The Philippine Stock Exchange has agreed to shorten its daily trading session during the month-long lockdown of Metro Manila to contain the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
From March 16 to April 14, trading at the PSE will close at 1pm instead of 330pm, the PSE said in a memorandum issued on Sunday.
PSE president Ramon Monzon said this call was “consistent with COVID19 preventive measures implemented by the government, particularly the Metro Manila-wide curfew.”
