Philippine Peso Slides Toward Key Level 60
The Philippine peso weakened toward the psychological 60-per-dollar level, hitting a fresh record low as higher energy prices pressured the currency. The peso remains particularly vulnerable to rising oil costs, given the country’s heavy reliance on imported fuel, with more than 90% of crude supplies sourced from the Middle East. Crude prices held around $100 a barrel, extending their surge as tensions in the Iran conflict showed no signs of easing. In response, Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas Governor Eli Remolona Jr. said the central bank had intervened in the foreign-exchange market to stabilize the currency, though the move did little to curb losses. Even before the escalation of the Iran conflict, officials had already identified the 60-per-dollar level as a key threshold. Earlier this month, Remolona warned that persistently high oil prices could force the central bank to consider a rate hike.

Philippine Peso Hits New Record Low
The Philippine peso weakened past 59.5 per dollar, marking a new record low as oil topped $100 a barrel for the first time since 2022, weighing on the country’s oil-importing economy. Oil prices surged further amid expectations of prolonged supply disruptions from the ongoing Middle East conflict, now in its second week. Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas Governor Eli Remolona Jr. warned that escalating tensions could create economic headwinds, affecting both overseas remittances and inflation. Analysts at Nomura raised their 2026 inflation forecast for the Philippines to 3.2% from 2.5%, largely due to elevated oil costs. With more than 90% of its crude imports coming from the Middle East, the country remains highly exposed to oil shocks.

Philippine Peso Moves Toward Record Low
The Philippine peso depreciated to around 59 per dollar in early March, approaching its record low as risk sentiment weakened amid the ongoing Middle East conflict. The crisis has pushed oil prices higher, raising risks for the Philippines, which relies heavily on fuel and food imports and is considered one of the region’s most vulnerable economies to inflation and growth shocks. Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas Governor Eli Remolona warned that oil reaching $100 per barrel could require tighter policy if inflation exceeds the central bank’s target, which could further weigh on the economy after its lackluster growth. He added that the central bank has limited room to support growth and has little appetite to intervene in the peso unless depreciation threatens inflation. Inflation accelerated to 2.4% in February, the fastest pace in over a year, adding to concerns over rising prices.
