                      The Philippines‟ 1983 to 2006 Balance of Payment, a systematic summary of its economic transactions to the rest of the world, reflects the country‟s ever changing
                economic policy experimentations and inconsistencies. It also reflects how various internal and external factors affect its economy, thus reflecting a “boom and bust” trend
                as shown in Chart A below. Also, it explains the country‟s quality, or lack thereof, of economic development.

                      The overall Balance of Payment (BoP) does not show any trend to derive a sound projection as shown by the blue bar in the below-mentioned chart, albeit, it can be
                seen that there were more blue bar that can be counted above the zero line. This means more incidences of surplus, as compared to incidence of deficit and balance. From
                1983 to 1989, the BoP showed a picture registering either a surplus or a balance amidst a turbulent political crisis and hostile business environment in the country

highlighted by assassination of Senator Benigno Aquino – a known political opposition – which was blamed to the government in 1983; citizens unrest; and peaceful yet
mass upheaval which later to be known as People Power Revolution in 1986. There are several factors that contributed to this picture of BoP.

                                                                                                      from 1998 -2002, the current account exhibited a constant deficit,

      -300000.00                                                                                      a constant surplus almost mimicking the reverse of the Current

generally, it shows that the Philippines‟ excess of payments for its imported items are usually compensated by a surplus of the country‟s receipt of foreign loans, both
private and public, and investments after deducting the amount they pay for interest and repayment of capital of former loans and investments. This is also the era of
“Taiwan‟s money” in form of portfolio investments flooding the country‟s market every now and then to take advantage of the country‟s high exchange rate and interest
rates.

       In short, the Philippines resort, almost always, to borrowings to offset the deficiency of its income from its exports after deducting the expenses it incurred from its
import. Abetting this surplus in Capital Account, or helping the Capital account to offset the deficiency of the country‟s inflows is its foreign reserves as showed by the violet
line which shows the changes in the Cash Balance of the country. Exports gives the Philippines dollars while imports uses up the country‟s dollar reserves, and whatever is
left after importing goes to the foreign reserves. This is because BoP transactions in the Philippines are denominated and/or financed in dollars. This will explain the almost
parallel movement of the violet line (Changes in Foreign Reserves) and the red line (current account). This abatement happened in such a way that due to the chronic
deficit of the country‟s current account, it has to use it foreign reserves to pay off its debt and offset the current account deficit. As we can see, the BoP is computed in two
ways, either by the so-called above-the-line items which refers to the sum of the balances of the capital, current and financial accounts; or by the so-called below-the-line-
items which refers to the change of the country‟s foreign reserves as a result of those transactions as mentioned earlier. Ideally, both ways shall yield the same result but
due to the limitations of the data for the above-the-line items, the overall BoP position is determined using the below-the-line items and discrepancies therein falls under
the category of “Net Unclassified Items”.

      From 1998 to 1999, however, capital account balance started to become nil and started to decrease. This is so because capital transfers are already virtually non-
existent. The country is generating so much bad news in terms of investment favorability under the Estrada Administration and impending civil and political unrest
exacerbated this situation. Investor confidence is at its lowest at this time. Government debt already reached staggering heights, thus, the government started effecting a

Bank on commercial terms, re-structure its old loans and rely heavily on Official Development Assistance from various Foreign Government and Institution which offers a

      In 1999, after the Asian Financial Crisis, the World Bank forced the government of the Philippines to adopt fiscal and austerity measures resulting to the sudden
reversal of the Balance on Goods. However, the World Bank intervention made even the country‟s current account look worse. Prior to the World Bank Intervention, the
previous Balance on Other Goods, Services and Income (red line) which traversed the positive side of the scale now finds itself on the deficit side while the sudden reversal
on the Balance on Goods return to its previous decreasing state (or increasing deficit). The Unrequited Goods, the account that refers to the transfer of assets from one
country to another without expecting for recompense such as foreign aid grants, became increasingly bigger and bigger from its previous minimal state. This signals the
increasing dependency of the country to Foreign Grants.

      Contributing also on these which also affects the volatility of these investments are the also volatile exchange risk rate, interest rate risk, equity and commodity price risk,
      etc which are part and parcel of unregulated stock market in the Philippines and liberalized stock trading market in the world due to the globalization and liberalization of
      the said market. In this arrangement, almost always, Developing Countries, such as the Philippines is on the losing end.

