Compared to previous days, it reverses the price of the previous session, when it resulted in a decrease of 2.82%, being unable to establish a definite trend in the last dates. With reference to the volatility of the last week, it shows a subtly higher behavior than the volatility shown in the last year's data, indicating that the value undergoes greater changes than the general trend.

The sun has been the legal tender in Peru since 1991 and replaced the inti, which circulated between 1985 and 1991. At first it was also called “nuevo sol” to differentiate it from its predecessor, but by 2015 it is called only the sun.

The emergence of the new sun is understood after the world crisis of 1929, which led to a deep economic and exchange rate crisis in the country, as well as the creation of the Central Reserve Bank of Peru. It was during the first year of Alberto Fujimori's government that the new sun was promoted to balance hyperinflation and reorder the economy.

After entering into force, a sol was equivalent to one million intis or a billion “old” suns; today the currency is divided into 100 cents and its issuance is regulated by the Central Reserve Bank of Peru.

At present, coins of 10, 20, 50 cents, 1, 2 and 5 soles and banknotes of 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200 soles are circulating. Before, 1-cent coins were also minted, but these were withdrawn from circulation in May 2011, while in January 2019 the 5-cent coins came out of circulation.

On the other hand, the exchange rate parity with respect to the dollar and the euro is fixed daily by the agency in charge. It should be noted that since 2014 the Peruvian currency has been in depreciation.

On the economic side, the World Bank (WB) has predicted that by 2022 Peru will have growth of only 3.2% after it had a 13% rebound in 2021. Likewise, by 2023 it would slow down to grow by only 3 percent.

However, experts have assured that Peru could experience a deterioration in business confidence in the face of the uncertainty that exists in the policy and fiscal rules that are intended to be implemented.
