Peru historically records the lowest country risk in the region, a performance that can be seen in the latest results recently achieved, where it registered 135 PBS last Friday, December 18; the lowest value achieved in recent months since February.



This low country risk contributed to the success of the last issuance of Peruvian bonds in the international market, obtaining the lowest interest rates historically achieved in comparison with other countries in the region.


In the following table we can see the comparison of the interest rates registered for the issuance of bonds in 2020 in economies of the region, where Peru is positioned as the lowest.




1 / interest rate reached in the bond issue on 11/23/2020 for US $ 1 billion over 12 years.
2 / interest rate reached in the bond issue on 05/05/2020 for US $ 1.46 billion over 11 years.
3 / interest rate reached in the bond issue on 01/06/2020 for US $ 1 billion over 11 years.
4 / interest rate reached in the bond issue on 09/24/2019 for US $ 1.4 billion over 10 years.

Likewise, with the 101-year bond issue carried out this past November 23, Peru becomes one of the few countries in the world with a century-long bond, including Mexico, Argentina, Belgium, Ireland, China, Denmark or Sweden. Having the lowest-interest rate achieved compared to those obtained by the other countries in the region that have issued one-century bonds.


 

1 / interest rate reached in the bond issue on 11/23/2020 for US $ 1 billion over 101 years.
2 / interest rate reached in the bond issue on 04/08/2015 for US $ 1.62 billion over 100 years.
3 / interest rate reached in the bond issue in June 2017 for US $ 2.75 billion over 100 years.

                                                                                                                                                                                        Source: International press release.

Peru registered an inflation rate of 2.1% in 2019, considered one of the lowest in the region. This result is consistent with the inflation expectations that would be recorded in Peru for 2020 and 2021. Furthermore, according to the IDB’s Revela portal, Peru's inflation expectations are the lowest in the region, which reduces uncertainty in an economy.


Comparatively, as already noted, Peru has one of the best performances in the region so far in 2020, which strengthens its position in Latin America and improves the perception of foreign investors.
