Due to macroeconomic stability and a favourable trade
environment, Peru offers attractive investment opportunities across
a wide range of industries. However, despite advantages such as a
robust financial system, the country faces ongoing challenges that
can affect the ease of doing business.
Peru's economy has some of the greatest growth opportunities
in the Latin American region. Despite the country experiencing a
declining growth rate since 2021 that was exacerbated by the
extended impact of COVID (13.6% followed by 2.7% in 2022 and 0.4%
in 2023), the Ministry of Economy and Finance predicts a
significant upturn of 2.9% in 2024.
Peru offers a favourable legal framework for foreign investment
and a business-friendly environment characterised by prudent
economic strategies (World Bank, 2023). Peru's main industries
include mining, agribusiness, fishing, energy, tourism and the real
estate sector.
