[Title] => Plantersbank gets PRS A rating for P1-B notes issue
[Summary] => Local credit rating agency Philippine Rating Services Corp. has assigned a PRS A rating on Planters Development Bank’s P1-billion unsecured subordinated notes.

"Factors giving security to principal and interest are considered adequate, but elements may be present which suggest a susceptibility to impairment some time in the future," Philratings said.

[Title] => Development banking revisited
[Summary] => The Philippine economy depends heavily on small- and medium-sized enterprises, which account for some 90% of all businesses, contribute about 25% to the gross national product and provide jobs to over half of the total labor force.
Yet, important as they are, time was when SMEs did not readily have access to formal credit. Because they were considered very risky, costly and difficult to handle, most banks avoided lending to them.
