InPerú seeks to reactivate investment in the Peruvian market with a 'roadshow' in New York.

After a 2023 marked by economic recession, social conflicts, and a decrease in credit ratings, InPeru is preparing to seek to reactivate investment in the Peruvian market through a roadshow in New York, scheduled from September 3 to 5. In this context, Fernando Romero, president of InPeru, stated that it is essential not to have institutions that become obstacles to investment in the country, emphasizing the importance of building trust and attractiveness for potential investors. In their strategy to present Peru to American investors, Romero explained that they are focused on attracting all types of capital, especially those looking for long-term stability and future projection. He noted that, despite recent challenges, the country has maintained an upward trajectory in its economy and its openness to the global market for over 40 years of democracy, which is an attractive factor for investors interested in a long-term investment horizon. Regarding the factors that could demonstrate Peru's solidity as an investment destination to investors, Romero highlighted the country's economic management in terms of inflation, as well as the willingness to continue opening the economy to the world. Additionally, he mentioned key projects such as the port of Chancay and the importance of having a robust capital market for sustained growth. In terms of sectors of interest to American investors, Romero indicated that mining, the agro-export sector, and tourism are areas that could generate significant interest due to their growth potential and profitability. Projects like Tía María and the Peripheral Ring Road are presented as attractive opportunities for large-scale investments. Regarding bond placements, it was reported that significant issuances have been made both nationally and internationally so far this year, reflecting interest and confidence from investors in the Peruvian market. This flow of investment is vital to strengthen the economy and stimulate long-term growth. When asked about the increasing presence of Chinese investments in the country and whether this could cause concern in the United States, Romero emphasized that the Peruvian economy is open to investments from diverse sources and should not be a cause for concern, as transparency and clear rules are fundamental for all investments. Regarding future challenges, the importance of maintaining institutional stability and ensuring respect for contracts was mentioned, as well as addressing issues such as bureaucracy and the need to streamline investment processes to foster a conducive environment for economic development. In conclusion, InPeru seeks to project an image of stability, growth, and attractiveness to foreign investors, highlighting the opportunities and potential that the Peruvian market offers. With a long-term vision and in a context of economic recovery, the country presents itself as a promising destination for those looking to invest in a favorable and constantly evolving environment.
