🇵🇭 PSE Philippines Stock Screener — PSEi & Philippine Stock Exchange Quotes

Institutional-grade screener for the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) — the only stock exchange in the Republic of the Philippines, home to a ~PHP 16 trillion (~USD 280 billion) listed market and the underlying venue for the PSEi (PSE Composite Index), the bellwether 30-stock index that anchors every Philippine equity mandate, every ASEAN basket, and every emerging-markets allocation. This actor returns live quotes, market capitalization (in PHP billion), valuation ratios, dividend yields, and sector classifications for the PSEi, plus the broader PSE-all universe of mid-caps and supplemental names, in a single structured JSON payload.

The Philippines is ASEAN's third-most-populous economy, the world's fifth-largest source of remittance inflows (~USD 38 billion/year sent home by ~10 million Overseas Filipino Workers), a perennial 5–6% GDP-growth story, and one of the largest English-speaking emerging markets on the planet. The PSEi captures the heart of that growth story: the SM group (the country's largest retailer-mall-bank conglomerate), the Ayala group (real estate, banks, telecom, water, power), the Aboitiz family (power and conglomerate), the Sy/Tan/Cojuangco/Razon families, and a deep bench of consumer, property, telecom, and bank names. Yet research desks covering Manila-listed equities still pay Bloomberg / Refinitiv terminal fees in excess of USD 24,000 per seat per year to access the same PSE prices, P/E ratios, market caps, and dividend yields that this actor delivers programmatically for USD 0.25 per stock.

If you cover Philippine equities, run a quant strategy on the PSEi, build a fintech dashboard for retail investors in Makati or BGC, manage an ASEAN ETF, or simply want clean structured data on SM Investments, BDO Unibank, Ayala Land, Globe Telecom, Jollibee, or PLDT — this is your Bloomberg alternative. Buy what you need, when you need it, and pay nothing the moment you stop running queries.

Why PHP is reported in billions

The Philippine Peso trades at roughly 1 USD ≈ 56 PHP at the time of writing. The convention used by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), the Philippine Stock Exchange itself, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and every domestic broker is to quote corporate market capitalizations, revenues, and earnings in billion PHP (bilyong piso) or trillion PHP for the very largest groups.

A "small" Philippine listed company typically has a market cap of around 1 billion PHP (≈ USD 18 million). Major blue chips such as SM Investments trade at market capitalizations exceeding 1,000 billion PHP (≈ USD 18 billion), and the combined SM group (SM + SMPH + BDO) is comfortably the largest aggregate equity complex on the PSE. We expose both the raw market_cap_php and the scaled market_cap_php_billion so you can pick the reporting unit that matches your model.

The PSEi — the Philippines' blue-chip index

The PSEi (PSE Composite Index) is the bellwether index of Philippine equities, reconstituted semi-annually by the Philippine Stock Exchange Index Management Committee. It comprises the 30 largest, most liquid stocks across all sectors and includes household names such as:

