BSP: central bank, no retail forex licensing.

Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas · est. 1993
Tier 2Public register

The BSP is the Philippine central bank. It supervises banks and FX dealers, but doesn't license retail forex brokers — which is why every broker serving Philippine retail does so under an overseas regulator. The SEC PH licenses securities; neither covers spot forex CFDs.
