Diario Gestión is a Peruvian economic and business newspaper and digital media platform operating under Empresa Editora El Comercio S.A. within Grupo El Comercio, the largest media conglomerate in Peru. Founded in 1985 and headquartered in Lima at Calle Paracas #532, Pueblo Libre, the publication covers economics, finance, business, markets, companies, politics, personal finance, technology, and international news with a focus on Peru and Latin America. Its core digital product is the gestion.pe news website, supplemented by the PLUSG premium subscription tier, an email newsletter service, a podcast series, the Gestión TV video platform, and distribution via a YouTube channel and a dedicated WhatsApp news channel. The company also maintains a physical newspaper distributed through newsstands and home delivery subscriptions, and participates in the cross-publication Club del Suscriptor membership program of the El Comercio group.

The business model combines reader revenue (digital subscriptions via PLUSG, physical newspaper subscriptions, Club del Suscriptor memberships) with advertising and content licensing on gestion.pe and its multimedia channels.

The publication employs 101–250 staff and is privately held with no external funding rounds, public listing, or disclosed ownership transitions identified in the available data.
