The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) said Monday it will continue delivering public services on Fridays while supporting the government’s energy conservation efforts.
Onsite cash operations at the BSP head office in Manila, the Security Plant Complex in Quezon City and various regional offices and branches will remain open Mondays through Fridays from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., the BSP said in a public advisory.
It said the decision ensures that essential financial logistics and currency exchanges remain accessible to the public despite broader shifts in government working schedules.
The BSP confirmed that onsite transactions for BSP-acquired real properties and the receipt of mails and documents at the BSP Hub in Manila will also continue on Fridays. While many government agencies are adjusting hours to reduce electricity consumption, the BSP said it will maintain its physical presence to ensure the stability of the financial system.
The BSP Store will also continue servicing purchases of commemorative coins and other central bank merchandise via its online facility.
