1 Starting 1 January 2020, universal and commercial banks (UK/Bs) are required to submit the amended reporting templates on banks' lending and deposit rates or Interest Rates on Loans and Deposits (IRLD) in accordance with Circular Nos. 1029 and 1037, series of 2019. Data are preliminary estimates as of 15 January 2025 given the ongoing refinements of the IRLD reporting system. Bank submissions with interest rates of 100% and above were excluded per account code from the computation per the Department of Supervisory Analytics (DSA) and Supervisory Policy and Research Department's (SPRD) definition of outliers.
2 Refers to the interest rate based on reporting UK/Bs' interest expense and outstanding peso-denominated deposits. There is a break in the series beginning August 2022 given data updates. The series will be linked once data prior to August 2022 become available.
3 Refers to the interest rate based on reporting UK/Bs' interest income and outstanding peso-denominated loans
4 Refers to the average of UK/Bs' reported quoted or indicative high/low lending rates
5 On 3 June 2016, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) adopted the interest rate corridor (IRC) to guide short-term market rates towards the BSP policy interest rate, which is the overnight RRP rate. The interest rates for the standing liquidity facilities–the OLF and the ODF, form the corridor's upper and lower bound, respectively. In addition, the TDF serves as the main tool for absorbing liquidity. On 8 September 2023, the BSP shifted to a variable-rate format with a pre-determined offer volume in the auction for the overnight RRP facility. In this regard, the BSP signals its monetary policy stance through the Target RRP rate, which was set at 5.75 percent effective 20 December 2024. The ODF rate and OLF rate were adjusted to 5.25 percent and 6.25 percent, respectively. Also, the BSP introduced a formal operational target–the ON RRP rate. An operational target is a market-determined, short-term interest rate that central banks can guide on a day-to-day basis using their monetary instruments to reflect the prevailing monetary policy stance.
6 Beginning 18 September 2020, the BSP has offered BSP Securities as part of its initiative to shift to more market-based monetary operations. The inclusion of BSP Securities issuance in the standard monetary operations of the BSP provides an additional instrument for managing liquidity in the financial system and support the implementation of monetary policy under the IRC framework. On 30 June 2023, the BSP started offering 56-day BSP Bills. The introduction of the 56-day BSP Bill expands the range of BSP’s term instruments and increases the BSP’s flexibility to respond to changing liquidity conditions while providing additional guidance to short-term market interest rates.
