El Salvador’s sovereign bonds maintain an upward trajectory in international markets, standing out among the most profitable emerging debt instruments. This behavior is attributed to the consolidation of public safety, the favorable investment climate and the economic policies implemented by the salvadoran government.
Securities maturing in 2052, for example, are currently trading above US$106.53, exceeding their nominal value and registering an increase of 0.01%, which reflects a sustained positive yield; last week they were trading at US$97.24.
The upward trend is not limited to long-term bonds: instruments with maturity dates between 2027 and 2054 project an average growth of 2.82% every five days. Analysts link this dynamism to the progress made in agreements with international organizations, such as the recent US$1.4 billion financing negotiated with the International Monetary Fund (IMF), and to the diversification of credit sources. In addition, the reduction in the perception of risk has attracted institutional investors and foreign funds.
The support of credit rating agencies, which have improved the country’s credit outlook, plays a key role in this scenario. These entities recognize the government’s efforts to stabilize public finances, modernize infrastructure and promote reforms aimed at strengthening transparency. This environment has positioned El Salvador as a reliable destination for capital, even in a global context marked by uncertainty in raw materials and interest rates.
Despite the volatility affecting developed and emerging markets, salvadoran debt shows resilience. Experts highlight that Bukele’s strategy, focused on combining fiscal discipline with technological innovation initiatives -such as the adoption of Bitcoin-, has generated a differentiating effect. This, added to the control of crime and the increase in public investment projects, consolidates the image of a country in transformation.
