Peru’s Congress is revisiting a law opposed by the Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF) that would significantly increase profits within the electricity sector. Proponents frame the legislation as a benefit for workers, however, technical reports suggest limited gains for employees, with advantages concentrated among a small, privileged group. Critics warn the law could decrease investment in the energy sector, negatively impact state-owned companies, and divert funds from Peru’s private pension system (ONP). The MEF has previously raised objections to the bill, citing potential economic repercussions. The debate centers on whether the perceived labor benefits outweigh the potential financial risks and broader economic consequences. This renewed discussion follows initial scrutiny and highlights ongoing tensions between the legislative and executive branches regarding fiscal policy.
