In line with providing responsive financial solutions, LANDBANK is introducing a new loan facility designed to offer accessible financial assistance specifically to pensioners and government employees.
Through the LANDBANK Pension and Emergency Relief (PeER) Loan Facility, eligible borrowers can secure loans between P20,000 to P100,000 at an affordable interest rate of 10% per annum, for emergency expenses, medical needs, and other urgent financial requirements.
"We are committed to expanding our accessible services for our diverse clientele, including extending financial relief during critical circumstances. The new PeER Loan Facility provides timely financial assistance tailored to help them in times of urgent need,” said LANDBANK President and CEO Lynette V. Ortiz.
The LANDBANK PeER Loan Facility offers two loan options: the Pension Loan, offered to qualified clients with LANDBANK pension accounts, and the Emergency Relief Loan, available to regular government employees with LANDBANK payroll accounts and at least one year of service.
Interested clients can apply for the PeER Loan at any LANDBANK branch or by contacting LANDBANK’s Customer Service Hotline at 02 8405 7000.
The PeER Loan Facility is part of LANDBANK’s continuing commitment to promote financial security and resilience, empowering clients to better manage unforeseen expenses with confidence.

LANDBANK remains financially strong, regulatory compliant
LANDBANK reaffirms its financial strength and stability, following the Bank’s P50-billion contribution to the Maharlika Investment Fund (MIF), and remains fully committed to its mandate as a reliable partner to the national government’s inclusive development agenda. The state-run Bank has consistently met and exceeded the minimum requirements of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) for Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR)—a critical benchmark of financial health—as it stays financially robust with no urgent need for additional capital. Earlier this year, LANDBANK remitted P32.119 billion in cash dividends to the National Government—the highest among all Government Owned and Controlled Corporations (GOCCs) and in the Bank’s history. This milestone reflects the Bank's sustained financial strength and ability to generate consistent revenues while fulfilling its developmental mandate. As of 30 November 2024, LANDBANK’s CAR remains at a healthy level of 16.42% which is well above the 10% regulatory threshold, further demonstrating the Bank’s resilience against financial and operational risks. Following the P50-billion seed capital allocation to the MIF in September 2023, LANDBANK’s CAR stood at 16.20%, remaining comfortably above regulatory requirements and reflecting the Bank’s commitment to financial stability. The Bank also clarified that regulatory relief was sought from the BSP as a proactive measure to maintain resilience. LANDBANK has consistently adhered to prudent financial management practices, effectively utilizing its resources to promote agriculture, fisheries and rural development, and empower key development sectors.
