In this episode, we unpack the key differences between fiscal and monetary policy and how both shape the direction of the Philippine economy. With the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas overseeing money supply, interest rates, and credit, and the national government proposing a Php6.3 trillion budget for 2025 alongside a projected Php16.0 trillion debt, we discuss the role of deficit spending and how infrastructure investments can drive long-term growth.
We also explore what these policies mean for SMEs, investors, and consumers—from interest rate trends and peso volatility to tax reforms and potential rate cuts. In a consumption-driven economy, understanding the impact of policy shifts is essential to making informed financial and investment decisions.