            In summary, the Philippines BoP changes over time can be attributed and linked to several factors. Definitely, it‟s Economic Policy which focuses more on economics
      of quantity rather than economics of quality and its failure to utilize fully its comparative advantage played a vital role in advancing its dream of a balance BoP or a Surplus
      at the least. Political Instability is a key player in affecting changes in its economic account with the world. Sound macro and micro economic fundamentals also influenced
      movement in the BoP of one‟s country, thus, the Philippines has a need for this. In the era of globalization, the soundness and strength of the country‟s economic
      fundamentals must be ensured in order for it to be isolated, or be mitigated, from the sudden changes of the global economic developments such as the recent US debt
      crunch. Although from 1983 to 2000, it exhibited a dismal performance, recent data shows an improvement in the overall picture. Economic Reforms and Policy Changes
      has been taking place since 2003 in the Philippines such as diversification of its foreign reserves in its effort to detached its economy from the US dollar currency; its slow
      decoupling from US and Latin America and diversifying its trade relations with Japan and China; practicing debt management and debt risk monitoring; increased in exports
      and diversifying its exports to service sector while maintaining its lead in electronics; maintaining its competitive and liberal labor supply to further engage the
      manufacturing sector of automobile and ship building; etc. What is needed now is to maintain this trend in its recent BoP data to finally advance its dream of economic
      recovery and progress.

            As shown in the scattered diagram above tabbed as GROWTH INDEX OF (Xt + Mt) AND GDE, it demonstrates that the growth pattern of Gross Domestic
       Expenditures always far outrace the growth pattern of the sum of export and import except that of the year 2002 to 2003. In general though, the two maintain the same
       separate growth trend wherein both have maintained an almost the same growth rate but on a different parallel path – the gross domestic expenditure above the sum of
       (Xt + Mt). This would seems to show that the Growth Domestic Expenditures is always more than the sum of the Exports and Imports of the Philippines, thus, almost
       always, will generate a deficit result there being the expenditures is always more than the net income it can acquire from its trade transactions of goods and services. Year
       2002 to 2004 growth rate seems to accelerate and caught up with the GDE. But this is not the case. Marked by so much political bickering and a government operating in

TERM PAPER FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT 2                                                [ANALYSIS OF INTERNATIONAL TRADE AND FINANCE OF THE PHILIPPINES]

       re-enacted budget of previous years, it was the GDE that had slowed down on these years. Contributing to this is the sudden restraint of domestic spending in anticipation
       of the difficult years ahead resulting to low interest rates and sluggard domestic trading affecting the GDP growth.

             After getting the sum of the Exports and Imports and dividing the same by the Gross Domestic Expenditures, a new index had been generated. I plotted the new
       index in a scattered diagram (shown in a blue line in NEW INDEX (INDEX OF TRADE DEPENDENCY) chart as shown above) after deriving the values to observe the
       pattern. It would give the impression that the trade dependency index mimics the pattern of the sum of (Xt + Mt). As had been noted, whenever the new index decline,
       there is also a decline in the sum of (Xt + Mt). This growth trend of the new index exhibits the clear indication that the economy of the Philippines relies heavily on its
       export industries imitating the Japan‟s example of relying heavily on “processing trade” or “trade as engine of growth” wherein the country export manufactured or semi-
       manufactured goods from imported materials. I think several factors led the country to pursue this trade dependence as an engine of its growth and take the example set
       forth by Japan. These factors are the relative small market of the Philippines as compared to other countries, the relative underdeveloped endowments of the country and
       the constitutional prohibition to further exploit them, and the abundance of cheap but otherwise semi-skilled labor supply. The slight decline of the new index in 2005 and
       2006 does not mean that export and import sector became sluggish on these years. In fact there is a noticeable increase on export and imports in the years mentioned. It
       should be attributed however to the sudden increase of share to the GDP of massive inflows of Overseas Filipino Workers‟ dollar income remittances affecting the trade
       dependency ratio as it also affects the GDE/GDP variable.

The overall Balance of Payment (BoP) does not show any trend to derive a sound projection as shown by the blue bar in the below-mentioned chart, albeit, it can be seen that there were more blue bar that can be counted above the zero line.

