Listen Later

Money Talks is a series on personal finance sponsored by Metropolitan Bank & Trust Co. (Metrobank).

The pandemic has brought with it a newfound interest among Filipinos to participate in the stock market. Data from the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) showed that the average daily number of trades in 2020 soared by 33.7%, while retail participation surged by 47.8%. This follows an increase in online accounts by 19.7% to 936,000, while non-online accounts grew by 3.3% to 460,553. 

In this B-Side episode, Ruben L. Zamora, Metrobank first vice president and head of the institutional investors coverage division, discusses with Santiago J. Arnaiz, BusinessWorld contributor and chief operating officer of health startup Day3 Innovations, why more Filipinos are more willing to “let their money work for them,” as well as how the beginner investor can sift through their options to start their financial journey. 

Recorded remotely on Oct. 13. Research by BusinessWorld special features writer Bjorn Biel "JB" M. Beltran. Produced by Paolo L. Lopez and Sam L. Marcelo.
