For a first-time investor, buying a P10,000 worth of stock, this means paying P10 in tax instead of P60.
00:08
This will encourage more Filipinos to invest in our capital markets.
00:13
This law also removed the documentary stamp tax on mutual funds and unit investment trust funds,
00:20
investment tools widely used by young professionals and middle-class savers.
00:25
The adjustment on rates lowers barriers and opens the market to more investors.
00:31
Additionally, we have introduced a uniform final tax rate of 20% on interest income.
00:38
This simplifies compliance, removing confusion and, in a way, leveling the playing field.
00:45
This law also offers incentives for companies that help employees save for their retirement.
00:51
Private employers that match or exceed their workers' contributions to the Personal Equity and Retirement Accounts, or PERA,
01:00
are now entitled to an additional 50% tax deduction on their actual contributions.
01:08
And at the same time, CIMEPA removes certain exemptions to enhance fairness in our tax system.
01:15
Government-owned or controlled corporations are now generally subject to the same passive income taxes as other institutions.
01:24
From now until the year 2030, CIMEPA is projected to generate over P25 billion in net revenue,
01:32
a substantial sum that can help fund the building of roads, bridges, hospitals, schools, other social safety net programs as well.
01:40
But beyond revenue, CIMEPA reinforces confidence.
01:47
It shows that our financial system is becoming more equitable and structured for long-term stability.
01:54
So let's be clear.
01:55
The reform is not just for the well-off and for the professionals, for the stock traders.
02:02
It is for every Filipino who dreams of better financial security.
02:06
It empowers the small business owner, the young professional, the overseas Filipino worker,
02:14
to start investing their hard-earned money to build a better future.
