Business leaders warn Peru risks economic stagnation without immediate action on citizen security, state reform, and deregulation in the first 100 days of the new administration. Peru's geographic position and commodity prices create growth potential of 5-7%, but infrastructure gaps, social inequality, and housing deficits threaten to undermine private investment confidence.

Business elite asserting influence over incoming government agenda; tension between private sector demands for neoliberal reforms and political polarization limiting policy implementation; Peru's geopolitical positioning as Pacific-facing economy strengthens leverage with Asia-Pacific investors.
Similar to 1990s Peru under Fujimori when business community pushed for neoliberal reforms amid security crises; current polarization echoes pre-2016 institutional instability periods.

Consumers face continued economic uncertainty and potential slowdown if insecurity persists and public services remain inefficient. Delayed infrastructure projects limit job creation and productivity gains. Fiscal pressures may lead to higher inflation or reduced public services.
Incoming government should prioritize: (1) comprehensive security reforms to reduce resource diversion, (2) state restructuring to eliminate corruption, (3) deregulation to ease business operations, (4) completion of S/75 billion in stalled infrastructure projects, and (5) fiscal discipline against congressional spending pressures. Political polarization must decrease to enable long-term economic planning.
