THE PHILIPPINES’ trade-in-goods deficit in March widened to its highest in two months as exports and imports continued to fall.
Preliminary data from the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) showed the trade-in-goods balance — the difference between exports and imports — amounted to a $4.93-billion deficit in March, ballooning from the $3.91-billion shortfall in the previous month and the $4.59-billion deficit in March last year.
