BANGKO SENTRAL NG PILIPINAS

2020 present

The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) has introduced a new logo in keeping with the
changing times. In contrast to the stylized eagle profile design of the current logo, the new
one features a full-bodied Philippine eagle rendered in gold, taking inspiration from various
wildlife photographs of actual Philippine eagles. The use of the Philippine eagle in the new
logo is intended to represent the BSP as well as the Filipino people which it serves.
DESIGN ELEMENTS:

GOLDEN PHILIPPINE EAGLE. The logo employs a photorealistic rendering of a Philippine

eagle in flight, signifying the strength of leadership and foresight that the BSP provides in
the financial sector and the economy.
1. The eagle's outstretched wings and tail feathers symbolize the BSP's balanced,
inclusive approach to growth and development, while also conveying the central
monetary authority's mastery over its field.
2. The eagle's head and eyes face east, expressing the BSP's vigilance and readiness
to seize challenges and opportunities that rise over the horizon.
3. The talons represent the strong will, resolve, and the monetary and financial tools
that the central bank uses in discharging its mandates.
 
SHAPE . The logo is contained within a perfect circle—without sides, a beginning, or an
end—accentuated by a bold border, to convey the singular and integrative nature of the
BSP and its impartial approach to holistic growth and development.
 
GOLDEN STARS. The three golden stars represent the three pillars of central banking
(price stability, stable banking system, and a safe and efficient payments and settlements
system), as well as the BSP's commitment to promote and sustain a high quality of life for
all Filipinos, across Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.
 
CORPORATE TEXT. The name of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas is rendered in gold,
using a clean sans-serif font, to signify the Bank's operational efficiency, clarity of vision,
and single-mindedness of purpose.
 
DOMINANT COLORS. Yellow gold and midnight blue dominate the new logo’s color scheme to evoke the
BSP’s stature as a premier government agency.
1. The yellow gold foreground elements represent the BSP's aim to promote economic
growth and prosperity, and the high standards of ethics and performance it holds.
2. The two-tone midnight blue background is evocative of the honor, dignity, and noble
character of the Filipino people, and the BSP's unwavering commitment to serve the
nation

is a perfect round shape in blue that features three gold stars and a stylized Philippine eagle
rendered in white strokes. These main elements are framed on the left side with the text
inscription “Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas” underscored by a gold line drawn in half circle. The
right side remains open, signifying freedom, openness, and readiness of the BSP, as
represented by the Philippine eagle, to soar and fly toward its goal. Putting all these elements
together is a solid blue background to signify stability.
Principal Elements:
1. The Philippine Eagle, our national bird, is the world’s largest eagle and is a symbol of
strength, clear vision and freedom, the qualities we aspire for as a central bank.
2. The three stars represent the three pillars of central banking: price stability, stable banking
system, and a safe and reliable payments system. It may also be interpreted as a geographical
representation of BSP’s equal concern for the impact of its policies and programs on all
Filipinos, whether they are in Luzon, Visayas or Mindanao.

Colors
1. The blue background signifies stability.
2. The stars are rendered in gold to symbolize wisdom, wealth, idealism, and high
quality.
3. The white color of the eagle and the text for BSP represents purity, neutrality, and
mental clarity.
Font or Type Face
Non-serif, bold for “BANGKO SENTRAL NG PILIPINAS” to suggest solidity, strength,
and stability. The use of non-serif fonts characterized by clean lines portrays the no-
nonsense professional manner of doing business at the BSP.
Shape
Round shape to symbolize the continuing and unending quest to become an excellent
monetary authority committed to improve the quality of life of Filipinos. This round shape
is also evocative of our coins, the basic units of our currency.

1993–2017

Starting on July 3, 1993, during the Ramos administration, the name "Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas"
became its official name as a result of the New Central Bank Act of 1993.

This logo was concurrently used with the 2010 logo until 2017 as it continued to be used on
banknotes and coins until 2013 and 2017, respectively, even after the introduction of the 2010 logo
on June 28, 2010. It was also used on its headquarters in Manila and Security Plant Complex in
Quezon City until 2012.
