OVERSEAS FILIPINOS PUMPED $20.7B OR P1.035T INTO PH ECONOMY FROM JANUARY TO AUGUST 2017

The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas, our country's constitutionally-mandated central monetary authority, is doing a splendid job at financial inclusion so that more Filipinos are able to avail of financial services wherever they are nationwide or overseas.

One clear sign of this is the growth in Overseas Filipino remittances sent through banks, money transfer firms, and other formal intermediaries.

The latest BSP figures show that personal remittances increased by 6.4 percent in August 2017 while from January to August personal remittances totaled US$20.7 billion, or P1.035 trillion (at P50 to $1.00), which is one-third of the country’s current budget.

Overseas Filipinos, our modern-day heroes, pumped P1.035 trillion into the Philippine economy, and continues to keep the economy afloat!

Working together with the formal financial intermediaries, the BSP, DOLE, DFA, DTI, and other government agencies were able to make the remittance services happen and protect the hard-earned monies of OFWs.

Here at home, there are continuing efforts to enable OFWs and their dependents to acquire financial literacy, including how to save for future emergencies, future needs, sound investments, and entrepreneurship.

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
