Strong Economic Fundamentals to position the economy to adjust smoothly to effects of QE tapering and
slow down in regional growth
On 23 September 2013, the IMF mission led by Rachel van Elkan noted that the Philippines is “expected to remain strong at 6.75% in 2013
and 6% in 2014
In the first half of 2013, growth of 7.6% was underpinned by dynamic private and public demand such as robust consumption and
investment
On the impact of Fed’s prospective tapering of asset purchase, IMF states that “when tapering does eventually begin, the Philippines’
strong fundamentals—including strong current account receipts, its net creditor status, steady reductions in public debt, and low foreign
participation in government securities markets—position the economy to adjust smoothly to the accompanying capital flow reversal and
slow down in regional growth.”

14. Passage of Landmark Sin Tax Law
Sin tax to improve general health outcomes and boost government revenues
“Today, we are again making history: for the past 15 years, we have been trying to reform the tax structure of
imposing excise tax on tobacco and alcohol products. After 15 long years, we have finally succeeded.”
President Aquino, December 20, 2012
Key Provisions
Passage of the Sin Tax
Republic Act No. 10351 (“sin tax law ”) was approved by the legislature and finally signed into law in December 2012 after being first introduced over
15 years ago in 1997
Introduces higher taxes on tobacco and alcohol product based on a revised tiering system and will gradually increase over the next several years
Sin tax is expected to generate an additional Php248.5 bn revenues in the first 5 years from 2013 to 2017 of which Php34 bn is expected to be
realized in 2013
An estimated 69% of sin tax collections is expected to come from tobacco products in the first year
Highlights the Strength and Resolve of
the Aquino Administration
Passage of the sin tax after being
held-up for 15 years demonstrates the
strength of this Administration’s
mandate and ability to push through
tough legislation
Provides additional impetus and
momentum to push through other

17. Sheltered from External Trade Shocks
ROP is well-positioned to withstand a slowdown in global demand
The Republic remains less trade and export dependent than most countries in Asia and therefore less exposed to the lower consumption and slower
growth experienced in much of Europe, a slowing China and the rest of the world
In addition to being less trade dependent, exports to both China and Europe account for only a small portion of total exports for the ROP, further
insulating the economy from growth uncertainties emanating from those two regions
Despite European exports declining marginally in 2012, the total volumes of exports have actually increased highlighting its resiliency
Europe and China exports account for only a small portion of the total

The national government’s willingness to service its debt

Bond Sinking Fund which necessitates consistent cash
allocations to ensure debt servicing of maturing principal
– Presidential Decree 1177 or the Budget Reform Decree of
1977 which provides for the automatic appropriation of
principal and interest payments on public debt
20
21. Bond Sinking Fund Enhancing Debt Management
Improving public finances and debt management
Bond Sinking Fund is reflective of the Republic’s prudent management of public debt
The Bond Sinking Fund was established in 1954 for
the sole purpose of holding funds for the retirement
of local currency bonds issued by the Government of
the Philippines
Bond Issued
Payments to the Bond Sinking Fund are structured by
making annual payments to gradually retire the debt,
rather than make a single payment at maturity
Any investment returns are reinvested into the Bond
Sinking Fund balance
AMS calculates annual payment required
to cover principal payment
The Asset Management Service (AMS), an office in
the Bureau of the Treasury, ensures matching of fund
maturities to that of debt issues that are being
provisioned for
Annual contribution made over the life
of the bond until retirement
The AMS manages the maturity profile and ensures
that there is always complete alignment with debt
issues

Nominal GDP Growth
The Administration’s focus on fiscal reforms has permanently increased the revenue base and over the medium term will
bolster the government’s ability to service external and domestic debt obligations
Revenue growth is expected to continuously outpace nominal GDP growth, thereby increasing revenue buoyancy
Through a combination of liability management exercises and fiscal reforms, the cost of existing debt stock has been lowered
while simultaneously increasing government’s revenue take
The result will be a significant decline in debt servicing cost over the coming years

