PH dollar reserves shrink

(UPDATE) THE Philippines' foreign exchange buffer shrank in November due to government debt payments and central bank foreign exchange operations, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) announced late on Wednesday.

At $93.95 billion, the country's gross international reserves (GIR) were down from October's $94.03 billion and $14.84 billion less than the $108.79 billion in hand at the end of last year.
