Net inflows of brick-and-mortar foreign direct investment (FDI) into the Philippines increased to $610 million in April, the highest in three months, driven by larger investments in the manufacturing sector from Japan.

Net FDI inflows climbed by 7.1 percent from $570 million in April last year, according to preliminary data from the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP). FDI at the start of the second quarter was the highest since February’s $731 million.

“FDI into the Philippines remained positive in April 2025, with inflows from Japan and into manufacturing taking the lead,” the BSP said ina statement on Thursday, July 10.