31. Macroprudential Measures Introduced as Safeguards
Prudent and forward-thinking policymaking to preserve stability
BSP remains ahead of the curve in protecting the economy from potential threats
Policymakers in the Philippines have been proactive in managing risks and have
introduced several prudent macro-prudential measures over the past year as
additional safeguards to protect against potentially destabilizing “hot money” flows
and to strengthen the financial sector
Raising Capital Charges on NDFs
–
Imposed higher capital charges on bank holdings of non-deliverable forwards
(NDFs) from 10% to 15%
Imposed strict restrictions on foreign funds flowing into the central bank’s
Special Deposit Accounts
–
Reduces unstable fund flows and promotes the stability of the Peso
Increased Monitoring of Bank Real Estate Exposure
–
Provided a more comprehensive measure of a bank’s real estate exposure to
include loans as well as related investments in debt and equity securities
–
Consistent with sound risk management practices as bank real estate
exposure will be referenced against its adjusted capital

32. Healthy Banking System - Key IG Credential
ROP exhibits an exceptionally healthy and resilient banking system
Banks are continuing to fortify their balance sheets with
increased capitalization, well above international norms
Unlike much of the world today, the Philippines’ banking system
remains healthy and exudes health across all relevant financial
metrics.
Capital Adequacy Ratio of U/KBs (%) 18.9%
19%
The banking system continues to improve its asset quality, with the
universal and commercial banks’ NPL ratio settling at 2.7% as of 1H
2013, while fortifying bank balance sheet through increased
capitalization and high loan-loss reserves
Banks remain funded predominately through domestic deposits and
not through wholesale channels, reducing liquidity and funding risk and
minimizing potential contagion from the lingering uncertainty in the

Loans-to-Deposit Ratio
Banking sector remains well-funded through domestic deposits – prudent and conservative underwriting standards and credit have kept system
loans-to-deposit ratio low at 73.5%
Reduces the probability of banks seeking emergency funding from the sovereign in times of stress
Minimal risk of credit-fueled asset bubbles that threaten many other Asian nations with high growth rates
Banking system assets remain small relative to the total size of the economy compared to major peers - even in the extremely unlikely scenario
that a banking system crisis were to occur, potential government contingent liabilities for the ROP would still be lower than for peers

34. Real Estate Exposure Risks are Muted
Moderate banking sector exposure to real estate mitigates price risks
Higher Real Estate Loan Levels Are Manageable
Real estate loans (REL) of universal, commercial banks and thrift banks
was 17.9% of the total loan portfolio as of end March 2013. This
exposure is within the BSP’s regulatory limitations which caps RELs at
20% of total loans.
In line with its proactive approach to ensure financial stability, the BSP
expanded its reporting system on real estate exposure (REE) of banks
which now also includes banks’ investments in debt & equity securities
as well as social housing. REE as of end March 2013 remains
manageable at 21.4% of total loan portfolio, slightly higher than the
20.8% ratio as of end 2012.
The latest data on real estate exposure of banks reflect the health of the
banking sector vis-à-vis the real estate sector. The REE report noted:
The non-performing real estate loans (NPREL) ratio remains
stable at only 3.5% as of March 2013 data
Internal simulations on credit impairment using March 2013 data
indicated that the industry’s CAR will remain well above the 10%
regulatory minimum even with a simulated 50% write down in
REEs.
In a comment to media, Moody’s Financial Institutions Analyst JeanFrancois Tremblay commented in May 2013 on banks’ exposure to the
housing sector.
He noted that exposure figures were affected by the inclusion of
the low-cost and socialized housing segments that “tend[s] to be
less susceptible to speculation”
He further commented that “trends in [prudential measures]
have remained within reasonable limits,” making reference to
“factors such as demand and supply, underwriting standards,
loan-to-value ratios and the leverage of households and firms”

35. Real Estate Exposure Risks are Muted
The real estate sector remains in balance
Market Indicators Do Not Suggest Overheating
Price Increases are Justifiable in Real Terms
Secondary Market Condo Prices
Increased supply in the real estate market reflects increased
housing demand in line with growth and investment opportunities,
especially in Manila
Real estate price increases are moderate and do not resemble
the overheating witnessed prior to the Asian Financial Crisis. In

ROP’s current account continues to be in surplus supported by robust remittances from overseas Filipino workers (“OFWs”), substantial BPO
revenues and increasing tourism receipts
BOP surplus sustained at US$3.8 bn as of end-Sep 2013
While exports remain relatively subdued due to the global economic environment, the Philippines nonetheless posted a 7.6% yoy growth of total
exports in 2012, highlighting relative resiliency of exports despite the global uncertainty

