### Green Finance Taxonomy Status

Peru does not have a national green finance taxonomy as of May 2026. This represents a significant gap given Peru's role as the second-largest economy in the Andean region and its substantial green bond issuance history. Colombia's Taxonomía Verde (2022) remains the only binding national GF taxonomy in the Andean/Pacific Alliance bloc and serves as the nearest regional reference point for Peru.

### Gap Analysis

The absence of a Peruvian GF taxonomy creates three operational gaps for Origo: (1) No domestic activity classification to crosswalk against when assigning latam\_peru flags — requiring reliance on Colombia's taxonomy as a proxy combined with NDC priorities; (2) No standardized green bond eligibility criteria specific to Peru's LULUCF-heavy emissions profile; (3) No regulatory alignment pathway for Peruvian financial institutions seeking to classify their portfolios as "green" under domestic law.

### Nearest Equivalents

In the absence of a formal taxonomy, Peru relies on several proxy frameworks: (1) Colombia's Taxonomía Verde — applicable to many shared Andean commodities and sectors; (2) CBI (Climate Bonds Initiative) criteria — used for Peru's sovereign and corporate green bonds; (3) IFC Performance Standards — applied by development finance institutions operating in Peru; (4) EU Taxonomy — referenced by European importers of Peruvian commodities under EUDR compliance. The Origo taxonomy uses a combination of these to infer latam\_peru relevance flags.

### Development Prospects

SBS (Superintendencia de Banca, Seguros y AFP) issued Resolución 1928-2021 requiring financial institutions to integrate ESG risk into governance, which could serve as a foundation for taxonomy development. MEF has signaled interest in developing green finance guidelines as part of its sustainable finance roadmap. IDB and GCF technical assistance programs are supporting taxonomy-adjacent work in Peru's financial sector. A formal Peruvian GF taxonomy is estimated at 2–3 years from adoption.
