'Growth to pick up next year as easing takes effect'
The Philippine Star
|November 23, 2025
Ty-led Metropolitan Bank and Trust Co. (Metrobank) is projecting a gradual recovery for the Philippine economy in 2026, alongside potential monetary easing by year-end.
The economy may gain strength next year as infrastructure activity resumes and interest rate cuts take effect.
Speaking at the bank’s 2025 Market Movers series, Metrobank chief economist and markets strategist Nicholas Mapa said the economy may regain momentum next year as infrastructure activity resumes and the effects of earlier rate cuts filter through.
Economic managers, through the Development Budget Coordination Committee (DBCC), have set a gross domestic product (GDP) growth target of six to seven percent for 2026, up from 5.5 to 6.5 percent for 2025.
