Net FDI up in October but drop year to date

Foreign direct investment (FDI) net inflows grew by 6.3 percent year-on-year to $923 million in October, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) reported late on Tuesday.

'Despite the global economic headwinds, FDI net inflows rose on account of the increase in non-residents' net investments in debt instruments and equity capital of their local affiliates,' the central bank said in a statement.