There are several factors that contributed to this picture of BoP. From 1987 to present, BoP was marked by a “boom and Chart A bust” pattern of inflows and outflows. Notable on this pattern is BALANCE OF PAYMENTS the huge deficit in year 1997. This is attributable to the Asian 400000.00 Financial Crisis that greatly affected the Philippines. BoP showed a surplus on the next two years only to demonstrate again a deficit 300000.00 on the next two following years. Even the latest data from 2003 to present cannot establish a permanent trend. This see saw trend in 200000.00 the BoP suggested that the macro-economic fundamentals, especially monetary policies, of the country were weak that its In Millions of Pesos OVERALL BALANCE overall BoP position can be easily affected by various and constant, 100000.00 Current Account sometimes very fluid and volatile, changes of diverse internal and Capital Account external economic and political developments. 0.00 The current account, represented in Chart A in red line, also Changes in Cash Balance (Foreign Reserves) 1983 1984 1985 1986 1987 1988 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 showed how it changed overtime and influenced the trade -100000.00 transactions of the country to the rest of the world. As we can see, from 1998 -2002, the current account exhibited a constant deficit, -200000.00 except in 1998, whereas the Capital Account, represented in the chart in green line, showed the reverse of the former by exhibiting -300000.00 a constant surplus almost mimicking the reverse of the Current Account. Many explanations can be attributed to this trend but generally, it shows that the Philippines‟ excess of payments for its imported items are usually compensated by a surplus of the country‟s receipt of foreign loans, both private and public, and investments after deducting the amount they pay for interest and repayment of capital of former loans and investments. This is also the era of “Taiwan‟s money” in form of portfolio investments flooding the country‟s market every now and then to take advantage of the country‟s high exchange rate and interest rates. In short, the Philippines resort, almost always, to borrowings to offset the deficiency of its income from its exports after deducting the expenses it incurred from its import. Abetting this surplus in Capital Account, or helping the Capital account to offset the deficiency of the country‟s inflows is its foreign reserves as showed by the violet line which shows the changes in the Cash Balance of the country. Exports gives the Philippines dollars while imports uses up the country‟s dollar reserves, and whatever is left after importing goes to the foreign reserves. This is because BoP transactions in the Philippines are denominated and/or financed in dollars. This will explain the almost parallel movement of the violet line (Changes in Foreign Reserves) and the red line (current account). This abatement happened in such a way that due to the chronic deficit of the country‟s current account, it has to use it foreign reserves to pay off its debt and offset the current account deficit. As we can see, the BoP is computed in two ways, either by the so-called above-the-line items which refers to the sum of the balances of the capital, current and financial accounts; or by the so-called below-the-line- items which refers to the change of the country‟s foreign reserves as a result of those transactions as mentioned earlier. Ideally, both ways shall yield the same result but due to the limitations of the data for the above-the-line items, the overall BoP position is determined using the below-the-line items and discrepancies therein falls under the category of “Net Unclassified Items”. From 1998 to 1999, however, capital account balance started to become nil and started to decrease. This is so because capital transfers are already virtually non- existent. The country is generating so much bad news in terms of investment favorability under the Estrada Administration and impending civil and political unrest exacerbated this situation. Investor confidence is at its lowest at this time. Government debt already reached staggering heights, thus, the government started effecting a CYL BRYAN A.

This forced debt management, according to the Bureau of Treasury of the Philippines, enabled the Philippines to stopped borrowing from World Bank on commercial terms, re-structure its old loans and rely heavily on Official Development Assistance from various Foreign Government and Institution which offers a lower interest rates and longer terms. To further examine the changes that affected this BoP over time, Chart B explains the changes in the current account of the country. As we Chart B can see, from 1983, the country‟s balance on goods (blue line) continues to Current Account (83-06) 800000.00 increase in the negative side of the scale until 1997. This paints a clear picture of the growing deficit of the country from its exports and imports. 600000.00 Factors contributing to this increasing deficit are not mainly attributable to the local political turmoil that the country was in, but also its trade driven 400000.00 Balance on Goods economic growth which became a victim of the globalization of tariffs and trade agreements.

Added to this is the continuous -400000.00 depreciation of peso to the dollar thus making importation so costly yet exports income cannot tide over the import expenditures. -600000.00 In 1999, after the Asian Financial Crisis, the World Bank forced the government of the Philippines to adopt fiscal and austerity measures resulting to the sudden reversal of the Balance on Goods. However, the World Bank intervention made even the country‟s current account look worse. Prior to the World Bank Intervention, the previous Balance on Other Goods, Services and Income (red line) which traversed the positive side of the scale now finds itself on the deficit side while the sudden reversal on the Balance on Goods return to its previous decreasing state (or increasing deficit). The Unrequited Goods, the account that refers to the transfer of assets from one country to another without expecting for recompense such as foreign aid grants, became increasingly bigger and bigger from its previous minimal state. This signals the increasing dependency of the country to Foreign Grants. To further understand the increase of deficit on the Balance of Goods, Chart C will Chart C provide us the clear picture of trends from 1993 to present. It would seems that the Balance Exports and Imports on Goods only appear from 1989 and became persistent to 1997. This period signals the 3000000.00 transition of the country‟s economic structure to exportation of primary products to manufacturing sector of which materials are also imported primarily from other countries, 2000000.00 such as Japan. This is also the period where the country was plagued by several coup de „etat 1000000.00 and was suffering from power shortage in form of long power black-outs.

