CITIZEN’S CHARTER 2022, 1ST EDITION

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION


`

Mandate:
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) or the Commission is the national government regulatory agency charged with supervision over the
corporate sector, the capital market participants, and the securities and investment instruments market, and the protection of the investing public.
Created on October 26, 1936 by Commonwealth Act (CA) 83 also known as The Securities Act, the Commission was tasked to regulate the sale and
registration of securities, exchanges, brokers, dealers and salesmen. Subsequent laws were enacted to encourage investments and more active
public participation in the affairs of
private corporations and enterprises, and to broaden the Commission’s mandates. Recently enacted laws gave greater focus on the Commission’s
role to develop and regulate the corporate and capital market toward good corporate governance, protection of investors, widest participation of
ownership and democratization of wealth.

SEC is the registrar and overseer of the Philippine corporate sector; it supervises more than 600,000 active corporations and evaluates the financial
statements (FS) filed by all corporations registered with it. SEC also develops and regulates the capital market, a crucial component of the
Philippine financial system and economy. As it carries out its mandate, SEC contributes significantly to government revenues.

With the growing number of corporations and other forms of associations that SEC supervises and monitors, and given the evolving nature of
transactions where the corporate vehicle is being used to defraud the investing public, as well as the ever dynamic character of the capital market,
SEC must progressively perform its critical role as the prudent registrar and supervisor of the corporate sector and the independent guardian of the
capital market.

Subsequent laws enacted to broaden the Commission's mandates, powers, and functions were:

• The SEC Reorganization Act or Presidential Decree (PD) 902-A in 1976, as subsequently amended by PDs 1653, 1758 and 1799 reorganized
the Commission to give it ample powers to protect the public and their investments. Under the Act, the Commission was reorganized into a
collegial body; and was given additional powers and functions, including quasi-judicial powers over intra-corporate disputes as well as
absolute jurisdiction, supervision and control over all corporations, partnerships or associations that are the grantees of primary franchise
and/or a license or permit issued by the government to operate in the Philippines.

• The Corporation Code of the Philippines (CCP) or the Batas Pambansa (BP) 68 in 1980 gave SEC the mandate to register corporations,
collect fees from registering corporations, and prescribe reportorial requirements. Along with the granting of authority to register
corporations, it empowered SEC to reject articles of incorporation or disapprove any amendment thereto if the same is not in compliance
with the requirements of BP 68. The Code also required all registered corporations to submit to SEC an annual report of its operations,
`

together with a financial statement of assets and liabilities, certified by an independent certified public accountant (CPA) in appropriate
cases, and such other requirements as SEC may require within the prescribed period. Likewise, it authorized SEC to promulgate rules and
regulations reasonably necessary to enable it to perform its duties particularly in the prevention of fraud and abuses on the part of the
controlling stockholders, members, directors, and trustees or officers of corporations.

• The Revised Corporation Code (RCC) or RA 11232, signed into law by President Rodrigo R. Duterte on 20 February 2019 and took effect on
23 February 2019, amended the almost four-decade-old BP 68 and forms part of the present administration's legislative priorities. It aligns
with the 10-point socio-economic agenda of the President, specifically in increasing the Philippine economy's competitiveness and improving the ease of
doing business in the country.

The RCC aims for a more competitive corporate sector, as it adopts international best practices and standards tailored to address the needs
and realities of the Philippine corporate setting, and introduces new concepts and mechanisms to help the Philippines keep up with the
changing times. Among the notable amendments to the Corporation Code is the grant of a perpetual corporation term for existing and future
corporations unless provided in their articles of incorporation. The RCC also allows the formation of one-person corporation, a corporation
with a single stockholder and without a minimum authorized capital stock required. Another salient feature of the RCC is the provision for an
emergency board when a vacancy in a corporation’s board of directors prevents the remaining directors from constituting a quorum and
consequently from making emergency actions required to prevent grave, substantial and irreplaceable loss or damage.

