On the day of last Thursday, the Peruvian sol appreciated 0.3% so far in 2022 against the dollar, while other currencies in the region take different directions. This happens in a context of recovery of the United States economy in the third quarter of the year.

Thus, the dollar index recovered after two consecutive days of decline while European currencies such as the pound sterling and the euro depreciated sharply. But despite the appreciation of the greenback, the Peruvian sol continues to strengthen so far this year.

The dollar price has been rising in the world as a refuge currency in the face of the global uncertainty that arises and the rise in interest rates in the United States has caused this trend to be further strengthened, said the general manager of Credicorp Capital SAF, Rocío Coloma.

“The dollar has several components. This currency in the world has been rising as a refuge currency and the high interest rates have made the dollar grow even more”, commented the specialist.

While the Chilean peso registers a depreciation of -10.4% and the Colombian peso of -16.5%.

According to Washington Lopez, CEO of Washington Capitall, the strengthening of the dollar occurs due to external and macroeconomic factors, such as the contractionary monetary policy of the Federal Reserve in the United Stateswhich seeks to counteract the blows of an inflation that has not been seen in the last 40 years.

Thus, currencies such as the euro, the pound sterling and the yen also registered historical lows. And this strengthening of the dollar affects Latin American currencies, which is why, this year alone, in May it was recorded at S/3.60, and now in October it reached S/4.00, with the prospect of being above this level in the next few months.

“It is important to note, from now on, that the situation can get worse, our estimate is that the dollar will exceed the barrier of S / 4.15 or even S / 4.30, that is why Peruvians still have time to dollarize their surpluses or capital so as not to be affected by this depreciation of the exchange rate,” López said.

He added that this look should be medium-term, for people who seek to dollarize their surpluses and not change them to soles in a good time since, if they return to the local currency in a year, they would be executing a loss in case they need to make use of these Suns.
