Philippines Outlook: Government Spending to the Rescue
Rapid disbursements of the FY2012 budget for public-private partnership (PPP) infrastructure projects will boost public construction and government consumption and services to support growth in 2012, alleviate bottlenecks for investments and improve the country’s long-term growth prospects. Robust remittances and income from business process outsourcing (BPO) services will strengthen the Philippines’ external payments position, while continuing to support domestic consumption until the external sector improves in H2. After slashing interest rates to record lows to support the domestic economy, the central bank (BSP) will hold policy rates and instead choose to rely on the reserve requirement ratio (RRR) to manage capital inflows and liquidity.
