The article on Peru rating upgrade is encouraging.
I use Credicorp, BAP, as a sentiment-indicator for Peru investment, and while
being down from peaking in January, BAP has had a relatively steady climb since June.
Considering an ongoing valutacrisis and the prolonged hunger for real assets , I think Peru is one of the hottest candidate for investment purposes for the world leading powers, US, China and Russia.
US and China allready has a free trading agreement with Peru and now Russia, as a new
member of the WTO, is heading for a similar agreement in 2012.
It took the Chinese only one year to settle the agreement in dec. 2009, so Russia would likely have a deal settled sooner than later. Is this good? ...I do believe so...
The three mentioned power-nations hunger for resources could be the catalyst to transform Peru into something that would let the country prosper quite quickly and president Humala would be happy to take credit for it.
Even though politics is unpredictable of nature, there are signs of Peru emerging as an attractive and solid place to invest. My confidense In Kherson's "the perfect storm" is building.
