New Economic Watch Newsletter Empowers Clients with Timely Insights

In today’s volatile global economy, clarity is power. Recognizing this, EastWest Banking Corporation (EastWest) has partnered with the University of Asia and the Pacific (UA&P) to launch Economic Watch, a weekly newsletter designed to help clients cut through the noise and make smarter financial decisions.

Distributed to EastWest’s high-net-worth and institutional clients, Economic Watch distills complex macroeconomic data into clear, actionable
insights. Each issue covers pressing topics such as inflation, interest rates, and geopolitical shifts, providing readers with both context and strategy.

“Our goal is simple: make economic insights clearer, more accessible, and more useful for clients,” said EastWest CEO Jerry G. Ngo. “In an era of rapid change, perspective is essential.”

The collaboration leverages UA&P’s academic rigor and EastWest’s financial expertise to democratize economic knowledge that was once confined to classrooms or boardrooms. UA&P President John Philip R. Yeung emphasized that the partnership advances the university’s mission to make economic insights practical and widely available.

By combining research depth with financial application, Economic Watch empowers clients to anticipate shifts rather than react to them. It is not just about observing the market; it is about equipping businesses and investors with the tools to thrive within it.

This initiative also underscores EastWest’s commitment to financial inclusion and thought leadership. In a landscape where uncertainty is the norm, Economic Watch positions itself as a trusted guide, helping clients navigate change with confidence and foresight.
