CBS-1 Deposit & Account Services
Introduction
Mapping Processes and Resources is a critical step in operational resilience, as prescribed under Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas Circular No. 1203 Series of 2024. This activity enables the Development Bank of the Philippines (DBP) to systematically identify and document the end-to-end processes, supporting resources, and interdependencies required to deliver its critical business service: CBS-1 Deposit and Account Services.
In alignment with regulatory expectations, this mapping ensures that DBP can:
- Identify important business services and supporting assets
- Understand interconnections across people, processes, technology, and third parties
- Detect vulnerabilities and concentration risks
- Support scenario testing, impact tolerance setting, and recovery planning
Purpose of the Chapter
This chapter provides a comprehensive mapping of processes and resources supporting each Sub-CBS under CBS-1. It enables stakeholders to:
- Visualize how services are delivered operationally
- Identify critical dependencies and potential points of failure
- Support risk assessment, scenario design, and resilience enhancements
- Ensure compliance with BSP requirements on mapping, dependency identification, and operational continuity planning

Regulatory Alignment with BSP Circular No. 1203 (2024)
The above mapping aligns with key expectations from Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas Circular No. 1203, including:
- Identification of Critical Business Services
CBS-1 is clearly defined with granular Sub-CBS components - Mapping of Interconnections and Dependencies
Each Sub-CBS includes people, process, technology, and third-party dependencies - End-to-End Process Visibility
Upstream and downstream dependencies ensure full service flow traceability - Technology and Third-Party Risk Management
Explicit identification of fintech partners, payment networks, and vendors - Support for Scenario Testing and Impact Tolerance
This mapping provides the foundation for: - Severe but plausible scenarios (e.g., system outage, cyberattack)
- Determination of Maximum Tolerable Downtime (MTD)
- Recovery strategies and continuity planning
The Map Processes and Resources for CBS-1 Deposit and Account Services provides a holistic and structured view of how DBP delivers its core banking services, highlighting the critical dependencies that sustain operations. By documenting the interplay between people, processes, technology, and third parties, DBP strengthens its ability to anticipate disruptions, respond effectively, and recover within acceptable impact tolerances.
More importantly, this mapping serves as a foundational artefact for operational resilience, enabling the bank to progress into subsequent stages such as impact tolerance setting, severe but plausible scenario identification, and scenario testing. In compliance with BSP Circular No. 1203, DBP is better positioned to ensure continuity of critical services, protection of customers, and maintenance of financial system stability.

Gain Competency: For organisations looking to accelerate their journey, BCM Institute’s training and certification programs, including the OR-5000 Operational Resilience Expert Implementer course, provide in-depth insights and practical toolkits for effectively embedding this model.
