The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) today announced its projection for June 2025 inflation, estimating it to settle within a range of 1.1 to 1.9 percent. This forecast underscores the BSP’s ongoing commitment to monitoring price movements and ensuring a stable economic environment.
The central bank identified several factors likely to exert upward pressure on prices during the month. These include anticipated higher prices for meat and vegetables, persistent elevated oil prices, and the continued depreciation of the Philippine Peso.
However, these inflationary pressures are expected to be partially mitigated by a decline in the prices of key commodities such as rice, fish, and fruits. Additionally, lower electricity rates are projected to contribute to easing overall price levels.
Looking ahead, the BSP reaffirms its dedication to safeguarding price stability. The institution remains committed to ensuring that its monetary policy settings are conducive to fostering sustainable economic growth and employment across the nation.
