MANILA -The net inflows of foreign direct investments (FDI) to the Philippines fell by 46 percent in January to $448 million from $824 million in the same month last year. In a statement, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas said the decline in January was due to the decrease in non-residents' net investments in debt instruments and equity capital. Meanwhile, non-residents' reinvestment of earnings increased slightly. 'FDI net inflows declined during the month amid global economic uncertainties and high inflation, which continued to weigh on investor decisions,' the BSP said.
