The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) established through Republic Act No. 10625 or The Philippine Statistical Act of 2013, is tasked, among others, to compile and maintain macroeconomic accounts and indicators, at the national and subnational level. At the provincial level, the Provincial Product Accounts (PPA) is a mechanism to measure the economic performance of the province or highly urbanized cities (HUCs) at a given time.
Starting last year, the PSA annually releases the provincial and HUC level economic performances following the identified pilot provinces and HUCs. Cagayan de Oro City is one of the pilot areas for PPA compilation starting 2021.
