The participants consist of 20 local and foreign banks which post their bid and offer rates between 10:30-11:30 A.M. on an electronic monitor where lending rates in pesos are determined. The rates given by the banks are used as their dealing rates or the rates at which they will be able to borrow or lend to the market. Launched by the BAP on 1 February 1996, Phibor serves as an indicator of the banking system's level of liquidity.

Monthly rates reflect the annual percentage equivalent of all commercial banks' actual monthly interest income on their peso-denominated loans to the total outstanding levels of their peso-denominated loans, bills discounted, mortgage contract receivables and restructured loans.
