"The change in the taxation system, which saw a return from the value added tax system to the gross receipts system, was the biggest non-recurring item that affected the bank’s net income performance in the first half of 2004," PNB said.

                    [Summary] => The Philippine National Bank (PNB) reported total resources of P216 billion as of June 30, up eight percent from the end-2003 level of P199 billion.


The increase in assets was pushed by the expansion in customer deposits and proceeds from the issuance of Tier 2 capital, which were deployed in trading and investment securities and interbank loans.


The first semester performance proves the continued effectiveness of the rehabilitation initiatives started in mid-2002, anchored on the "Good Bank – Bad Bank" strategy, the PNB said in a statement.