• SM (SM.PS) — SM Investments Corporation, the diversified holding company of the country's wealthiest family (the Sy family), with interests in retail, banking (BDO), and property (SMPH)
• SMPH (SMPH.PS) — SM Prime Holdings, the largest mall operator and integrated property developer in the Philippines, the dominant force in formal-economy Filipino consumer retail
• BDO (BDO.PS) — BDO Unibank, the largest bank in the Philippines by assets, deposits, loans, and capital — a core ASEAN financial heavyweight
• ALI (ALI.PS) — Ayala Land, the premier integrated property developer behind Makati CBD, Bonifacio Global City, Nuvali, and dozens of other master-planned developments
• AC (AC.PS) — Ayala Corporation, the parent conglomerate of the Ayala group with stakes in Ayala Land, BPI, Globe Telecom, AC Energy (ACEN), Manila Water, and AC Industrials
• BPI (BPI.PS) — Bank of the Philippine Islands, the oldest bank in Southeast Asia (founded 1851) and a Big-3 universal-bank franchise
• GLO (GLO.PS) — Globe Telecom, half of the Philippine telecom duopoly (alongside PLDT), majority-owned by the Ayala group and Singtel
• TEL (TEL.PS) — PLDT Inc., the other half of the duopoly, controlled by the First Pacific group and one of the most generous dividend payers on the PSE
• JFC (JFC.PS) — Jollibee Foods Corporation, owner of the iconic Jollibee fast-food chain plus Mang Inasal, Chowking, Red Ribbon, Smashburger, Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, and (partially) Tim Ho Wan — a global QSR roll-up story
• AEV (AEV.PS) — Aboitiz Equity Ventures, the listed Aboitiz family holding company with major exposure to power (AP), banking (UnionBank), food, and infrastructure
• AP (AP.PS) — Aboitiz Power, the largest IPP-style listed power producer in the country
• MER (MER.PS) — Manila Electric Company (Meralco), the dominant electricity distributor serving Metro Manila and surrounding provinces
• ICT (ICT.PS) — International Container Terminal Services, Inc., the country's largest port operator and one of the world's biggest emerging-market terminal franchises
• URC (URC.PS) — Universal Robina Corporation, the largest branded-food and beverage company in the Philippines (Jack 'n Jill, C2, Great Taste)
• MBT (MBT.PS) — Metropolitan Bank & Trust Company (Metrobank), the third leg of the Big-3 universal-bank trio
• CNVRG (CNVRG.PS) — Converge ICT, the upstart fibre challenger that has been taking share from PLDT and Globe in residential broadband

• GTCAP (GTCAP.PS) — GT Capital Holdings, the Ty family vehicle controlling Metrobank, Toyota Motor Philippines, Federal Land, Sumisho Motor Finance, and AXA Philippines

Beyond the PSEi 30, the PSE-all mode adds the next layer of large- and mid-cap names — additional banks (PNB, ChinaBank, RCBC, UnionBank, EastWest), property developers (Megaworld, Robinsons Land, VistaLand, Filinvest Land, Cebu Landmasters), REITs (AREIT, MREIT, RCR, DDMP REIT, CREIT, FILRT), conglomerates (San Miguel, Alliance Global, Lopez Holdings, First Gen, First Philippine Holdings), consumer brands (Century Pacific Food, Emperador, Monde Nissin, Max's Group), mining (Philex, Apex Mining, Marcventures, Nickel Asia), and transport/infra (Cebu Pacific, PAL Holdings, Manila Water, Megawide, MPI).

Use cases

1. ASEAN equity quants. Pair this actor with our set-thailand-stock-screener, idx-indonesia-stock-screener, hose-vietnam-stock-screener, bursa-malaysia-stock-screener, and sgx-singapore-stock-screener to build a pan-ASEAN factor portfolio. The Philippines is the consumer-domestic-demand sleeve of the ASEAN bucket and tends to outperform when DM rates ease and the peso firms.
2. Emerging-market ETF rebalancing. The PSEi is the canonical reference for Philippine large caps. Use the screener weekly to recalculate constituent weights, drift, and reconstitution candidates ahead of the semi-annual PSE Index Management Committee review.
3. Retail fintech apps. Philippine retail brokerage and digital-wealth apps (COL Financial, BPI Trade, First Metro Securities, GCash GStocks, Maya Stock Trading, Investagrams) need clean blue-chip quote feeds — this actor is a fraction of the cost of premium feeds and integrates in minutes.
4. Bank-sector and remittance research. The Philippines' Big-3 banks (BDO, BPI, Metrobank) plus second-tier names (Security Bank, ChinaBank, RCBC, UnionBank, PNB) are huge beneficiaries of OFW remittance flows. Track P/E, P/B, and dividend yield over time without licensing Bloomberg.
5. Property and REIT screening. The PSE has rapidly become Southeast Asia's third-largest REIT market with AREIT, RCR, MREIT, FILRT, DDMP REIT, CREIT, and more. Filter by Real Estate to capture the full PH REIT and developer complex.
6. Power, water, and infrastructure thematic baskets. Meralco, Aboitiz Power, ACEN, First Gen, FPH, and Manila Water are the listed proxies for the Philippine power-transition and infra-build-out narrative.
7. Consumer staples and food. Universal Robina, Monde Nissin, Century Pacific, Emperador, Jollibee, and San Miguel Food are the public-market expression of the Filipino consumer-staples-and-QSR thesis.
8. Mining and natural-resources tilt. Nickel Asia, Semirara Mining, Philex, Apex, Marcventures, and Petron capture the resource-and-energy sleeve — particularly relevant for the global nickel/EV battery supply chain.

