Philippines October inflation pegged within 2.9-3.8% range

Thanks to moderating food prices and a strong peso.

OCBC Treasury Research noted:

BSP trimmed its key policy rate by 25bps to 3.50% on Thursday, stating the need to provide further boost to domestic investment and consumption in the country, despite acknowledging that the domestic underpinnings of the country remain solid at this juncture.

Separately, the BSP also stated that inflation in October would come in within the 2.9-3.8% range, helped by moderating food prices and a strong PHP in the month.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
