OECD - Multi-dimensional Review of Peru

Multi-dimensional Country Reviews (MDCRs) are the result of a collaborative effort of the OECD and the country under review. Work on this third phase of the Multidimensional Review of Peru was carried out by the OECD Development Centre, and includes the inputs produced by the OECD International Transport Forum (ITF) in the second volume of the MDCR Peru. Mario Pezzini, Director of the OECD Development Centre, and Federico Bonaglia, Deputy Director of the OECD Development Centre, guided and oversaw the review. The Multi-dimensional Country Review process is led by Jan Rielaender, Head of the MDCR Unit and Sebastin Nieto Parra, Head of Latin America and the Caribbean Unit, both at the OECD Development Centre.

The review was co-ordinated by Sebastin Nieto Parra, Head of Latin America and the Caribbean Unit at the OECD Development Centre, and Juan Vzquez Zamora, economist at the same Unit, and drafted by Adriana Caicedo, Nathalia Montoya Gonzalez, Juan Vzquez Zamora (OECD Development Centre) and Aime Aguilar Jaber (OECD Environment Directorate, former OECD International Transport Forum). Deirdre Culley (former OECD Development Centre) managed the participatory Foresight process for the formulation and testing of scenarios and provided inputs to the report. Additional inputs were provided by Benedicte Busquet, Olaf Merk (both at the International Transport Forum at the OECD), Cristina Cabutto, Marina Quenan, Annalisa Primi and Caroline Tassot (OECD Development Centre).

The team is grateful for the insightful discussions, data provided and comments made by Paula Cerutti, Juan de Laiglesia, Ren Orozco, and Agustina Vierheller (OECD Development Centre), Bert Brys (OECD Centre for Tax Policy), Raffaele Trapasso (OECD Centre for Entrepreneurship, SMEs, Regions and Cities), Alessandro Goglio and Veerle Miranda (OECD Directorate for Employment, Labour and Social Affairs).

Various ministries and public agencies provided useful support during the authors visit to Peru from December 2017 to April 2018 as well as throughout the production of the report. The role of the Ministry of Economy and Finance, the main counterpart for this report, was particularly valuable, both technically and analytically. Special thanks go to Pedro Herrera Cataln and Jose Alfredo La Rosa Basurco for all their support. The Peruvian Embassy in Paris, principally Gonzalo Guillen and Elizabeth Flores, member of the OECD Development Centres Governing Board, provided crucial support in the realisation and production process of this report. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Development and Social Inclusion, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism, the Ministry of Housing, Construction and Sanitation, the Ministry of Labour, the Ministry of Production, the Ministry of Transport and Communications, the National Centre for Strategic Planning (CEPLAN), the National Council of Competitiveness and Formalisation (CNCF), the National Institute of Statistics (INEI) as well as the Supervisory Authority of Investments on Public Transport Infrastructure (OSITRAN) also contributed significantly. Discussions with the private sector, in particular with CONFIEP, academics, in particular GRADE and Universidad del Pacfico, and civil society, Transparencia and Fundacin Transitemos, were extremely useful in the production of the report.
