The Philippine economy continues to face domestic challenges such as corruption issues, weather-related disruptions, declining foreign direct investments, and weaker domestic demand, which have contributed to slower economic growth. At the same time, external uncertainties—including trade restrictions, shifting policy landscapes, and moderate growth among partner economies—pose additional risks to the country’s outlook as we head into 2026.
Join the British Chamber of Commerce Philippines on 29 January 2026, from 3:00 to 6:00 PM in Makati City (venue TBC) for the first Trade & Connect event of 2026, themed “Forecasting 2026: UK–PH Economic Perspectives.”
This session will provide a forward-looking assessment of the Philippine economy, explore UK–Philippines trade and investment dynamics, and highlight priority sectors, emerging risks, and opportunities for deeper bilateral cooperation. Bringing together leaders from government and the private sector, this initiative aims to navigate emerging challenges and identify strategies to strengthen collaboration between the UK and the Philippines.
