The economy may be clocking impressive growth rates in recent years, but that has led to bourgeoning macroeconomic imbalances that are increasingly under scrutiny.
A ballooning trade deficit, along with rising inflationary pressures are pressuring the Peso, at a time when offsetting factors, such as remittances and BPO, may flatter to deceive.
Given the ever-rising political noise, and global investors scrutinizing policymakers more rigorously, there is little reprieve in store for the beleaguered Peso.
