Audit Services for Non-Stock Savings and Loan Associations
We serve NSSLAs with statutory audits, BSP regulatory reporting, verification of member capital and loan accounts, and governance and controls suited to non-stock, member-based finance.
What an NSSLA audit involves
Non-stock savings and loan associations operate under the Revised Non-Stock Savings and Loan Association Act of 1997 (Republic Act No. 8367) and are supervised by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas. An NSSLA accepts savings from, and lends to, a well-defined group of members only, and its annual audit report is submitted to the BSP.
The audit covers members’ capital contributions and deposits, loans to members and the allowance for credit losses, the distribution of net income to members, and compliance with the BSP regulations that apply to the association.
