In January <strong>2014</strong>, the Company entered into an investment management agreement (IMA) whereby<br />
the Company availed of the services of Security Bank relative to the management and investment<br />
of funds amounting to ₱500.0 million.<br />
Among others, following are the significant provisions of the IMA:<br />
The Investment Manager shall administer and manage the fund as allowed and subject to the<br />
requirements of the Central Bank of the Philippines and in accordance with the written investment<br />
policy and guidelines mutually agreed upon and signed by Security Bank and the Company.<br />
The agreement is considered as an agency and not a trust agreement. The Company, therefore,<br />
shall at all times retain legal title to the fund.<br />
The IMA does not guaranty a yield, return, or income on the investments or reinvestments made<br />
by the Investment Manager. Any loss or depreciation in the value of the assets of the fund shall be<br />
for the account of the Company.<br />
The Company accounts for the entire investment as a financial asset to be carried at fair value<br />
