Fiscal Balance in Peru
Peru - Fiscal Balance
The economy likely gathered pace in the fourth quarter, following a subdued third quarter in which economic activity was constrained by a notable weakening in both business investment and public infrastructure spending. Hard data points to an acceleration in economic activity going into the final quarter of the year. Economic activity strengthened considerably in October, as notable job gains and robust credit growth buttressed consumer spending, while non-traditional exports expanded significantly. On top of that, credit continued to grow rapidly in November, while public investment surged throughout Q4, which suggests fixed investment bounced back in the quarter. On the fiscal front, recent data shows that the 12-month rolling budget deficit in November was 2.3%, well below the 3.0% print recorded in November 2017.Peru - Fiscal Balance Data
