Elmer Cuba, Peru's newly sworn-in Minister of Economy and Finance, has begun appointing key officials to his economic team.
The appointments come just one day after Cuba took office, marking the initial steps in shaping the fiscal and economic policy agenda for the incoming administration of President Keiko Fujimori.
According to local media reports, Cuba is actively determining which advisors and department heads will accompany him in leading the ministry's operations.
The formation of this core team is critical for investors and market participants seeking clarity on the new government's approach to fiscal discipline, public spending, and economic growth strategies.
Fujimori was inaugurated on July 28, 2026, following a narrow victory in the runoff election.
Her five-year term begins with significant expectations for economic stability and policy continuity.
