Business and Consumers Bank (338.67 million, No. 45 in Sep 2018 ranking, why not in Dec 2019 ranking?)
Luzon Development Bank (No. 19 as of Dec 2019, but why not in Sep 2018 ranking below?)
Overseas Filipino Bank (OFBank) decreased in assets from 9.675 billion in Sep 2018 to 5.369 billion in Dec 2019. Bakit kaya? Nasaan yong 4.306 billion?
