The event provided attendees with valuable insights from a leading figure in Peruvian economic policy.

Jessica Dowd Aguirre, Director of the department of Economic and business Sciences, further emphasized Velarde’s impact: ”Under Mr. Velarde’s leadership, Peru successfully navigated challenging global crises, including the COVID-19 pandemic, maintaining monetary and financial stability.”
