BSP cuts policy rate to 4.5%, lowest in over three years
The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) on Thursday lowered its benchmark policy rate by 25 basis points (bps) to 4.5%, marking lowest level in more than three years.
The Monetary Board lowered its benchmark lending rate by 25 bps for a fifth straight meeting.
At 4.5%, this is the lowest target reverse repurchase rate since September 2022.
It likewise trimmed rates on the overnight deposit and lending facilities by 25 bps each to 4% and 5%, respectively.
This was in line with a BusinessWorld poll conducted last week where 17 out of 18 analysts anticipated a 25-bp cut at the Board’s last meeting this year.
The central bank has so far lowered key borrowing costs by 200 bps since it began its easing cycle in August last year. It delivered a 25-bp cut at each of its meetings in April, June, August and October. — Katherine K. Chan

House Judiciary Rejects Vote To Subpoena Banks CEOs For Epstein Case
The post House Judiciary Rejects Vote To Subpoena Banks CEOs For Epstein Case appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline House Judiciary Committee Republicans blocked a Democrat effort Wednesday to subpoena a group of major banks as part of a renewed investigation into late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s financial ties. Congressman Jim Jordan, R-OH, is the chairman of the committee.

Thomas Massie, R-Ky., who is leading a separate effort to force the Justice Department to release more Epstein case materials, voting alongside Democrats. The vote, if successful, would have resulted in the issuing of subpoenas to JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon, Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan, Deutsche Bank CEO Christian Sewing and Bank of New York Mellon CEO Robin Vince. The subpoenas would have specifically looked into multiple reports that claimed the four banks flagged $1.5 billion in suspicious transactions linked to Epstein. The failed effort from Democrats followed an FBI oversight hearing in which agency director Kash Patel misleadingly claimed the FBI cannot release many of the files it has on Epstein.

And, of course, if it’s a legal requirement, we would conform to it. We have no issue with that.” Chief Critic “Republicans had the chance to subpoena the CEOs of JPMorgan, Bank of America, Deutsche Bank, and Bank of New York Mellon to expose Epstein’s money trail,” the House Judiciary Democrats said in a tweet. “Instead, they tried to bury…
