FX.co ★ Peru’s Trade Surplus Narrows in September 2026, Slipping from August Peak

Peru’s trade balance surplus eased in September 2026, slipping to 3,948 million from 4,624 million recorded in August 2026. The latest figures, updated on 13 November 2026, indicate a moderation after the strong performance seen in the previous month.

The data suggest that while Peru continues to post a solid trade surplus, the momentum observed in August has cooled. The September reading marks a notable decline from the prior peak, signaling a potential shift in external demand dynamics or export and import flows as the third quarter drew to a close.

Investors and analysts will likely watch upcoming releases closely to determine whether September’s pullback proves temporary or marks the start of a broader softening in Peru’s trade performance heading into the final months of 2026.
