Credit Reference Letters are essential financial documents in the Philippine banking system, used to establish creditworthiness and financial reliability in various business and personal transactions. These letters are issued by banks or financial institutions under the regulatory framework of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) and must comply with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and the Bank Secrecy Law. A Credit Reference Letter typically includes information about the duration of the banking relationship, account standing, and general credit behavior, while carefully maintaining compliance with privacy regulations. They are commonly requested for visa applications, business partnerships, rental agreements, loan applications, or international trade relationships. The document serves as a trusted third-party verification of financial standing, making it a crucial tool for risk assessment in business and financial transactions.
