Disagree

No, the biggest beneficiary of stock buybacks are pension funds and mutual funds

While the Filipino Labor Party might acknowledge that pension funds and mutual funds benefit from stock buybacks, they would likely argue that this does not absolve corporations from paying taxes on these transactions. They might see this as a way for corporations to avoid paying their fair share of taxes.
