Peru's public budget
doubled in a decade.
Between 2013 and 2025, the Modified Institutional Budget (PIM) of Peru's public sector went from S/ 133.7 billion to S/ 272.5 billion: a growth of +103.8% over 12 years.
Evolution 2013–2026
Each bar represents the PIM for the year. The line shows the execution rate (accrued / PIM) for closed years. The average execution rate improved from 86.5% in 2013 to 92.9% in 2025. The current year appears with a dashed border — its accrued amount is still partial.
The 10 sectors that grew the most

Sector names in this table are kept in their original Spanish form — they are the official MEF nomenclature.
What was the money spent on?
Current spending (salaries, goods and services), capital (public investment) and debt (interest + amortization), by year.
Your department in numbers
Each Peruvian region has its own pace. Compare your department's trajectory against the national average (Lima is excluded — its size would distort the comparison).
Note: Option values in these dropdowns are kept in Spanish — they are the official MEF nomenclature.
The orange line shows the average PIM of the remaining regions (excluding Lima and EXTERIOR — 24 departments). If your line is above it, your region receives more resources than the average.
Seasonality: when does the State spend?
Peru's monthly public spending is not evenly distributed across the year. On average, December concentrates 15.7% of annual spending — almost 3.0 times more than January —, and the first months start at 65% of the pace of an average month. The pattern has stayed constant for over a decade: ten years ago we spent as late as we do today.

- December concentrates ~16% of annual accrued spending — twice what would be expected if spending were evenly distributed (8.3%/month).
- January starts at 65% of the average month due to the previous year's administrative close-out and the freshly approved initial budget.
- Seasonality stays constant: a decade ago we spent as late as we do today. The December peak appears every year since 2013.
