    Abstract: The Philippines corporate debt and equity markets will need to grow to provide alternative financing sources to support the strongly growing economy and emphasis on infrastructure spend. Capital markets deepening will be an essential pre-requisite for the country's continued economic development. Well-functioning capital markets ensure the optimal allocation and pricing of capital. This enables retail and wholesale pools of capital to be efficiently deployed in a manner that maximizes returns for such owners of capital against their risk profile. Furthermore, there are a number of technical and operational issues that can be addressed, that can significantly improve the enabling environment for and functioning of the capital markets. The result of these factors has been a lack of focus in policy development and implementation that has hampered capital market development. Key issues include: a lack of commitment to reform from key stakeholders that has impeded the development of markets and market infrastructure; an onerous tax environment that has deterred issuance and investment; a continuing need to improve investor confidence by strengthening the quality of supervision and enforcement for market intermediaries and market operators; cumbersome regulatory requirements and processes around issuance, particularly debt issuance; and outdated and inefficient trading and post-trading infrastructure, and governance concerns regarding market operators. In order to effect meaningful change, a capital markets champion is required. This champion should be cognizant of the relevance of capital markets to the country and possess the will and vision to drive legislative, regulatory, and tax reforms. In addition, a commitment to initiate a change in the ownership and governance of key exchanges and enforce policy against entrenched interests will provide considerable impetus for development

    Abstract: The Philippine payment, clearing, and settlement infrastructure consists of systemically important financial market infrastructures and retail payment systems. The Philippine payment and settlement system (PhilPaSS) was implemented in 2002 and is operated by the payments and settlements office (PSO) of Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) and the oversight function is with the payment system oversight department (PSOD) of BSP. The rules and regulations for implementation of the national payment systems act (NPSA) have to be notified by the BSP on an immediate basis to provide a high degree of certainty for payment systems in Philippines, including each material aspect of PhilPaSS' activities. The BSP should obtain the approval of the Monetary Board (MB) for the operations of PhilPaSS as laid down under section 8 of the NPSA. It is recommended that BSP issue necessary secondary legislation under the NPSA covering the registration of payment systems. In order to ensure that the current governance framework adequately represents the interests of the relevant stakeholders in PhilPaSS, BSP may take suitable measures such as considering stakeholder representation in the Board Risk Oversight Committee (BROC) or in the digital payments transformation steering committee (DPTSC) for direct participants or alternately constitute user committees and undertake a public consultation process. The MB should establish a clear, documented risk-management framework that includes the PhilPaSS' risk policy, assigns responsibilities and accountability for risk decisions, and addresses decision-making in crises and emergencies. It is accordingly recommended that: (i) the enterprise risk management (ERM) framework to include legal risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, settlement risk, custody risk, and reputational risk for PhilPaSS, apart from operational risk; and (ii) consider strengthening the BROC to enable it to also function as a risk committee for PhilPaSS in addition to its existing role

    Abstract: The Philippines' financial sector is highly vulnerable to climate risks. The country has high exposure to natural hazards (typhoons, landslides, floods, droughts, volcanic eruptions), strong dependence on a climate-sensitive agricultural sector, and vast coastlines where all major cities and the majority of the population reside. Significant systemic vulnerabilities can materialize if large natural disasters affect the capital region. In addition to physical risks, Philippine banks can also be exposed to transition impacts, that is, risks that emerge during the transition towards a more sustainable and carbon-neutral economy. Philippine supervisory authorities should build capacity to better understand and manage climate risks and foster transparency. At the same time, there is opportunity for deepening financial markets for green growth, by addressing several market and institutional barriers. With limits in public spending, there is great need, but also a significant opportunity for the private sector to contribute to green inclusive growth, including finance for climate resilience and mitigation efforts

