    Philippines mulls $500m+ funding options, likely to become first Asia sovereign in 1998
    THE BANCO Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) is expected to make a decision by the middle of next week on the structure of its prospective dollar fundraising, with bankers commenting that the republic is almost certain to opt for a bank rather than a bond financing.

Bankers say that of the two plans on the table, the JP Morgan-led commercial bank debt exchange now looks to be favoured over a Goldman Sachs/Salomon Smith Barney bond plan.
