Ano ang Maintaining Balance sa Bank Account?
Bakit meron tayong bawas na 200 o 300 pesos na penalty for NOT maintaining the Minimum Monthly Average Daily Balance for 2 consecutive months? (o dalawang magkasunod na buwan?)
Ano ba itong Minimum Monthly Average Daily Balance or Minimum MADB? or yong sinasabi nilang Maintaining Balance?
Ang Maintaining Balance ay yong pinakamababang balance na dapat nasa savings account o checking account natin araw-araw para hindi tayo mabawasan ng penalty. Merong penalty... kasi gusto ng bank na merong enough na pera sa bank account natin at nang sa ganon ay meron silang pakinabang sa pag-handle ng bank account natin.
Ang pag-check ng bank kung below maintaining balance ang account natin ay hindi everyday kundi every month. Kino-compute nila ang average ng 30 or 31 daily balances sa loob ng isang buwan, kaya tinawag na Monthly Average Daily Balance.
Example: Ang savings account ko ay merong balance na 2,000 pesos. Ang required Maintaining Balance o Minimum MADB ng savings account na ito ay 2,000 pesos. Winidrohan ko ng 500 pesos, at 1,500 na lang ang naiwan -- mababawasan ba ang account ko ng 200 o 300 pesos na penalty?
Puedeng Yes, puedeng No.
Kung mapabayaan na 1,500 pesos lang ang balance ng account ng 2 months, mababawasan ang account ng 200 o 300 pesos na penalty sa end of the 2nd month.
Pero, kung madepositohan uli ang account para maging 2,000 pesos ang resulta ng pag-compute ng average daily balance at the end of the month, walang penalty.
Halimbawa sa 30 days of the month, merong:
5 days na 2k ang balance
20 days na 1k ang balance
5 days na 3k ang balance
5 days x 2k = 10k
20 days x 1k = 20k
5 days x 3k = 15k
10k plus 20k plus 15k = 45k
45k divided by 30 days = 1,500 pesos
Ang monthly average daily balance ng account is 1,500 pesos. Ito ay below the minimum MADB na 2k. Kung sa susunod na buwan ay ganito pa rin na below the minimum MADB, mababawasan na ng penalty.
Halimbawa namang ganito:
5 days na 2k ang balance = 10k
10 days na 1k ang balance = 15k
16 days na 3k ang balance = 48k
10k plus 15k plus 48k = 73k
73k divided by 31 days = 2,354.84
Ang MADB ng account is 2,354.84. Ito ay above the required maintaining balance na 2k, so okay itong account. Na-maintain ang required Minimum Monthly Average Daily Balance.

i have a newly opened bpi atm direct account for 15 days now i think, the maintaining balance is 3k, im planning to withraw 1k tomorrow and deposit more than 1k by 2-3 days. will i incure any penalty? thanks.
Hi Anonymous, not yet. You'll incur a penalty at the end of the 2nd consecutive month you fall below the maintaining balance requirement. 3k is the maintaining balance? And you had 3k in your account for the past 15 days? So that means you're ok for Feb since your account is newly opened. Yes, maintain more than 3k after you withdraw 1k so that on March 31, the average daily balance would be 3k or higher. You try adding the daily balances and then divide by the no. of days.
thanks for that Nors very informative. i have another question, do the counting of days start regulary on a monthly basis or does it start on the day my account was activated?
Hi Anonymous, bank systems check maintaining balances immediately after every 30th or 31st. They check daily balances from the first day of the month to the last day of the month. The penalty is imposed immediately after the 2nd consecutive month that you fall below the maintaining balance requirement.
hi. I opened my passbook account noong Jan. 18, 2013. Currently (March 11, 2013) ang balance ko ay P10k. ang maintaining balance requirement ay 1k. ma-pepenaltyhan ba ako kasi hindi ako nakadeposit since last Feb. 18? or ano ang suggested na amount ko na i.dedeposit para di ako ma-penaltyhan? thanks.
