Despite recent political instability, Peru has robust macroeconomic institutions that strongly favour business-friendly policies. The country offers opportunities in many sectors. Significant investments in infrastructure and technology are specifically essential for Peru to maintain growth and improve social welfare. The Canada-Peru Free Trade Agreement has further strengthened a well-established and growing trade and investment relationship that in recent years, has seen Canada become one of the top foreign direct investors in the country in the mining sector.
