                    [Title] => Peso up on OFW remittances
                    [Summary] => The peso closed at a seven-week high of 55.770 to a dollar, bolstered by strong remittance inflows from overseas Filipino workers, traders said yesterday.


The peso was also supported by the dollar’s weaker performance against most currencies in the region and the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) saying monetary policy will remain cautious despite the easing of inflation in September, traders said. The nationwide inflation rate stood at a 13-month low of seven percent in September.