The Republic currently enjoys a healthy
level of international reserves of USD 83.5
billion as of end-September 2013, enough to
cover 11.9 months of total imports
Since 2010, ROP’s FX reserves have
exceeded its gross external debt
Strong reserve buildup is a prudent measure
to guard against external shocks and
underscores the ability of ROP to pay back
any foreign currency denominated debt

Infrastructure development remains a key national priority. Capital
outlays to GDP ratio is targeted to reach 5.2% by 2016.
DPWH 2013 budget for capital outlays is Php144.3 bn*. Capital
outlays as ratio to GDP is expected to reach 3.1% in 2013 under the
GAA.
Public spending will remain at the forefront of infrastructure
development – the 2013 budget’s allocation for public infrastructure
is 17.7% larger than 2012
Importantly, the Department of Public Works and Highways
(DPWH) has been designated as the principal infrastructure
agency and will be held responsible for timely implementation of
infrastructure projects – this appointment will accelerate the
completion of projects in addition to creating an expert agency to
warehouse knowledge and best practices for procurement
processes, project standards, and cost structures

44. Revitalizing mining to promote economic development
and social growth
Resource rich sector to attract investments
The Philippines has substantial mineral capacity
Mining will bring in significant revenue for the government
A June 2012 IMF study noted that the mining sector
will provide ~$1bn revenue per year under the current
largely employed MPSA tax regime
The Philippines has 5.56 million
hectares of land with mineral
potential that is available for
applications
Metallic: 3.96mm ha
Non-metallic: 1.60mm ha
Action to Date: EO 79 passed in July 2012
demonstrates the government’s commitment to action
within the mining sector and paves the way for further
action
Planned Legislation: Rationalization of the Mining
Fiscal Regime is one of the nine key initiatives the
government will prioritize once the 16th Congress
begins in late July. At a cabinet meeting on July 15
Secretary Purisima stated the government’s intention
to prioritize this legislation

47. Mindanao: From Conflict to Peace and Prosperity
Ushering in peace after over four decades of conflict
Background to the conflict in the southern Philippines
Islam spread to Mindanao in the 13th century and the Spanish called the population “Moros” after the Moors in Spain
Historically, Moro and native Lumad populations were politically and economically excluded, leading to poverty and unrest
Insurgent groups formed in the late 1960s, and violence ensued.
Timeline to peace
Formation of
MNLF with goal of
fighting for an
independent Moro
nation.
Violence ensued…
1968
The Jeddah Accord
was signed by the
Philippine
government and the
MNLF to continue
implementation of a
regional autonomy
1976
The Organization of
Islamic Conference was
invited to facilitate the
negotiations leading to the
signing of Tripoli
Agreement, however it
does not stop the fighting
1987
President Fidel Ramos signed
a peace agreement with the
MNLF. The Final Peace
Agreement led to the
establishment of the SPCPD*
and the election of MNLF Chair
Nur Misuari as Governor of the
ARMM.

Social Services
Conditional cash transfer program is a helping hand to Filipino families through cash grants for the health and education of
children and the health of expecting mothers. The more than USD 1bn budget for 2013 is expected to benefit 3.8 mn
households
The National Health Insurance Program makes universal health insurance coverage a reality. Philhealth provides around
40 mn of the poorest Filipino households full coverage of expenses for medical procedures, including maternity and newborn
care packages and treatment of selected catastrophic diseases. For 2014, 14.7 million poor, near poor families will receive
health insurance coverage
The K TO 12 Program is raising the standard of Filipino education. Adding two more years to the basic education curriculum
puts it at par with the education cycles around the world. Through programs like the Training for Work Scholarships, skills
learned by students will meet the demands of the labor market, encouraging innovation and industry, and ultimately opening
more doors of possibility for our nation

governments in crafting the Budget
Increased outlay in 2014 will go to investments in Infrastructure, in Good Governance and Anti-Corruption, in Building Human
Capabilities especially of the poor, through quality education, public healthcare and housing, and in Climate Change
Adaptation Measures – all fundamental requirements for the country’s competitiveness and development
