By using a national database at the firm level, we start by empirically estimating the positive externalities of Peruvian infrastructure on private activities’ output. In the second step, these estimates are introduced in a dynamic Computable General Equilibrium model used to conduct counterfactual simulations of various investment plans in infrastructure over a 15-year period. These simulations show to what extent scaling-up infrastructure could be a worthwhile strategy to achieve economic growth in Peru; however, they also show that these benefits depend on the choice of funding schemes related to such public spending. %G English %2 https://univ-pau.hal.science/hal-02937833/document %2 https://univ-pau.hal.science/hal-02937833/file/2018_2019_9docWCATT_Potential_Effects_ScalingUp_Infrastructure_Peru_CGE_Model_JDavalos_JMMontaud_NPecastaing.pdf %L hal-02937833 %U https://univ-pau.hal.science/hal-02937833 %~ SHS %~ UNIV-PAU %~ AO-ECONOMIE %~ CATT %~ UPPA-OA %~ CATT-WP
