PH debt seen as 'low risk,' but not 'bulletproof'

Manila Bulletin

|

June 14 2025

The Philippines has a "low" sovereign debt risk despite its ballooning obligations, but think tank Capital Economics cautioned that emerging markets (EMs) with better managed public finances should not rest on their laurels amid lingering fiscal strains.

- By BEN ARNOLD DE VERA

In a June 12 report authored by Capital Economics senior EMs economist Liam Peach, the Philippines joined India, Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Poland, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Israel, Morocco, Chile, and Uruguay in the EM group with "low risk, but fiscal position not bulletproof."

Capital Economics defined this group as having "generally strong public finances, but still [with] some risks around the fiscal stance."

Check your walls; disaster preparedness starts at home

The magnitude 6.9 earthquake that rattled Cebu-its tremors felt in Negros, Iloilo, and beyond-is another stark reminder that disaster preparedness is nonnegotiable. Many believe that it is the government's job. True-but it is also, fundamentally, our personal responsibility. And it should start long before a disaster strikes (and not end with a go bag).
