flag Philippines records $62M BOP surplus in July 2024, surpassing the $53M deficit in July 2023.

flag The Philippines recorded a $62 million balance of payments (BOP) surplus in July 2024, a reversal from the $53 million deficit in July 2023. flag The BOP surplus contributed to a year-to-date surplus of $1.5 billion, though lower than the $2.2 billion in the same period of 2023. flag The central bank attributed the surplus to factors including narrowing trade in goods deficit, net inflows from personal remittances, foreign direct investment, trade in services, and foreign portfolio investments. flag The final gross international reserves level increased to $106.7 billion in July 2024 from $105.2 billion in June 2024, providing an adequate external liquidity buffer.
