Peru – Lift off !

秘鲁 – 启动!
Core conclusion · Tlines extraction
Natixis expects Peru's central bank (BCRP) to hike its policy rate by 25bp to 4.50%, with two more 25bp hikes pencilled in for 2026, putting the real rate back inside the neutral range. Headline inflation has exceeded 4.0% since June, reaching 4.55% y/y in September, while core CPI has surpassed 4.0% since April and 12-month forward expectations have stayed above 3.0% since July. Two further 2027 hikes are forecast with significantly less conviction, particularly if oil prices correct lower.
