Peru and Qatar committed to strengthening trade and investment ties

10:34 | Doha (Qatar), Apr. 8.

Representatives of the Peruvian Embassy in the State of Qatar and the Qatar Investment Authority (QIA) held a working meeting aimed at deepening bilateral economic relations, particularly in terms of trade and investment.

Peru's current macroeconomic stability was highlighted during the gathering with QIA Strategic Partnerships in Emerging Markets Director Nasser Abdulla Al-Attiyah.

Similarly, it was noted that Peru's legal framework is conducive to foreign investment, as evidenced by major infrastructure projects carried out in the country, including the Chancay Megaport and the new terminal at Jorge Chavez International Airport.

It was also emphasized that investments from Gulf countries —specifically Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates— are increasingly present in Peru, making the South American country an attractive destination for Qatari capital.

The Qatar Investment Authority (QIA) is the sovereign wealth fund of the State of Qatar. It was established in 2005 to protect and grow Qatar's financial assets and to diversify the economy.
