During our policy meeting today, the MB decided to keep the interest rate on the BSP’s overnight reverse repurchase facility at 6.25%. The interest rates on the overnight deposit and lending facilities were thus retained at 5.75% and 6.75%, respectively.

I recently spoke at the Ateneo Eagle Watch Economic Briefing about what we can learn from past crises and how to build resilience. PH banks are in good shape and have maintained more than adequate levels of capital and liquidity. We also need to build corporate bond market.

This means there's a good chance for a hike but we'll still have to look at the data. We will respond as necessary to safeguard the inflation target in keeping with the BSP's primary mandate to ensure price stability.

Based on the data, a pause is prudent but the @BangkoSentral is ready to hike if the upside risks materialize. We are within striking distance of the inflation target range of 2% to 4% – we will be within the target range by the end of this year and certainly by 2024 and 2025.

@BangkoSentral I also shared that we have more than ample reserves. While we do worry about a possible slowdown in the global economy next year and possible financial accidents, we have so far emerged unscathed, thanks to our very strong banking system.

Latest BSP baseline projections show a slightly higher inflation path. Nonetheless, inflation is still projected to revert to the 2 to 4 percent target range by Q4 2023, in the absence of further supply-side shocks.

The MB deems it necessary to keep monetary policy settings tighter for longer until inflationary expectations are better anchored and a sustained downward trend in inflation becomes evident.
