The Department of Economics of Mindanao State University Main Campus, in partnership with BSP Cotabato, successfully held a two-hour Public Information Campaign dedicated to strengthening financial literacy among MSUans. The event brought together students, faculty, and young aspiring economists eager to deepen their understanding of the Philippine financial system. Through this collaboration, participants were given direct access to expert insights from the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas.

The session featured distinguished speakers 𝐃𝐫. 𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐨 𝐄. 𝐁𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐚𝐲 𝐈𝐈𝐈, 𝐌𝐫. 𝐉𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐮𝐬 𝐅. 𝐃𝐞 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐚, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐌𝐬. 𝐉𝐮𝐥𝐞𝐞 𝐀𝐧𝐧 𝐆. 𝐙𝐚𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐚, each offering valuable perspectives on crucial topics. Students learned about the BSP’s vital role in promoting economic stability and safeguarding monetary policy. The discussion on digital payments and cybersecurity highlighted the importance of safe and informed financial practices in an increasingly digital world.

One of the most engaging parts of the lecture was the presentation on the first polymer banknote series, where attendees explored its design elements and advanced security features. The speakers emphasized how innovations like polymer currency contribute to improved durability, safety, and sustainability.

The Junior Economics Society and the Department of Economics express their deep gratitude for this opportunity, a meaningful investment in knowledge that promises strong long-term returns for MSUans as they navigate the evolving economic landscape.

Being aware and knowledgeable about the money we handle daily is essential. Understanding the features of genuine Philippine peso bills is the first step in protecting ourselves from counterfeit notes. Each banknote is equipped with security elements, such as watermarks, security threads, and tactile marks, which make it unique and difficult to replicate.

By learning to recognize these features, we can prevent fraud and avoid financial loss. A simple yet effective method to verify your bills is the “𝙁𝙚𝙚𝙡-𝙇𝙤𝙤𝙠-𝙏𝙞𝙡𝙩” approach, which is easy and free for anyone to use. Staying alert and cautious ensures that our hard-earned money remains safe and secure.

Protecting our peso starts with knowledge and awareness—let’s all do our part to keep our money genuine and secure.
