                    [Summary] => 



The Yuchengco-owned Rizal Commercial Banking Corp. (RCBC) plans to put up 15 new branches and about 70 new automated teller machines (ATMs) to further strengthen its presence in the highly-competitive banking industry.


As of end 2006, RCBC had a total of 289 branches, five extension offices, complemented by 258 ATM facilities.

RCBC said funding for the expansion will come from its proposed issuance of 250 million common shares which is still subject to the approval of regulators.
