Description

We maintain our 2025 GDP growth forecast for the Philippines at 5.5%. While the agreed 19% US headline tariff rate has eased some uncertainty for businesses, a bigger risk comes from sector-specific tariffs on currently exempt products, particular semiconductors – these are yet to be announced. However, as the economy relies more on domestic consumption, we expect the direct impact of the US tariff hikes on overall growth to be limited.
