MANILA, Philippines — The Philippine economic growth slowed to 5.2 percent in the third quarter of 2024, which may result in a missed target again this year, the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) reported on Thursday.
The result — markedly down from the revised 6.4 percent in the last three months and last year’s 6.0 percent — is also lower than the 5.7-percent median in a Manila Times poll of economists.
