Following an annual decline of 8% in 2023, the publisher forecasts the construction industry in Peru to grow by 5.1% in real terms this year, supported by improvements in transport and energy infrastructure, coupled with an increase in the public investments in the construction industry. According to the Peruvian Institute of Economics (IPE), following an annual growth of 9% in 2022, the public investment into construction activity recorded a real growth of 3.1% year on year (YoY) in 2023, to reach PEN50.5 billion ($13.2 billion) that year. Growth in 2024 will also be supported by a 12.1% increase in the government’s budget for 2024, to reach PEN241 billion ($64.5 billion) compared with the 2023 Budget. However, in the short term, the industry might reflect slowdowns owing to ongoing political instability, rising inflation, deterioration in investor confidence, coupled with rising construction material price in the country. According to the Instituto Nacional de Estadística e Informática (INEI), the average construction material price index grew by 1.2% YoY in the first nine months of 2023, preceded by annual growth of 11.5% in 2022.
Over the remainder of the forecast period, the publisher expects the construction industry to record an average annual growth of 3.7% between 2025 and 2028, supported by investments in mining, housing, electricity, and transport infrastructure projects. Growth over the forecast period will be supported by a portfolio of feasible mining projects that includes commencement of the construction works of six mining projects by the end of 2024, which involves a total investment of PEN26.3 billion ($6.9 billion). The government's portfolio of 47 mining projects worth PEN204.4 billion ($53.7 billion) of investments will further support Peru's construction industry's growth over the forecast period.
