The President also called on the BSP and other concerned agencies to further intensify their efforts against counterfeiting and other illegal activities, ensure price stability, enrich banking reforms, and come up strategies to guarantee that public interest remains to be the core of the government’s priorities.
Marcos also said the issuance of the new polymer banknote is “smarter, cleaner, stronger,” which, he said, serves as a response to the pressing public health and safety concerns due to the pandemic. According to the President, the new polymer banknotes are more durable, hygienic and cost-effective and have distinct designs and security features consistent with the principles of currency integrity, social relevance, efficiency, aesthetics, as well as having a unified theme.
