Peru
Peru is a priority country for SECO's economic cooperation and development efforts and Switzerland's third most important trade partner in Latin America. With a rich history of political complexity and economic growth, Peru still faces significant challenges in a rapidly changing global landscape, including persistent poverty and inequality, high informality, the impact of climate change and the need to strengthen public institutions for sustainable development. The Cooperation Programme 2025-2028 aims to support Peru's sustainable economic growth by aligning with OECD standards and ensuring that development is effective, inclusive and responsive to the country's unique challenges.
