Bank loans fell in June as manufacturers held back on investments amid the highest interest rate in four years.


Loans by commercial banks dropped 0.6 percent to P1.58 trillion, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) said.


It was the second slide in four months. Lending also fell in March. Loans to manufacturers, which made up a quarter of the total, declined 7.1 percent.


The BSP last week held its key interest rate at the highest since 1992 for a 10th meeting.
