由于出口增加而进口下降,菲律宾的贸易逆差从去年同期的47亿美元缩小到2025年5月的33亿美元。受黄金(102.2%)、其他制成品(70.6%)和铜精矿(67.6%)销售增长的推动,出口同比增长15.1%,达到73亿美元。美国的出口份额最大(15.3%),其次是香港(15.2%)、日本(14.3%)和中国(10.2%)。与此同时,进口下降4.4%,至106亿美元,主要原因是矿物燃料、润滑油和相关材料(-39.6%)、谷物和谷物制剂(-16.4%)以及钢铁(-12.2%)的采购减少。中国仍然是最大的进口来源国,占进口总额的29.7%,其次是印度尼西亚(8.5%)、日本(7.6%)和韩国(6.4%)。考虑到今年前五个月,贸易逆差降至197亿美元,而去年同期为207亿美元。
The Philippines’ trade deficit narrowed to USD 3.3 billion in May 2025 from USD 4.7 billion in the same month last year, as exports rose while imports fell. Year-on-year, exports climbed by 15.1% to USD 7.3 billion, driven by higher sales of gold (102.2%), other manufactured goods (70.6%), and copper concentrates (67.6%). The US accounted for the largest share of exports (15.3%), followed by Hong Kong (15.2%), Japan (14.3%), and China (10.2%). Meanwhile, imports dropped by 4.4% to USD 10.6 billion, mainly due to reduced purchases of mineral fuels, lubricants and related materials (-39.6%), cereals and cereal preparations (-16.4%), and iron and steel (-12.2%). China remained the top import source, accounting for 29.7% of total imports, followed by Indonesia (8.5%), Japan (7.6%), and South Korea (6.4%). Considering the first five months of the year, the trade deficit decreased to USD 19.7 billion, compared to USD 20.7 billion in the corresponding period of the previous year.
