Description

We've kept our 2025 GDP growth forecast for the Philippines at 5.5%. The 19% US headline tariff took effect in August, but uncertainty remains as sector-specific tariffs are still pending. Semiconductors – the Philippines’ top export to the US – are currently exempt from the headline tariff, but the prospect of a 100% sector-specific tariff implies substantial downside risk for the sector.
