ZURICH – The Swiss National Bank raised its policy interest rate by 25 basis points on Thursday as the central bank pressed ahead with its campaign to dampen stubborn inflation and left the door open for more tightening. The SNB increased its policy rate and the rate it charges on sight deposits to 1.75 percent from the 1.5 percent level set in March, its fifth increase in a row since the bank started its hiking cycle last year. The increase, in line with forecasts in a Reuters poll, meant Swiss interest rates were now at their highest level since April 2002.

WASHINGTON—President Marcos' initiative to tap nuclear energy as the Philippines' new major source of electricity has received the backing of another American company, which proposed the use of micro modular reactors (MMR) to put an end to supply shortages and outages such as the hours-long brownouts now happening in Occidental Mindoro. The first half of the President's five-day working visit in the United States proved fruitful as the Philippines secured a slew of investment proposals, including a $3-billion financing package through the US Trade and Development Agency to build ports, railways and other public transport systems.
