Elmer Cuba
PerueconomistMale5.7Global Dominance: 0.00%Elmer Cuba is a prominent Peruvian economist and partner at Macroconsult, known for his insights on the impact of global economic policies on Peru. In a recent analysis, he commented on the new tariffs imposed by former U.S. President Donald Trump, stating that Peru is the least affected country in Latin America due to its limited exports to the U.S. Cuba explained that the exclusion of copper from tariffs and the higher rates imposed on competing textile nations could paradoxically benefit Peru's economy. He emphasized that while the U.S. economy may suffer from these measures, Peru's economic growth trajectory remains stable and should not be significantly impacted.
