BSP’s total assets. It follows, then, that the government cannot use
BSP’s money to fund its national projects. The government should

remit part of its annual earnings to the national government in the
form of dividends.

interest payments and part of it will go to the government and can,
indirectly, be used to fund its projects. This is more desirable than
just letting the money “sleep” inside the vault.