Pricing — Pay Per Event

This actor uses Apify's Pay-Per-Event (PPE) model:

Event	Price
Actor start	$0.01
Each stock returned	$0.25

A run with limit: 10 costs $0.01 + (10 × $0.25) = $2.51. There is no platform-usage markup, no proxy surcharge, and no monthly subscription. You only pay for the data you actually consume.

Compare to the alternatives:

• Bloomberg Terminal: ~USD 2,000/month, multi-year contract.
• Refinitiv Eikon: ~USD 1,800/month.
• Direct PSE data licensing: five-figure annual contracts via the PSE EDGE platform and authorized data vendors; separate redistribution licenses required.
• This actor: USD 0.25 per stock, on demand, no contract.

For a daily refresh of the full PSEi 30, you're looking at ~USD 7.51/day, ~USD 230/month — and you can stop billing the moment you stop needing the data.

Data sources & methodology

1. Primary: stockanalysis.com/list/philippine-stock-exchange/ (with fallback to /list/philippines-stock-exchange/). A single page load returns the entire Philippine listing universe with name, price, market cap, % change, and revenue.
2. Secondary: Yahoo Finance public quote API for .PS-suffixed Philippine symbols. Yahoo aggregates PSE official end-of-day and 15-minute-delayed near-real-time quotes, exposing them under the same schema as NYSE/NASDAQ tickers, and adds valuation fields (P/E, P/B, dividend yield) that stockanalysis.com does not always include.
3. Universe construction: A curated, frequently-updated list of PSEi and broader PSE-listed constituents is shipped with the actor. The PSE-all mode adds mid-cap names across financials, real estate, consumer cyclical, REITs, industrials, mining, and consumer staples — covering most of the institutionally tradeable PSE board.

Quotes are typically delayed by 15 minutes for end-users without a real-time PSE data subscription. If you need real-time millisecond-level data, you will need to license the PSE EDGE feed directly via the PSE or via an authorized vendor — but for 99% of research, monitoring, factor-backtesting, and dashboard workflows, 15-minute delayed quotes are perfectly sufficient.

Frequently asked questions

Does this work for stocks outside the PSEi 30? Yes — set index to PSE-all to get a broader PSE listing universe including additional banks (PNB, ChinaBank, RCBC, UnionBank, EastWest), property developers (Megaworld, Robinsons Land, Vista Land, Filinvest Land), REITs, conglomerates (San Miguel, Alliance Global), and mining names.

Does this cover the PSE All Shares Index, PSE Financials, PSE Property, PSE Holding Firms, PSE Industrial, PSE Mining and Oil, and PSE Services sub-indices? Yes implicitly — the PSE sector sub-indices are made up of constituents that are already inside our PSE-all coverage. You can apply your own sector filter on the returned dataset to recreate any of the PSE sector indices.

Are Philippine REITs covered? Yes — AREIT, RCR, MREIT, FILRT, DDMP REIT, CREIT and others are included in the PSE-all universe. The PH REIT market is now the third-largest in ASEAN after Singapore and Malaysia and continues to expand with new listings each year.

What about real-time intraday quotes? Yahoo Finance and stockanalysis.com both serve delayed quotes (typically 15 min). For real-time millisecond-level data you would need to license the PSE EDGE feed directly via the Philippine Stock Exchange or via an authorized vendor.

How fresh is the constituent list? The PSEi reconstitutes semi-annually (typically February and August reviews, with effective dates the following month). We update the shipped universe on each rebalance.

Are Philippine SOEs / government-linked companies covered? Yes — PNB (formerly state-owned, since privatized), Petron Corporation, and other names with historical or current government links are all in the PSE-all coverage.

Does this work for the OFW remittance research thesis? Absolutely — the BDO/BPI/Metrobank/PNB/RCBC complex on the PSE is the single cleanest listed expression of Philippine remittance flows, and screening them quarterly for P/E, P/B, and dividend yield is one of the highest-conviction uses of this actor.
