How To Get Approved when Opening an Account in BDO

Before, in Philippine Banking it is true that Money Speaks. But with the on going implementation of the Anti Money Laundering Law the Banco De Oro may require additional documents from the above requirements before giving you an account. These documents of course will prove that the money they will be saving in their bank is clean.

Unemployed applicants need not to worry as well as long as you can maintain the Minimum Account Deposit Balance or MADB. Specially if you will just be opening a Savings account. Again once you started filling your Bank account with more money BDO may then require additional requirements.

What you need to be wary though is that you don’t have any existing loan on other banking institution as they have a centralized system to figure this out. Specially if you will request a credit card associated to your BDO account.

I would like to highlight to you readers that it is still better if you go to the nearest BDO branch and talk to them directly in your banking needs. This guide was created to give you the basics of Opening an Account with BDO. But when it comes to approval, It is depends on the situation you are in.
