The Philippines is positioning itself for a larger role in the US’ critical minerals supply chain, with fresh details expected as both sides prepare for a bilateral strategic dialogue next week, Philippine Ambassador to the US Jose Manuel Romualdez said.
Foreign direct investments (FDIs) into the Philippines reached a net US$897 million in November 2025, lifting total inflows for the first eleven months of the year to US$7.1 billion. The increase shows that foreign investors continue to put new money into the country despite global uncertainty.
