    The economy of the Philippines is the 13th biggest economy in Asia and the 33nd biggest economy in the world by buying power parity as asserted by the International Monetary Fund in 2010. It was the 4th biggest economy in South East Asia. A freshly industrialized appearing market economy, it dispatched a genuine GDP development rate of 5.3% in 2006 and 7.1% in 2007. Growth slowed down to 3.8% in 2008 as a outcome of the international economic crisis. In 2009, the genuine development rate was 0.9%. The Philippine economy increased by 7.6% in 2010, which some accounts recounted as the fastest development in 34 years.

    Important sectors of Philippine industry encompass food processing, textiles and garments, and electronics assembly. Most industries are intensified in the built-up localities round Metro Manila, while Metro Cebu is furthermore evolving an affinity for foreign and localized investors. Mining also has large promise in the Philippines, which possesses important reserves of chromite, nickel, and copper. As of 2008 it was described to be graded as one of the five most mineral-rich nations in the world by the Fraser Institute, with the Philippine Government approximating inorganic riches at $1 trillion, although with investment being disappointed by excessive and slow regulatory methods, along with regulations that give localized authorities important power over the exploitation of inorganic resources. Recent natural gas finds off the isles of Palawan add to the country's geothermal, hydro, coal, and oil investigation power reserves.
