Dear Members and Partners,
Greetings from the Microfinance Council of the Philippines, Inc. (MCPI)!
As a follow-up to the Corporate Governance and Risk Management Workshops conducted in 2017 and 2018, MCPI will conduct an Orientation on the Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws, and Manual on Good Governance Manual for Microfinance NGOs on December 6, 2018. Venue of the orientation is at the ASA Philippines Office, 15th Floor, Prestige Tower, F. Ortigas Jr. Road, Ortigas Center, Pasig City.
The orientation introduces microfinance NGOs to the governance templates developed by the Microfinance NGO Regulatory Council (MNRC). It also aims to guide MF NGOs to appropriately integrate the templates in their respective institutions and familiarize them with the policies, guidelines and procedures in the issuance of Tax Identification Number (TIN) of clients. The one-day orientation is being conducted in preparation for compliance of MF NGOs with the MNRC’s accreditation requirements in 2019 for taxable year 2018.
Attached are the orientation and registration details. Deadline for submission of the registration form is on November 29, 2018. For questions, you may reach MCPI’s Roniel Cupido at (02) 631-6184 or through e-mail at .
