Abstract:The Philippines halts FX and bond trading but reopens the stock market after Typhoon Gaemi's impact. Safety and mobility concerns influenced the decision.
The Philippines paused currency and fixed-income trading on Thursday due to Typhoon Gaemi, which just blew across the nation. However, the stock market has reopened for business, offering some normality among the interruptions.
The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) issued the suspension, citing its most recent evaluation of the safety and mobility conditions. In a Facebook post, the central bank stressed the importance of protecting the well-being of market participants and the general public. The Philippine Dealing and Exchange Corporation endorsed this move by suspending fixed-income trading.
Despite the suspension of these markets, the Philippine Stock Exchange said in a post on X that equities market activity will resume on Thursday. This measure aims to stabilize financial operations and allow investors to manage their portfolios.
The decision comes after Manila halted government and educational operations on Thursday. Heavy monsoon rains created a landslide that displaced at least half a million people, illustrating Typhoon Gaemi's devastating effect. After wreaking havoc in the Philippines and Taiwan, the typhoon is now heading toward China.
The storm has wreaked havoc, causing extensive power outages in hundreds of thousands of homes, flooding streets, and at least five deaths. Authorities prioritize safety and recovery activities as the country tries to restore order in devastated regions.
