                    [Summary] => The National Government’s net financing requirement is expected to go down by 31 percent to P150 billion in 2006, from P216 billion in 2005 if the expanded value-added tax (EVAT) will be implemented, a ranking government official said.


Finance undersecretary Gil Beltran said the government will have to lower its financing requirement because of the proceeds that would be realized from the new tax law.


"Our borrowings will be cut due to the drop in the budget deficit if new VAT law is implemented," Beltran said.

"We expect the market to move on a tight range in the coming days with upside rather limited as macro and political overhangs would cap any  rallies ensuing from any favorable news on corporate earnings," a report by RCBC Securities said,
