Remittances Sustain Rise

Remittances from overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) continue to climb, hitting the highest level in six months in June amid further global economic reopening, although at a slower pace than the double-digit growth recorded in April and May, according to the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas. BSP Governor Benjamin Diokno said personal remittances increased by 7.3 percent to $2.94 billion in June from $2.74 billion in the same month last year as land and sea-based workers sent more money to their families back home.
