RA 337 Section 33

Section 33

SEC. 33. Any savings and mortgage bank may, with the approval of the Monetary Board, issue mortgage and chattel mortgage certificates, buy and sell them for its own account or for the account of others, or accept and receive them in payment or as amortization of its loans. Such mortgage and chattel mortgage certificates shall be issued exclusively in national currency and exclusively for the financing of the loans enumerated in subsections (b) (c) and (d) of section thirty-one. The Monetary Board may issue such regulations as it deems necessary with respect to the maturities, rates of interest, denominations and other conditions pertaining to such certificates. The bank shall strive to co-ordinate the amounts and maturities of its certificates with those of its loans, so as to ensure adequate cash receipts for the payment of principal and interest at the time they become due. Savings and mortgage banks shall accept their own certificates at least at the actual price of issue, in any prepayment of loans which mortgage or chattel mortgage debtors may wish to make, provided that the date of maturity of the certificates is not later than the date on which the payment would otherwise become due, in the absence of the aforesaid prepayment.
