[ EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 915, October 15, 1983 ]
TRANSFERRING THE BALANCE AND RECEIVABLES OF THE FILIPINO RETAILERS’ FUND TO THE COTTAGE INDUSTRY GUARANTEE AND LOAN FUND (CIGLF)
WHEREAS, the Filipino Retailers’ Fund (FRF) in the original amount of Twenty Million Pesos (P20,000,000.00) was created under Republic Act No. 1292 on June 15, 1955, to extend liberal credit facilities to bona fide Filipino retailers;
WHEREAS, of said Twenty Million Pesos, there remains an amount of THREE MILLION NINETY THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED THIRTY EIGHT PESOS AND 27/100 (P3,090,838.27) now deposited with the Philippine National Bank under a current account aside from receivables and collectibles from borrowers;
WHEREAS, it has been determined that it is no longer viable and economical to continue with the grant of loans to Filipino retailers and that the existing amount now on deposit with the Philippine National Bank will therefore remain dormant and unproductive unless transferred to another active subsisting fund;
WHEREAS, the Filipino Retailers’ Fund can be integrated into the Cottage Industry Guarantee and Loan Fund (CIGLF) which is owned by the National Cottage Industries Development Authority (NACIDA) and administered by the Central Bank of the Philippines;
WHEREAS, the FRF amount now on deposit with the Philippine National Bank could be best utilized to augment the CIGLF to assist cottage industry producers in the country;
NOW, THEREFORE, I, FERDINAND E. MARCOS, President of the Republic of the Philippines, by virtue of the powers vested in me by the Constitution, do hereby order the following:
SECTION 1. The Filipino Retailers’ Fund under Republic Act No. 1292 is hereby abolished, and the remaining amount of said fund in the sum of THREE MILLION NINETY THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED THIRTY EIGHT PESOS AND 27/100 (P3,090,838.27) now on deposit with the Philippine National Bank is hereby transferred to the Cottage Industry Guarantee and Loan Fund (CIGLF) owned by NACIDA and administered by the Central Bank of the Philippines.
SEC. 2. All receivables, collectibles and other such amounts which have accrued or which may hereafter accrue and be due for payment to the Filipino Retailers’ Fund shall be transferred and integrated into the CIGLF. The National Cottage Industries Development Authority, as owner of the CIGLF, shall implement all measures necessary to collect all such receivables, collectibles, and other such amounts. The Philippine National Bank shall continue to serve as the official depository bank for this purpose and shall accept payment of the monies contemplated in this Section, for the account and in the name of CIGLF.
SEC. 3. All records, papers and documents of the Filipino Retailers’ Fund shall be immediately transferred to NACIDA.
SEC. 4. The Central Bank of the Philippines, the Philippine National Bank and the National Cottage Industries Development Authority shall work out procedures to effect the fund transfers mentioned in the preceding sections of this Order.
SEC. 5. Repealing Clause. Any provision of existing laws, decrees, orders or regulations inconsistent herewith is hereby repealed or amended accordingly.
SEC. 6. Effectivity. This Order shall take effect immediately.
