Roxana Barrantes, Luis Carranza and Pedro Francke in conversation with Fernando Carvallo

Can the free market promote social equity?

Arequipa 2025, 

The polarization of Peruvian society is clear in many spheres, including the economy. Given this situation it is appropriate to wonder whether a right-wing political economy can integrate social policies for the most disadvantaged. Can social equity be promoted with free-market basis? With a general election coming next year, two former Economic ministers —Luis Carranza and Pedro Francke—, and one of the directors of the Central Reserve Bank of Peru, Roxana Barrantes, will talk about these matters together with the journalist Fernando Carvallo.
