What this means for families
A monthly euro transfer of the same size delivered noticeably more pesos at the end of August than at the start. Compared with a year ago, the gain is larger still. Families in the Philippines receiving support from relatives in Europe have more pesos to meet rising local costs.
Tip one: check the delivered amount. Divide the pesos received by the euros sent and compare the result with the fixing for the same day in the table. A gap of one peso per euro is a real cost, often larger than the transfer fee.
Tip two: keep a steady schedule. In August, waiting paid off. That pattern changes from month to month, and sending on a regular date avoids guessing.
Tip three: watch weekend pricing. No ECB rate is published on weekends, and some services widen their margins when markets are closed.
For businesses and travellers
Philippine exporters of electronics and food products to Europe receive more pesos per euro. European companies outsourcing services to Manila pay their local costs in pesos, which became cheaper in euro terms. For European visitors to Palawan or Cebu, one peso was worth 0.01404 euros at the monthly average.
