bacteriological reduction standards. Meanwhile, some P220 million will also finance the completion of the Gov. Douglas Ra. Cagas Sports Complex and Business Center in Digos City. The project includes the construction of a rubberized track and field oval, basketball, volleyball, and badminton courts, and improvement of the existing grandstand, among others. Another P125 million will be allocated to purchase brand-new heavy equipment and service vehicles, to be used in the maintenance and rehabilitation of roads, bridges and other infrastructure projects across the province for improved mobility of people and agricultural produce. The remaining P100 million will be dedicated to the establishment of the Revenue Administration and Management System with Integrated Financial Management Information System, aimed to automate the Provincial Government’s transactions and services. The system is also expected to further advance the local government’s efforts in the delivery of efficient public service while promoting transparency and accountability. LANDBANK continues to extend necessary credit assistance to local government units (LGUs) to spur inclusive and sustainable economic development. As of end-April 2023, the state-run Bank’s outstanding loans to LGUs nationwide hit P95.12 billion.

Estrella III (8th from right) and other DAR officials, together with LANDBANK President and CEO Lynette V. Ortiz (3rd from right), Executive Vice President Alex A. Lorayes (4th from right), and Vice President Atty. Marife Lynn O. Pascua (2nd from right) witnessing the event. (photo courtesy of DAR). The Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK) ensures that it will be working closely with government partners for the seamless and immediate implementation of the new law that frees agrarian reform beneficiaries (ARBs) nationwide from agrarian debts, in line with efforts to boost and modernize the agriculture sector. The National Government is writing-off land amortizations managed by LANDBANK amounting to P57.74 billion as of 30 June 2023—effectively relieving over 649,000 ARBs tilling 1.17 million hectares of land debt. The condonation is part of the landmark Republic Act No. 11953 or the New Agrarian Emancipation Act signed by Philippine President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. on 7 July 2023. Of the P57.74 billion, the National Government will condone outright P14.56 billion in principal loans of over 263,000 ARBs upon the effectivity of the law. The Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR), in coordination with LANDBANK, will also expedite the processing of the remaining P43.17 billion principal loans of over 385,000 ARBs. “We are proud to be part of this landmark initiative of the Marcos Administration to free farmers from debt and help them start anew. LANDBANK will likewise continue to pour investments and extend support initiatives for farmers nationwide to boost their productivity and income,” said LANDBANK President and CEO Lynette V. Ortiz. The New Agrarian Emancipation Act condones all loans, including interests, penalties, and surcharges incurred by ARBs from land awarded to them under Presidential Decree 27 (Tenant Emancipation Decree issued in 1972), Republic Act No. 6657 (Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Law of 1988), and Republic Act No. 9700 (An Act strengthening the CARP and extending the acquisition and distribution of agricultural lands, issued in 2009). The DAR will issue the implementing rules and regulations of the new law, in coordination with the Presidential Agrarian Reform Council Executive Committee (PARC ExCom) and with the technical expertise of LANDBANK, within 60 days from the issuance of the Act. For his part, Agrarian Reform Secretary and LANDBANK Board Member Conrado M. Estrella III lauded Congress for the immediate passage of the law, and expressed gratitude to LANDBANK for its consistent support to ARBs over the years. “Nagpapasalamat din po kami sa mga taga-LANDBANK sapagkat sila po ay very active na nagbibigay po ng credit assistance sa ating mga ARBs,” he said. LANDBANK has extended P2.7 billion in loans to 2,356 individual ARBs and 469 ARB cooperatives and farmers’ associations nationwide. Apart from credit assistance, LANDBANK also provides financial literacy and capability-building seminars to make sure borrowers are equipped with basic financial knowledge to manage their finances and boost their income.
READ MOREIn line with providing accessible and convenient digital services, the Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK) has doubled the daily aggregate amount limit of fund transfers via InstaPay from P50,000.00 to P100,000.00, effective 14 July 2023. LANDBANK clients can transfer up to P50,000.00 per transaction via Instapay, and now as much as P100,000.00 in total per day. The state-run Bank recently reduced its transaction rate for fund transfer via InstaPay from P25 to P15 starting from 15 June 2023. “We continue to extend the limits of our digital banking solutions to meet the growing needs of our diverse client base. LANDBANK is driven to promote greater digital adoption to help accelerate financial inclusion in the country and build a cashless society,” said LANDBANK President and CEO Lynette V. Ortiz. The Bank also removed the daily transaction limit for both fund transfer and bills payment, allowing customers to perform an unlimited number of transactions per day. The previous daily aggregate amount limit of P50,000.00 for bills payment facilitated through the LANDBANK iAccess has likewise been removed. LANDBANK is currently working on providing depositors the ability to set their own fund transfer and bills payment limits for added flexibility and convenience. Meanwhile, inter-bank fund transfers using LANDBANK and Overseas Filipino Bank (OFBank) accounts remain free of charge. The new fund transfer and bills payment policies apply to transactions facilitated via LANDBANK’s retail digital banking channels, the LANDBANK Mobile Banking App (MBA) and iAccess. For the first five months of 2023, the two digital platforms have facilitated a combined 66.7 million transactions with value of P123.4 billion
