# Peru sets table for growth, cenbank governor says - LatinFinance

> Peru's central bank governor Julio Velarde said at LatinFinance's Andean forum on June 12 that the table is set for growth despite a recent political crisis. Inflation was 0.75% in the first five months of 2018, below the 1% to 3% target, and the sol has slipped only 0.8% against the dollar. Private mining investment rose 36.3% in the first four months of the year.

## Why it matters

Stable inflation, a firm sol and rising exports and investment support Peru's economic outlook, but the story has little direct effect on feed grain, oilseed or livestock prices.
