Wirtschafts- und Branchenüberblick
Peru is an upper-middle-income emerging economy in South America, with a nominal GDP of approximately USD 289 billion in 2024 according to FocusEconomics/IMF data. The economy is heavily oriented toward mining and natural resources, with copper, gold, zinc, silver, and fish meal among its top exports; China and the United States are its principal trading partners. The services sector accounts for the largest share of GDP (~60%), while mining and industry together constitute roughly one-third of output. Peru is a member of the Pacific Alliance, CPTPP, APEC, and the Andean Community, underpinning a relatively open trade regime. Political uncertainty and periodic social conflict around extractive industries remain structural constraints on investment and growth.

Lokaler Brokerzugang
Foreign investors may access Peruvian equities through local brokerage firms registered with the SMV (Superintendencia del Mercado de Valores). Direct BVL access requires an account with a BVL-registered broker such as Credicorp Capital, BTG Pactual Peru, or Scotia Bolsa. International retail investors most commonly gain exposure via US-listed ETFs (notably EPU) or NYSE-listed ADRs of major Peruvian companies. Settlement is in Peruvian soles (PEN); USD-based investors bear currency risk.

Umzug & Aufenthalt
Investment-Visa / Residenzprogramm
Förderprogramme No formal investment-migration programme
Peru does not operate a formal golden visa or citizenship-by-investment programme. Foreign nationals may obtain temporary or permanent residency through investment under general immigration law (Decreto Legislativo 1350), which allows residency for those who invest in productive activities or real estate, but there is no codified minimum investment threshold marketed as a golden visa scheme.