The RCC also allows corporations to adopt alternative dispute resolution mechanisms for intra-corporate issues except those involving
criminal offenses and interests of third parties. As part of efforts to improve ease of doing business in the country, the RCC mandated the
Commission to develop and implement an electronic filing and monitoring system. The SEC is mandated to promulgate rules to facilitate and
expedite, among others, corporate name reservation and registration, incorporation, submission of reports, notices, documents required
under the Code, and sharing of pertinent information with other government agencies. To ensure optimal stockholder participation,
meanwhile, the RCC will allow the use of remote communication such as videoconferencing and teleconferencing during stockholder
meetings. Stockholders may also participate and vote in absentia.

• The Revised Securities Act or BP 178 in 1982 repealed CA 83 in its entirety to give way to a new statute that would enable the SEC to keep
pace with new and more complex securities instruments, trading vehicles and strategies. BP 178 provided, among others, for a more
sophisticated disclosure mechanism of securities to be offered to investors.

• The Securities Regulation Code (SRC) or Republic Act (RA) 8799 in 2000 provided for the SEC reorganization to give greater focus on the
Commission’s role in capital market development, fostering good corporate governance (CG) and enhancing investor protection. The SRC also
provided for the transfer of the Commission’s jurisdiction over all cases enumerated under Section 5 of PD 902-A to the Courts of general
`

jurisdiction or the appropriate Regional Trial Court. The SRC also defined in clear terms fraud and criminal offenses related to securities
transactions, and strengthened SEC regulatory functions over all entities dealing in securities such as Self-Regulatory Organizations (SROs) or
the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE), Philippine Dealing and Exchange Corporation (PDEx) and Capital Market Integrity Corporation; as well as
market professionals such as brokers and dealers, among others.

The SRC restated the requirements for the submission of an annual report by companies of their operations, together with FS, certified by an
independent CPA, and such other requirements as SEC may deem necessary. It also included provisions on internal record keeping and
accounting controls to be complied with by companies. The SRC Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR), the latest amendment of which
is known as the 2015 SRC Rules, took effect on November 9, 2015.
Section 68 of the SRC on special accounting rules reinforced the power of SEC to make, amend and rescind such accounting rules and
regulations as may be necessary to carry out the provisions of the SRC and those of the CCP relative to financial reporting. It also includes
rules and regulations governing registration statements and prospectuses for various classes of securities and issuers, and defining
accounting, technical and trade terms used; the power to prescribe the form or details to be shown in the FS, and the methods to be followed
in the preparation of accounts, appraisal or valuation of assets and liabilities, and other financial statement items, among others.

In line with this, Rule 68, the Special Accounting Rules was issued in 2001 as part of the SRC IRR. Rule 68 specifically provides for the
general guides to FS preparation, responsibility to FS, qualifications and reports of independent auditors, additional requirements for
independent auditors of SEC- regulated entities and other entities, independence of auditors, engagement of independent auditors, audit
reports, including the accreditation of independent auditors as well as review of their quality assurance processes. Rule 68 has undergone
several amendments, the latest of which was in 2011; and is presently in the process of amendments to ensure reliability of the FS and the
protection of investors. Financial Reporting Bulletins (FRBs) are also issued by the Commission as needed to cover additional Financial
Reporting Requirements.

• Credit Information System Act (CISA) or RA 9510 in 2008 mandated the SEC to be the lead government agency to implement and enforce the
said Act. It designated the Chairman of the SEC to be the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Credit Information Corporation (CIC),
whose primary purpose is to receive and consolidate basic credit data; to act as a central registry or central repository of credit information;
and, to provide access to reliable, standardized information on credit history and financial condition of borrowers.

