[Title] => BSP likely to keep key rates steady
[Summary] =>
The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) is expected to hold its policy rates steady when the Monetary Board (MB) meets tomorrow to reassess its monetary stance.
The combined effects of the strong peso, steady interest rates and domestic prices have kept inflation rate on the downward path much lower than monetary officials projected, giving the MB even wider room to flex its monetary tools.

[Title] => Benchmark T-bill rate down
[Summary] => The benchmark 91-day Treasury bill rate went down 6.2 basis points to 9.59 percent even as government gave in to the market’s move to push up interest rates for longer-term T-bills.
In yesterday’s auction, the Bureau of Treasury succumbed to pressure from banks which bid up rates for the 182-day and 364-day T-bills although at a decelerated pace. The six-month T-bill climbed 13.4 basis points to 11.659 percent from 11.525 percent, while the one-year bills climbed 42.1 basis points to 12.798 percent from 12.557 percent in the previous week.

[Title] => Peso to stabilize this week — Buenaventura
[Summary] => Even with slower dollar inflows, the badly-battered peso is expected to stabilize at current levels this week, Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) Governor Rafael Buenaventura said.
"We are hoping it will stabilize at … slightly below P52 given that other currencies in the region have also weakened," Buenaventura said, stressing that despite the accelerated depreciation of the peso versus the US dollar in the past few weeks, "there has been no capital flight."

[Title] => BSP to follow US Fed lead on policy rates
[Summary] => The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) may cut its key rates by as much as 25 basis points, depending on how much shaving of its own key rates will be done by the US Federal Reserve Committee this month.
BSP Governor Rafael Buenaventura said the central bank’s move will depend on the "aggressiveness" of the US Fed in cutting its overnight borrowing and lending rates.
"If the US Fed becomes less aggressive and cuts rates at less than the anticipated 25 basis points, there is little room for the BSP to central bank to cut its own key rates," Buenaventura said.

[Title] => Inflation fears prompt BSP to keep rates steady
[Summary] => The Monetary Board (MB), the policy-making body of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), has kept its key rates unchanged on concerns inflation levels could go up.
The MB maintained the overnight borrowing and lending rates at nine percent and 11.25 percent, respectively.
