Lima, January 15, 2026 - Peru's economic engine shows signs of slowing down as the country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth dropped significantly to 1.53% in November 2025, as per the latest data update. This figure reflects a considerable decline from the October 2025 GDP growth rate of 3.62%, indicating a troubling economic trend over a year-over-year comparison.

The downturn in November highlights a stark contrast in economic vitality when compared to the previous month and raises concerns about Peru's economic resilience amidst global financial volatility. The data were compiled relative to the same months in the previous year, indicating that the country's economic growth had maintained a better pace in early fall before plunging by November.

As the government and economic stakeholders digest these latest figures, attention may turn to strategic adjustments necessary to spur growth and stabilize the economy. The recent data emphasizes the need for a careful examination of both domestic and international factors that might have impacted Peru's GDP performance, and how these can be effectively addressed in the coming months.