• Microfinance Nongovernment Organizations (NGOs) Act or RA 10693 in 2015 mandated SEC to establish an accrediting body to be known
as the Microfinance NGO Regulatory Council which shall, among others, institute and operationalize a system of accreditation for
Microfinance NGOs; issue certificate of accreditation as a Microfinance NGO upon determination that the criteria set for this purpose have
been fully satisfied; and, monitor the performance of Microfinance NGOs to ensure continuing compliance with the provisions of the Act
`

and its IRR. The Chairman of SEC or designated representative shall serve as the Chairperson of the Council; and the Council shall be
assisted by a secretariat to be lodged in the SEC, which shall coordinate the activities involved in the accreditation process.

Today, SEC is tasked with “serious responsibility of enforcing all laws affecting corporations and other forms of associations not
otherwise vested in some other government offices.” In addition to the aforementioned laws, the Commission also implements and acts
either as lead or support agency in administering and enforcing special laws, the more significant of which are:

1. Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2001 (RA 10365), as amended


2. Lending Company Regulation Act (LCRA) of 2007 (RA 9474)
3. Financing Company Act (FCA) (RA 8556), as amended
4. Investment Company Act (RA 2629), as amended, and its IRR
5. Investment Houses Law (PD 129)
6. Retail Trade Liberalization Act of 2000 (RA 8762)
7. Foreign Investments Act of 1991 (RA 7402), as amended
8. Omnibus Investments Code of 1987 (E.O. 226, Book III)
9. Anti-Dummy Law (Commonwealth Act 108), as amended
10. Civil Code of the Philippines (RA 386, Title IX - Partnership)
11. Securitization Act of 2004 (RA 9267)

13. Personal Equity and Retirement Account Act of 2008 (RA 9505)

Classification: Highly Technical within the context of Section 5 of the Securities Regulation Code, 2015 Implementing Rules and Regulations of the
Securities Regulation Code, Section 179 of the Revised Corporation Code, and SEC 2016 Rules of Procedure

Historically, Section 3 of Republic Act (RA) No. 9485 (“Anti-Red Tape Act of 2007”) states that those performing judicial, quasi-judicial and
legislative functions are excluded from its coverage. When RA No. 9485 was amended by RA No. 11032 (“Ease of Doing Business and
Efficient Government Service Delivery Act of 2018”), quasi-judicial function is still deemed excluded because Section 3 of the latter Act
provides that it shall apply to all government offices that provide services covering business and nonbusiness related transactions as
defined in said Act.

“Government Service” is defined in Section 4 of RA No. 11032 as the process or transaction between applicants or requesting parties and
government offices or agencies involving applications for any privilege, right, reward, license, clearance, permit or authorization, concession,
or for any modification, renewal or extension of the enumerated applications or requests which are acted upon in the ordinary course of
business of the agency or office concerned.

Relatively, pertinent provisions under Title XVI of the Revised Corporation Code are quoted as follows:

“Sec. 154. Investigations and Prosecution of Offenses. – The Commission may investigate an alleged violation of this Code, or of a rule,
regulation, or order of the Commission.

xxx xxx xxx

Sec. 156. Cease and Desist Orders. – Whenever the Commission has reasonable basis to believe that a person has violated, or is about to
violate, this Code, a rule, regulation, or order of the Commission, it may direct such person to desist from committing the act constituting the
violation.

xxx xxx xxx

Sec. 158. Administrative Sanctions. – If, after due notice and hearing, the Commission finds that any provision of this Code, rules or
regulations, or any of the Commission’s orders has been violated, the Commission may impose any or all of the following sanctions, taking
into consideration the extent of participation, nature, effects, frequency and seriousness of the violation:

2
xxx xxx xxx.”

Under Sec. 5(l) of the Securities Regulation Code, the Commission has also the power to issue subpoena duces tecum and summon witnesses
to appear in any proceedings of the Commission and in appropriate cases, order the examination, search and seizure of all documents,
papers, files and records, tax returns, and books of accounts of any entity or person under investigation as may be necessary for the proper
disposition of the cases before it, subject to the provisions of existing laws.

