22.10.2010

JCRA has affirmed its BBB rating on the foreign currency long-term senior debts and its BBB+ rating on the local currency long-term senior debts of the Republic of Bulgaria.

The ratings are primarily based on the country\'s prudent fiscal policy that has led up to a substantial reduction of the government debt and accumulation of large fiscal reserves, its maintenance of the solid currency board arrangement and its expanded production capacity rendered by massive inflows of EU subsidies and foreign direct investment (FDI).

The Japanese rating agency revised the rating outlook to stable from negative. According to JCR the country\'s external position has been improved through a significant reduction of the current account deficit and a moderate cutback on the short-term external debt. The minority government has sustained the currency board arrangement and has been promoting the fiscal consolidation, judicial reforms and fight against corruption with the cooperation of the right-wing opposition parties. On top of a robust export growth, the economy is highly likely to continue its recovery to register a growth rate higher than 2% in 2011 on a pickup of domestic demand, points out the rating agency in its analysis. This favourable economic development may help the government cut its fiscal deficit to less than 3% of GDP in 2011.
