Regional players

• Gestión: Gestión is Peru's leading business daily newspaper covering economics, finance, and politics. Comparable to Caretas as a major Peruvian news publication competing for the same politically and economically engaged readership, though delivered as a daily rather than a weekly.
• El Comercio: El Comercio is Peru's largest newspaper group, covering politics, economy, and current affairs. Comparable to Caretas as a leading Peruvian news brand addressing the same domestic political-news audience, though operating across multiple daily and digital titles rather than as a single weekly magazine.

Direct peers

• Etiqueta Negra: Etiqueta Negra is a Peruvian long-form journalism and current-affairs magazine known for narrative reporting. Comparable to Caretas in its Peruvian footprint and current-affairs editorial positioning, though oriented more toward long-form storytelling than weekly news.
• Veja: Veja is Brazil's flagship weekly news magazine covering politics, economy, and culture, published by Editora Abril. Comparable to Caretas as a high-circulation Latin American news weekly with a similarly broad news/politics remit and significant national brand recognition.
• Poder: Poder is a Peruvian business and politics magazine covering corporate, economic, and political news. Directly comparable to Caretas as a Peru-based current-affairs magazine targeting decision-makers and politically engaged readers in the same domestic market.
• Semana: Semana is a long-running Colombian news and politics weekly magazine covering current affairs, investigative reporting, and national politics. It is directly comparable to Caretas as a Spanish-language weekly news magazine targeting a politically engaged Latin American audience with a similar editorial mix and distribution model.
• Proceso: Proceso is a major Mexican weekly news magazine focused on politics, investigative journalism, and current affairs. It mirrors Caretas in its weekly print cadence, politics-led editorial positioning, and reliance on long-form investigative reporting to differentiate from daily newspapers.

Broad incumbents

• Newsweek: Newsweek is a long-running US weekly news magazine now operating primarily as a digital publication. Comparable to Caretas as a heritage weekly news brand that has had to navigate the print-to-digital transition facing all legacy newsweeklies.
• TIME Magazine: TIME is an iconic US-based weekly news magazine covering politics, world affairs, and culture. Comparable to Caretas as a heritage news-weekly in the same product category, though serving a much larger English-language global audience.
• The Economist: The Economist is a global weekly news and politics magazine with deep coverage of Latin America. Comparable to Caretas as a benchmark news-weekly in the same product category, though operating at much greater global scale and with a broader international readership.