Based on the foregoing provisions, the SEC has inherent quasi-judicial power which authorizes it to hear and decide cases in the
performance of its duty and enforce its decisions in accordance with law.

It must be noted that administrative adjudication, or the authority to hear and decide cases pursuant to the laws implemented by an
administrative agency, DOES NOT involve approval of applications for any privilege, right, reward, license, clearance, permit or
authorization, concession, or for any modification, renewal or extension of the enumerated applications or requests. As such, administrative
adjudication DOES NOT fall within the ambit of Section 3 of RA No. 11032 because it is not the “Government Service” contemplated in
Section 4 thereof and is therefore, not subject to the prescribed processing times for Government Services under Section 9 of the same Act.
We note that Section 9 of RA No. 11032 is entitled “Accessing Government Services”, which clearly applies to “Government Service” as
defined in Section 4 thereof (i.e. applications for any privilege, right, reward, license, clearance, etc.).

This service details the procedure on how a citizen can file a Request for Legal Opinion.

Office or Division: Office of the General Counsel (OGC)


Classification: Highly Technical within the context of Section 5 of the Securities Regulation Code, 2015 Implementing Rules and Regulations of the
Securities Regulation Code, Section 179 of the Revised Corporation Code, Supreme Court Ruling on Gamboa vs. Teves (G.R. No. 176579,
9 October 2012), and SEC Memorandum Circular No. 15, s.2003.

Section 3 of Republic Act (RA) No. 11032 (“Ease of Doing Business and Efficient Government Service Delivery Act of 2018”) provides
that said Act shall apply to all government offices that provide services covering business and nonbusiness related transactions as
defined in said Act. “Government Service” is defined by Section 4 of RA No. 11032 as the process or transaction between applicants or
requesting parties and government offices or agencies involving applications for any privilege, right, reward, license, clearance, permit
or authorization, concession, or for any modification, renewal or extension of the enumerated applications or requests which are acted
upon in the ordinary course of business of the agency or office concerned.

It must be noted that the issuance of a Legal Opinion, which is a mere interpretation of the law and is neither conclusive nor controlling
(Gamboa v. Teves, ibid), DOES NOT involve approval of applications for any privilege, right, reward, license, clearance, permit or
authorization, concession, or for any modification, renewal or extension of the enumerated applications or requests. As such, issuance
of a Legal Opinion DOES NOT fall within the ambit of Section 3 of RA No. 11032 because it is not the “Government Service”
contemplated in Section 4 thereof and is therefore, not subject to the prescribed processing times for Government Services under
Section 9 of the same Act. We note that Section 9 of RA No. 11032 is entitled “Accessing Government Services”, which clearly applies to
“Government Service” as defined in Section 4 thereof (i.e. applications for any privilege, right, reward, license, clearance, etc.).

Office or Division: Office of the General Counsel
Classification: Highly Technical within the context of Section 5 of the Securities Regulation Code, 2015 Implementing Rules and Regulations of the
Securities Regulation Code, Section 179 of the Revised Corporation Code, and SEC 2016 Rules of Procedure.

Historically, Section 3 of Republic Act (RA) No. 9485 states that those performing judicial, quasi-judicial and legislative functions are
excluded from the coverage of the said Act, also known as the Anti-Red Tape Act of 2007. When RA No. 9485 was amended by RA No.
11032, quasi-judicial function is still deemed excluded because Section 3 of the latter Act provides that it shall apply to all government
offices that provide services covering business and nonbusiness related transactions as defined in said Act. “Government Service” is
defined by Section 4 of RA No. 11032 as the process or transaction between applicants or requesting parties and government offices or
agencies involving applications for any privilege, right, reward, license, clearance, permit or authorization, concession, or for any
modification, renewal or extension of the enumerated applications or requests which are acted upon in the ordinary course of business
of the agency or office concerned.

