On Wednesday, June 24, the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) closed its trading floor and head office for 24 hours after an employee tested positive for COVID-19.

Despite the closure, trading operations were unaffected as traders could conduct offsite business.

The PSE assured that their business functions would continue normally due to alternative work arrangements.

Contact tracing was initiated to identify individuals who may have been in close contact with the infected employee.
