This episode tracks three Latin America risk signals heading into the next business week: 

  • Peru remains without a confirmed president after the June 7 runoff, as Keiko Fujimori holds a razor-thin lead over Roberto Sánchez.  
  • The episode also examines why Latin America is becoming more important to the global AI infrastructure buildout. 
  • Finally, the briefing turns to Argentina, where an illicit enrichment probe and related tax-fraud admissions involving Manuel Adorni have become a direct communications challenge for the Milei administration.
