According to the INEI (Peru’s National Institute of Statistics and Information), economic growth of 5.02% was achieved in 2013, driven by positive results across a number of sectors, especially the construction, financial and fishing industries. The construction sector grew by 8.56% in 2013, its twelfth year of accumulated growth. The industry was boosted by infrastructure work, commercial centres and housing.
