FX.co ★ Philippines Sees Rebound in Foreign Direct Investment to $0.60B in February 2026

Foreign direct investment (FDI) into the Philippines rose to USD 0.60 billion in February 2026, up from USD 0.40 billion in January 2026, according to the latest data updated on 12 May 2026. The increase signals renewed investor interest after a softer start to the year.

The February inflow represents a 50% month-on-month rise in FDI, suggesting that foreign investors may be responding positively to the country’s economic and policy environment early in 2026. While detailed sectoral or source-country breakdowns were not provided, the stronger figure indicates improving confidence compared with January’s more subdued level.

Analysts and market participants will be watching upcoming monthly data to see whether February’s rebound marks the beginning of a sustained upward trend in foreign investment or a temporary uptick within a still-fragile global environment.
