Peru's Business and Investment Guide 2015-2016, created by the country's Foreign Affairs Ministry and the Private Investment Promotion Agency (ProInversion), was presented by the Embassy of Peru in Casablanca, Morocco.
The guide —designed in collaboration with Ernst and Young— was introduced to over 80 Moroccan entrepreneurs and potential investors.
Ambassador Carlos Velasco stressed Peru's economic soundness, its regional growth leading-role, as well as macroeconomic fundamentals present within a framework of stability, democracy and respect for the rule of law.
Likewise, he highlighted the economy's successful impact worldwide and the diverse integration mechanisms the country has joined among them APEC, the Pacific Alliance and TPP.
Similarly, he stressed high credit ratings by the most important agencies such as Moody's, Standard and Poor's and Fitch Ratings.
