PLANBANK History


The PLANBANK “RURAL BANK OF CANLUBANG PLANTERS INC” was incorporated on November 24, 1952 by sugar planters who were members of the Banco Rural de CA-BA-LAG, a cooperative operating and serving the needs of sugar planters from the provinces of Cavite, Batangas and Laguna. The Bank was given a license to operate by the Central Bank of the Philippines (now Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas) on January 25, 1953.

The first office of the Bank was located in Barrio Canlubang. Then it transferred its head office at the Municipal Site of Calamba, and just 10 years ago it is finally transferred here in Halang, Calamba, Laguna on July of 1998.

When the restriction on bank branching was lifted in 1989, the bank took advantage of this privileged to expand its branch network. At present, the bank has (12) branches from Victoria to San Pedro all located in the province of Laguna and a new branch is in City of San Jose Del Monte, Bulacan.
