From my perspective as a long-standing forex trader, PNB’s regulatory status offers very little in terms of direct fund protection. What stands out to me is that PNB does not have oversight from any national or international regulator, such as the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in the Philippines, or globally recognized agencies like ASIC or the FCA. In my experience, regulatory supervision is an essential layer of security—regulators can enforce operational standards, require clear segregation of client and company funds, and provide dispute resolution avenues. The absence of these mechanisms means that, for me, there are inherent risks that would make me think twice before placing significant funds with PNB for trading purposes. While PNB is a reputable and historic bank in the Philippines, this track record does not substitute for dedicated regulatory oversight, particularly in the realm of investments or trading. As a trader, I have always preferred working with brokers who are verifiably regulated because it gives me recourse if problems arise and ensures that minimum standards are met for client fund protection. Without such regulation, I would need to be extra cautious and consider alternative, independently regulated institutions if safeguarding my capital was my top priority.