Also contributing to this change of Balance of Payment is the very fluid Chart D and volatile movement of the Portfolio Investment (red line) and Other Capital (Financial ) Account Investments (green line) as shown in Chart D which comprises the Capital 300000.00 or Financial Account side of the BoP.

Contributing also on these which also affects the volatility of these investments are the also volatile exchange risk rate, interest rate risk, equity and commodity price risk, etc which are part and parcel of unregulated stock market in the Philippines and liberalized stock trading market in the world due to the globalization and liberalization of the said market. In this arrangement, almost always, Developing Countries, such as the Philippines is on the losing end. In summary, the Philippines BoP changes over time can be attributed and linked to several factors. Definitely, it‟s Economic Policy which focuses more on economics of quantity rather than economics of quality and its failure to utilize fully its comparative advantage played a vital role in advancing its dream of a balance BoP or a Surplus at the least. Political Instability is a key player in affecting changes in its economic account with the world. Sound macro and micro economic fundamentals also influenced movement in the BoP of one‟s country, thus, the Philippines has a need for this. In the era of globalization, the soundness and strength of the country‟s economic fundamentals must be ensured in order for it to be isolated, or be mitigated, from the sudden changes of the global economic developments such as the recent US debt crunch. Although from 1983 to 2000, it exhibited a dismal performance, recent data shows an improvement in the overall picture. Economic Reforms and Policy Changes has been taking place since 2003 in the Philippines such as diversification of its foreign reserves in its effort to detached its economy from the US dollar currency; its slow decoupling from US and Latin America and diversifying its trade relations with Japan and China; practicing debt management and debt risk monitoring; increased in exports and diversifying its exports to service sector while maintaining its lead in electronics; maintaining its competitive and liberal labor supply to further engage the manufacturing sector of automobile and ship building; etc. What is needed now is to maintain this trend in its recent BoP data to finally advance its dream of economic recovery and progress. 3.

In general though, the two maintain the same separate growth trend wherein both have maintained an almost the same growth rate but on a different parallel path – the gross domestic expenditure above the sum of (Xt + Mt). This would seems to show that the Growth Domestic Expenditures is always more than the sum of the Exports and Imports of the Philippines, thus, almost always, will generate a deficit result there being the expenditures is always more than the net income it can acquire from its trade transactions of goods and services. Year 2002 to 2004 growth rate seems to accelerate and caught up with the GDE. But this is not the case. Marked by so much political bickering and a government operating in CYL BRYAN A.

  • 8. TERM PAPER FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT 2 [ANALYSIS OF INTERNATIONAL TRADE AND FINANCE OF THE PHILIPPINES] re-enacted budget of previous years, it was the GDE that had slowed down on these years. Contributing to this is the sudden restraint of domestic spending in anticipation of the difficult years ahead resulting to low interest rates and sluggard domestic trading affecting the GDP growth. After getting the sum of the Exports and Imports and dividing the same by the Gross Domestic Expenditures, a new index had been generated. I plotted the new index in a scattered diagram (shown in a blue line in NEW INDEX (INDEX OF TRADE DEPENDENCY) chart as shown above) after deriving the values to observe the pattern. It would give the impression that the trade dependency index mimics the pattern of the sum of (Xt + Mt). As had been noted, whenever the new index decline, there is also a decline in the sum of (Xt + Mt). This growth trend of the new index exhibits the clear indication that the economy of the Philippines relies heavily on its export industries imitating the Japan‟s example of relying heavily on “processing trade” or “trade as engine of growth” wherein the country export manufactured or semi- manufactured goods from imported materials. I think several factors led the country to pursue this trade dependence as an engine of its growth and take the example set forth by Japan. These factors are the relative small market of the Philippines as compared to other countries, the relative underdeveloped endowments of the country and the constitutional prohibition to further exploit them, and the abundance of cheap but otherwise semi-skilled labor supply. The slight decline of the new index in 2005 and 2006 does not mean that export and import sector became sluggish on these years. In fact there is a noticeable increase on export and imports in the years mentioned. It should be attributed however to the sudden increase of share to the GDP of massive inflows of Overseas Filipino Workers‟ dollar income remittances affecting the trade dependency ratio as it also affects the GDE/GDP variable. 6.
