Peru is currently in the 15th position, surpassing México, Brasil and Colombia, in the Banking System Stability Ranking made by the World Economic Forum (WEF) to elaborate its Financial Development Index 2009.

Meanwhile, Peru ranks 42th in the Financial Development Index, surpassing México (43), Colombia (46), Argentina (51) and Venezuela (55), but behind Panamá (29), Chile (31) and Brasil (34), according to the aforementioned WEF report.

The report also highlights Peru’s non-distortionary tax system (16th) and the fairly good disclosure of financial information (21st) within the country’s banking system.

Peru also ranks first in the agregate macropudential indicator, which measures the macroprudential soundness based on real Gross Domestic Product  growth, deposit interest rate, inflation volatility, and inflation level.
