Peru's decision to contract PWPW in Warsaw for this series reflects a broader shift among Latin American central banks toward European security printers following capacity and quality concerns with regional suppliers in the mid-2010s. PWPW has held a growing portfolio of Latin American contracts since roughly 2010, though Peru is among the more notable clients given the volume involved.
The watermark-only security specification listed here is almost certainly incomplete — the full P#200 series incorporates additional features not captured in this catalog record.
