Peru’s economy showed renewed momentum in April 2026, with gross domestic product (GDP) expanding by 3.73% year-on-year, according to data updated on 15 June 2026. The April print marks an acceleration from the previously reported 3.21% year-on-year growth recorded in the first quarter of 2026.

Both figures are calculated on a year-over-year basis, comparing each period with the same period a year earlier. The first-quarter indicator reflects the change in GDP versus the first quarter of the previous year, while the April figure measures growth against April of the prior year. The stronger April reading suggests a positive start to the second quarter, signaling that Peru may be gaining economic traction after a more moderate pace of expansion at the start of the year.
