5th Joint Economic Briefing

5TH JOINT ECONOMIC BRIEFING
Fueling the Growth of FDIs in the Philippines
19 June 2019 (Wednesday)
11am to 2pm
Legaspi Ballroom 2, Makati Diamond Residences

Net Foreign Direct Investments have been steadily growing over the years, except for last year, when we experienced a 4.4% drop from 2017’s US$10.3 Billion. The decline was due to the drop in net investments of equity capital which were mainly for manufacturing, financial and insurance, real estate, electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply, and arts and recreation. This year, the government is targeting FDIs to reach US$10.2 billion.

What has the government done so far in terms of attracting more FDIs into the Philippines? What sectors or industries will be affected by the influx of FDIs in the country?  These are just some of the questions we seek to address in our upcoming 5th JOINT ECONOMIC BRIEFING on the 19th of June 2019 from 11am to 2pm at Makati Diamond Residences.

Joining our distinguished panel of speakers are BSP Governor Dr. Benjamin Diokno, Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Assistant Secretary Angelo Taningco,  BDO First Vice President & Chief Strategist Jonathan Ravelas, and Asia Pacific Research Head Nicholas Holt. This will be hosted by Raoul Villegas, Executive Director – Deals and Corporate Finance of PwC.

The 5TH JOINT ECONOMIC BRIEFING is in partnership with 5 other European Chambers: Dutch, French, German, Italian and Spanish Chambers.  Seats are limited, so book your seats now! Register with the BCCP Events team throughevents@britcham.org.ph or call 556-5232 local 848 or 102 for inquiries.
