Peru Economic Outlook. Second quarter 2021

We expect the Peruvian economy to grow 10% in 2021 and 4,8% next year, supported by a favourable external context.

Peru | Understanding the reasons behind the high impact of COVID-19 in Peru

Peru is one of the hardest hit countries by COVID in Latin America, with the second highest number of cases per million and near the top in mortality as well. We estimate that the contagion rate has been declining in recent days, but need to wait and see if the trend consolidates given the reopening of the economy.
