                    [Summary] => Banking giant HSBC expects the peso to rise to 47.50 against the dollar by the last quarter  of 2006, based on the assumption that the country’s fiscal position will continue to improve and that a sovereign credit rating upgrade would be declared in the third quater of the year.    


Jose Arnulfo Veloso, HSBC treasurer and head of global markets in the Philippines, added that interest rates for  five-year and 10-year notes would likely stay at their current levels of 8.25 percent and nine percent, respectively.

                    [Summary] => San Miguel Corp., the largest Philippine food and drinks company, has tapped three banks for a loan that would complete its estimated $420-million buy-out of Del Monte Pacific Ltd, a banker involved in the deal said.


HSBC Holdings Plc, Development Bank of Philippines and Banco De Oro Universal Bank will arrange the financing worth as much as $250 million, the banker said. San Miguel is part of a joint venture to buy Singapore-listed Del Monte, and the amount of the loan will depend on how many shares the venture acquires, the banker said.
