Peruvian consumers face uncertainty regarding future economic policy, inflation control, and purchasing power. A Fujimori victory may signal market-friendly policies but raises concerns about democratic institutions, while a Sánchez victory could trigger capital flight and currency volatility affecting import prices and household costs.
