The President of the Republic Martin Vizcarra on Wednesday affirmed that Peru's economy had experienced a recovery in June, adding that July will be key to setting the course for the reactivation of the national productive activity.
In this sense, the Head of State emphasized that health remains the central axis of his administration, but —at the same time— the balance is sought for the resumption of economic activities and creation of jobs that allow Peruvians to rely on the necessary income to care for their families.
President Vizcarra also stressed that the government's goal is to reach the end of July with a production capacity of 95%.
Reactiva Peru
On the occasion, Mr. Vizcarra highlighted that 93% of companies benefiting from the
Reactiva Peru Program are micro, small, and medium-sized companies (MSMEs).
As is known, the program seeks to ensure continuity in the payment chain by granting guarantees to micro, small, medium, and large companies so that they can access working capital loans, thus being able to meet their short-term obligations towards workers, as well as suppliers of goods and services.
Today's remarks were made in a televised address to the nation during the state of national emergency against coronavirus in Peru.
On this occasion, the President was joined by members of the Council of Ministers. The event was held at the Government Palace in Lima.
