Economy and Finance Minister Waldo Mendoza affirmed that the Peruvian economy is recovering faster than expected and is forecast to grow 10% this year. The most recent indicators of economic activity confirm our conviction on this rapid recovery of the Peruvian economy, he said.
The government official noted that these results come thanks to the fiscal policy measures adopted by the Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF) and the monetary policy actions taken by the Central Reserve Bank (BCR) to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. These policies allowed the productive apparatus to remain almost intact during the pandemic; in such a way that companies were prepared when the economic reopening began, and that is how the Peruvian economy s rapid recovery is explained, he remarked.
