Philippine Central Bank Adopts Space Technology for Financial Supervision

The Philippine Space Agency (PhilSA) and the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) have entered into a partnership to integrate space science and technology into the country’s economic and financial analysis.

The collaboration was formalised through a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) signed on 27 January 2026 by PhilSA Director General Gay Jane P. Perez and BSP Assistant Governor Pia Bernadette R. Tayag.

This initiative aims to support the BSP’s mandate of maintaining monetary and financial stability by utilising space-derived data and geospatial tools.

The agencies will use these technologies to assess climate risks, evaluate the impact of disasters, and monitor socio-economic indicators.

The objective is to better anticipate risks arising from climate change, particularly their potential effects on inflation and economic resilience.

She noted that understanding climate-related risks requires consistent and forward-looking information, which space technology can provide.

Under the agreement, the agencies will develop data systems to convert geospatial and environmental information into actionable financial intelligence.

The partnership also includes joint research and capacity-building programmes to train BSP personnel in satellite data analytics.

This initiative builds upon a foundational workshop on Geographic Information Systems held in April 2025.

BSP Assistant Governor, Pia Bernadette R. Tayag​ highlighted the practical applications of the deal.

PhilSA will provide the necessary technical expertise and data to help identify environmental hazards.

EUR/CHF slides as Euro struggles post-inflation data

The post EUR/CHF slides as Euro struggles post-inflation data appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. EUR/CHF weakens for a second straight session as the euro struggles to recover post-Eurozone inflation data. Eurozone core inflation steady at 2.3%, headline CPI eases to 2.0% in August. SNB maintains a flexible policy outlook ahead of its September 25 decision, with no immediate need for easing. The Euro (EUR) trades under pressure against the Swiss Franc (CHF) on Wednesday, with EUR/CHF extending losses for the second straight session as the common currency struggles to gain traction following Eurozone inflation data. At the time of writing, the cross is trading around 0.9320 during the American session. The latest inflation data from Eurostat showed that Eurozone price growth remained broadly stable in August, reinforcing the European Central Bank’s (ECB) cautious stance on monetary policy. The Core Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP), which excludes volatile items such as food and energy, rose 2.3% YoY, in line with both forecasts and the previous month’s reading. On a monthly basis, core inflation increased by 0.3%, unchanged from July, highlighting persistent underlying price pressures in the bloc. Meanwhile, headline inflation eased to 2.0% YoY in August, down from 2.1% in July and slightly below expectations. On a monthly basis, prices rose just 0.1%, missing forecasts for a 0.2% increase and decelerating from July’s 0.2% rise. The inflation release follows last week’s ECB policy decision, where the central bank kept all three key interest rates unchanged and signaled that policy is likely at its terminal level. While officials acknowledged progress in bringing inflation down, they reiterated a cautious, data-dependent approach going forward, emphasizing the need to maintain restrictive conditions for an extended period to ensure price stability. On the Swiss side, disinflation appears to be deepening. The Producer and Import Price Index dropped 0.6% in August, marking a sharp 1.8% annual decline. Broader inflation remains…
