Swiss Investors Lead Record Investment Into The Philippines

Switzerland has just stunned global markets by emerging as the Philippines’ number one source of foreign investment pledges. In a historic shift, Swiss investors committed a massive ₱289 billion in 2024—more than half of all foreign investment pledges received by the country for the year.

This video breaks down how a small, landlocked European nation became the Philippines’ biggest foreign backer, why this happened now, and where the money is expected to go. From renewable energy megaprojects to advanced manufacturing facilities, these pledges target the foundations of a modern Philippine economy.

We also explain the crucial difference between investment pledges and actual foreign direct investment, and why this Swiss commitment is still a powerful vote of confidence despite global investment slowing elsewhere. If converted successfully, this could mean lower electricity costs, better jobs, and a stronger industrial base for the Philippines.

This is more than a headline—it’s a signal that the global “smart money” is watching the Philippines closely.
