Salmon Bank (Rural Bank) Inc. has selected Profinch Solutions Pte. Ltd. to automate its regulatory reporting to the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), deploying Profinch's BSP Regulatory Reporting platform. The cloud-native deployment covers the Financial Reporting Package and COCREE 2.0 as the BSP tightens reporting governance.

Two Core Deliverables

The engagement centers on two deliverables. The first is the Financial Reporting Package (FRP) and its supporting schedules, covering the bank's current submissions under FRP V15, alongside readiness for FRP V16, which the BSP has deferred to 30th June 2027 to give banks additional time to prepare their people, processes, and systems.

The second is the Comprehensive Credit and Equity Exposures Report (COCREE 2.0), the BSP's granular borrower- and counterparty-level exposure return, which carries substantially higher data volumes and validation requirements than aggregated reports.

Platform Capabilities

The platform automates business, schema, and rule-based validation. It also generates BSP-ready XML output for submission, with maker-checker workflows and exception dashboards enforcing review at every stage.

It is deployed within Salmon Bank's own Cloud infrastructure in a dedicated, isolated configuration built exclusively for the Bank, leaving Salmon Bank in full control of its infrastructure and production data at all times.

Bank and Vendor Comments

Raffy Montemayor, Deputy CEO at Salmon Bank (Rural Bank), said: "At Salmon Bank, we continue to invest in technology that strengthens operational efficiency and regulatory compliance. Working with Profinch enables us to modernize our regulatory reporting process with a structured and scalable approach that supports our compliance objectives while providing a foundation for future regulatory initiatives."

Nikhil Deshmukh, Business Head - Enterprise Apps, Asia-Pacific, Profinch, said: "Financial institutions today are looking to strengthen regulatory reporting with greater consistency, transparency, and operational efficiency while keeping pace with evolving regulatory expectations. We are pleased to partner with Salmon Bank and to support the bank with a secure, cloud-native solution that simplifies validation, strengthens governance, and enables accurate BSP-compliant XML generation."

Chaitanya Kashyap, Global Business Head – Enterprise Apps at Profinch, said: "The conversation around regulatory reporting has fundamentally shifted. It is no longer a tactical exercise of meeting the next deadline, but a strategic imperative to build systems capable of adapting to tomorrow's template changes and regulatory asks. Across Southeast Asia and our global markets, we see a growing demand for this level of architectural resilience. We are proud to provide Salmon Bank with an enterprise-grade foundation that helps future-proof their compliance operations."
