Peru is a South American country found relatively to the East of Brazil. It is boarded by Ecuador and Colombia to the North West and North East respectively. To the South, it boarders Chile while the last neighbor of the country is Bolivia. Several factors make the country quite attractive for business. Both politics, economy and the History of the country reflect a country that has a great ability to respond positively to investment and one where establishment of firms can be quite rewarding. The capitalistic nature brought about by the European conquest makes the economic culture one that is similar to several other countries and thus at least manageable with regards to market penetration and the working of the market itself. These several factors intertwine to support each other in a complimentary network.
Political and Financial Background of the country
Peru is a multi-party representative democracy. It is headed by an elected president who only serves for a five year term and can’t seek immediate re-election. The president however can be re-elected later after a whole five year term elapses after his or her presidency. Bills are proposed either by the judiciary or the executive. The executive power is vested upon the government while the legislative power is exercised by both the government and the congress. The judiciary, like in many other countries, is independent of the other two arms. Besides the central government, Peru as well has regional governments which organize and manage 25 regions of the country. These governments have autonomy from the perspectives of politics, economy and administration in what pertains the subjects of their own matters.
Historically, Peru hasn’t had what can be said to be effective political stability. It has experienced wars with Spain and Chile where in the war of Pacific (1879 to 1883), Chile allegedly looted and brought the economy of the country to its knees. After this duration, Peru got into a dictatorship in mid 1920s and it was not over until 1945 with inauguration of President José Luis Bustamente y Rivero. Unfortunately, he served for only three years before being overthrown and the country got into a series of coups and counter-coups until the 1980 when the last civilian president, Belaúnde Terry, was elected again into office (Hunefeldt, 2010). Between 1980 and 2000, there were conflicts between the government troops and rebel groups with Human Rights issues increasingly becoming a matter of concern. All the way through, however, a fragile democracy still survived. The constitution was changed in 1993. Signs of political stability however have been shown with ...
- Gunnar Myrdal was an active leader in the Swedish Social Democratic Party and served as a Senator and Minister of Commerce. After WWII, he was executive secretary of the UN Economic Commission for Europe.

- The document then provides statistics on the top 10 poorest countries in the world according to GDP per capita, with Malawi ranked as the poorest at $226.50 GDP per capita.
