                    [Summary] => The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) said yesterday it will conduct an investigation into the misprinted P100 bills to determine whether the offshore security printing company could face either legal or financial liabilities or both.


The BSP announced last Sunday that it has received a batch of P100 notes bearing the president’s misspelled surname of "Arrovo" instead of Arroyo.


The BSP assured the public, however, that the misspelled batch of P100 notes were still considered legal tender and should be accepted as genuine currency.