    Abstract: This technical note, prepared based on the financial sector assessment program (FSAP) mission to the Philippines, presents the overview of retail payments in the country and assesses its various aspects against relevant international standards and guidance. The assessment covers twelve thematic areas, which include: (1) public and private sector commitment; (2) legal and regulatory framework; (3) governance arrangements; (4) market competitiveness; (5) financial and information and communications technology (ICT) infrastructures; (6) risk management; (7) access points; (8) product design; (9) awareness and financial literacy; (10) leveraging large-volume recurrent payment streams; (11) payment systems oversight; and (12) cooperation and information sharing. This paper aims to present a succinct but comprehensive assessment of the most important aspects of the retail payments market in the Philippines. The scope of the assessment also includes an examination of the nascent fintech ecosystem, insofar as it relates to the provision of payment services or using retail payment services and accompanying infrastructure to build other value-added products

    Abstract: The insurance industry in Philippines is small but growing. Insurance penetration remains below that observed in many countries in the region and very low compared to countries with similar per capita incomes in other parts of the world. During the last five years, the Insurance Commission (IC) has made a significant effort to improve insurance regulation and supervision. The IC has considerable autonomy in practice but lacks operational supervisory independence. Improving the independence of the IC should be accompanied by measures to increase its formal accountability to the government. The assessment has identified areas for further development of IC's supervisory approach, like risk profiling, and stronger cooperation and coordination among supervisors. A key recommendation is that IC formulate a strategy with an implementation plan to advance its risk based and market conduct supervision. While consumer protection has improved in many respects, ongoing oversight of insurance intermediaries should be improved. IC should review its resources and organization to meet the demands of a more risk-based approach. IC's inspection methods, data collection, and reporting infrastructure (IT systems), analytical tools, and on-site inspection manuals require a major overhaul. The IC should carry out a comprehensive review of the current regulations and supervision processes and data reporting requirements with the view to reduce the regulatory burden on the industry. In conjunction with strengthening governance, transparency, and internal control requirements, own risk and solvency assessment (ORSA), and enterprise risk management (ERM) requirements should be developed and implemented on an individual entity and group basis. Enabling new product development and liberalizing tariffs should be considered as part of an IC growth strategy for the insurance sector

    Abstract: The securities and exchange commission (SEC) is the main regulator of the capital market in the Philippines, but its resources are insufficient to adequately address its core functions, especially the supervision of capital market participants, and yet it has to address other legal responsibilities unrelated to capital markets. Other agencies also have capital market regulatory responsibilities, creating a fragmented regulatory framework that causes inconsistencies detrimental to the market and to investors' protection. The existence of regulatory arbitrage, supervisory overlaps, and enforcement gaps evidences the need for an active periodic procedure with other financial system regulators to coordinate supervision activities and review unregulated products, markets, market participants and activities. It should include information sharing and analysis of areas where there may be arbitrage, overlap, gaps, and risks to investor protection and market fairness, efficiency and transparency or other risks to the financial system. A clear and consistent risk-based approach for the SEC supervision of capital market intermediaries is needed. The bank secrecy legislation of Philippines impedes prompt access by the SEC to bank account information

    Abstract: Based on research and analysis over the past few years, the World Bank Group Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) Cross-Cutting Solution Area has worked on creating a Framework for Disclosure in Public-Private Partnerships, which suggests a systematic structure for disclosing information proactively at different phases of the PPP process. Two documents, Jurisdictional Studies and Good Practice Cases, have been developed to provide relevant background and resources complementing the goals of the framework. The framework suggests the initiation of work with a PPP Disclosure Diagnostic in countries. The objective of the Diagnostic is to help PPP policy makers and practitioners to assess the status of PPP disclosure in the jurisdiction and identify customized PPP disclosure solutions for all PPP types to enable better disclosure. Under each of the areas identified, the Diagnostic provides the key questions policy makers and practitioners should ask, analysis and techniques for assessing gaps, resources for learning more, and tools for establishing customized PPP disclosure guidelines for the jurisdiction. The relevance of each of the above areas varies based on the unique circumstances within the country. This diagnostic report is structured around the key themes that are relevant to Kenya's disclosure environment
