OFFICE OF THE DEPUTY GOVERNOR I FINANCIAL SUPERVISION SECTOR MEMORANDUM NO. M-2026-__ To : All Non-Stock Savings and Loans Associations and Trust Corporations Subject : Collection of the Annual Supervision Fees for the Year 2026

In accordance with Section 28 of the Republic Act (R.A.) No. 7653, “The New Central Bank Act”, as amended by R.A. No. 11211, the following guidelines shall govern the computation and collection by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) and the payment by Non-Stock Savings and Loans Associations (NSSLAs) and Trust Corporations (TCs) of the 2026 Annual Supervision Fees (ASF).

  1. Computation of ASF for 2026 NSSLAs The prescribed rate for the ASF is 1/65 of 1% of its Average Assessable Assets (AAA)1 of the immediately preceding year or the maximum amount of ASF per AAA range, whichever is lower, but shall not exceed the maximum amount provided below: Total AAA of NSSLAs Maximum Amount of Annual Supervision Fees

P1.0 billion P500,000.00 P750.0 million - P1.0 billion P400,000.00 P500.0 million - P750.0 million P200,000.00 P250.0 million - P500.0 million P100,000.00 P100.0 million - P250.0 million P 50,000.00 Up to P100.0 million P 10,000.00 Provided, that the minimum amount of annual fees of NSSLAs with AAA of up to P100.0 million shall be P10,000.00. TCs The prescribed rate for the ASF is 0.01% of the average monthly balance of assets under management (AUM)2 for the first three (3) years of the trust corporation’s operations and 0.02% of the average monthly balance of AUM on the 4th year and onwards. Securities held under custodianship shall be exempt from annual fees. 1 AAA shall be the summation of end-of-quarter total assessable assets (end-of-quarter total assets per balance sheet, after deducting cash on hand and amounts due from banks) divided by the number of quarters in operation during the particular assessment period. 2 All funds, properties and securities, denominated in peso and other foreign currency, which the TC, acting as trustee, fiduciary and agent, shall manage, administer, hold, and/or take custody, for the use and/or benefit of persons other than the TC.

Page 2 of 2 The AAA of the preceding year/average monthly balance of AUM is derived from the reports3 submitted by the NSSLA/TC to the BSP in compliance with the standards and requirements prescribed under existing regulations. In case of a merger or consolidation, the assets or AUM, as applicable, of the entities prior to the event, as well as those of the surviving or newly formed entity, shall be considered in determining the AAA. A sample computation to illustrate this scenario is provided in Annex A. 2. Notification of Amount Due for 2026 and Mode of Payment The BSP Department of Supervisory Analytics (DSA) shall send a billing notice in April 2026 to the NSSLA/TC for its ASF payment indicating, among others, the computation of the ASF due, the period covered by the ASF, mode of payment, and the specific date when the ASF becomes payable to the BSP. 3. Exceptions Noted on Billing Notice of 2026 ASF An NSSLA/TC is encouraged to check the accuracy of the billing and to submit any of the noted exceptions therein not later than ten (10) working days from receipt of the BSP ASF billing notice. The said exceptions, together with supporting documents, shall be e-mailed to dsa-srog@bsp.gov.ph using the following prescribed subject format - ASF 2026 -Noted Exceptions<space><BSFI Name> For Example, To : dsa-srog@bsp.gov.ph Subject : ASF 2026-Noted Exceptions ABC SLAI Any exceptions received after the cut-off date, or any exceptions not duly substantiated with documents before the cut-off date will be evaluated and considered in the computation of the ASF for the immediately succeeding year.
