    It's not about marketing and "sinong sikat" but the balance sheet strength of the bank. You're talking of factors such as capital adequacy, loan loss reserves, non-performing loans, assets, deposit base, total loans, etc... These are things that determine if the bank manages the funds of its depositors prudently and has the clout to withstand financial pressures (crises, meet demand deposits, etc).

    At the end of the day, you do want to put your money at a Bank where you feel it won't be gone in sudden situation.

    The higher the rates, the more likely the bank will go under...like Banco Filipino and Urban bank.

    Yup, was just kidding on that . They've gone under... Lower than GMA's trust ratings before.

    On a serious note, BSP seems to be stricter with regard to regulations nowadays to ensure the more stable banks stay that way.

    di naman basehan kung madalas mabalita

    strength ng bank based on how much capital it has in relation to assets (loans)
