Political outlook

02/02/2024

Lower perception of political risks for 2024, although management problems persist


By 2024, the political scenario begins with less turbulence and a perception of lower risks for the business environment.

A survey by the SAE de APOYO Consultoría, carried out from January 2 to 9 with 31 political analysts, reveals a significant decrease in political risk during the last year. For the consensus of analysts, the probability of the occurrence of critical events that could alter the continuity of the Government has decreased. For example, the possibility of calling general elections fell from 42% to 13% between March 2023 and January 2024, the probability of a vacancy or resignation of President Boluarte fell from 32% to 18%, and the risk of a social upheaval, similar to that of January 2023, was reduced from 47% to 15%.

OUR PERSPECTIVE

Changes in the Cabinet have strengthened the alliance with Congress amid a context of growing institutional weakness.

The Government’s main allies, Fuerza Popular and APP, leveraged the crisis triggered by the murder of 13 mine workers in Pataz to strengthen their influence over ministerial appointments.

Economic growth likely remained steady at the beginning of Q2 and is becoming increasingly broad-based, despite the uncertain external environment.

So far this year, the economic recovery appears to have consolidated, with growth becoming more broad-based. Domestic demand has shown solid performance.

The serious deterioration in the conduct of economic policy in the United States would impact Peru's economic growth mainly in 2026.

In the first quarter of the year, economic growth remained solid (3.6%). This was the result of a combination of favorable dynamics for GDP.