Relatively, pertinent provisions under Title XVI of the Revised Corporation Code are quoted as follows:

“Sec. 154. Investigations and Prosecution of Offenses. – The Commission may investigate an alleged violation of this Code, or of a rule,
regulation, or order of the Commission.

xxx xxx xxx

Sec. 156. Cease and Desist Orders. – Whenever the Commission has reasonable basis to believe that a person has violated, or is about to
violate, this Code, a rule, regulation, or order of the Commission, it may direct such person to desist from committing the act
constituting the violation.

xxx xxx xxx

Sec. 158. Administrative Sanctions. – If, after due notice and hearing, the Commission finds that any provision of this Code, rules or
regulations, or any of the Commission’s orders has been violated, the Commission may impose any or all of the following sanctions,
taking into consideration the extent of participation, nature, effects, frequency and seriousness of the violation:

xxx xxx xxx.”

22
Under Sec. 5(l) of the Securities Regulation Code, the Commission has also the power to issue subpoena duces tecum and summon
witnesses to appear in any proceedings of the Commission and in appropriate cases, order the examination, search and seizure of all
documents, papers, files and records, tax returns, and books of accounts of any entity or person under investigation as may be
necessary for the proper disposition of the cases before it, subject to the provisions of existing laws.

Based on the foregoing provisions, the SEC has inherent quasi-judicial power which authorizes it to hear and decide cases in the
performance of its duty and enforce its decisions in accordance with law.

It must be noted that administrative adjudication, or the authority to hear and decide cases pursuant to the laws implemented by an
administrative agency, DOES NOT involve approval of applications for any privilege, right, reward, license, clearance, permit or
authorization, concession, or for any modification, renewal or extension of the enumerated applications or requests. As such,
administrative adjudication does not fall within the ambit of Section 3 of RA No. 11032 because it is not the “Government Service”
contemplated in Section 4 thereof and is therefore, not subject to the prescribed processing times for Government Services under
Section 9 of the same Act. We note that Section 9 of RA No. 11032 is entitled “Accessing Government Services”, which clearly applies to
“Government Service” as defined in Section 4 thereof (i..e applications for any privilege, right, reward, license, clearance, etc.).

8. Filing of Request for Legal Opinion
Office or Division: Office of the General Counsel
Classification: Highly Technical within the context of Section 5 of the Securities Regulation Code, 2015 Implementing Rules and Regulations of the
Securities Regulation Code, Section 179 of the Revised Corporation Code, Supreme Court Ruling on Gamboa vs. Teves (G.R. No. 176579,
9 October 2012), and SEC Memorandum Circular No. 15, s.2003.

Section 3 of Republic Act (RA) No. 11032 (“Ease of Doing Business and Efficient Government Service Delivery Act of 2018”) provides
that said Act shall apply to all government offices that provide services covering business and nonbusiness related transactions as
defined in said Act. “Government Service” is defined by Section 4 of RA No. 11032 as the process or transaction between applicants or
requesting parties and government offices or agencies involving applications for any privilege, right, reward, license, clearance, permit
or authorization, concession, or for any modification, renewal or extension of the enumerated applications or requests which are acted
upon in the ordinary course of business of the agency or office concerned.

It must be noted that the issuance of a Legal Opinion, which is a mere interpretation of the law and is neither conclusive nor controlling
(Gamboa v. Teves, ibid), DOES NOT involve approval of applications for any privilege, right, reward, license, clearance, permit or
authorization, concession, or for any modification, renewal or extension of the enumerated applications or requests. As such, issuance
of a Legal Opinion DOES NOT fall within the ambit of Section 3 of RA No. 11032 because it is not the “Government Service”
contemplated in Section 4 thereof and is therefore, not subject to the prescribed processing times for Government Services under
Section 9 of the same Act. We note that Section 9 of RA No. 11032 is entitled “Accessing Government Services”, which clearly applies to
“Government Service” as defined in Section 4 thereof (i.e. applications for any privilege, right, reward, license, clearance, etc.).

Phase 2-7B: Equities Securities Salesmen (ESS)
