Serbia’s Rating In Comparative Perspective

Credit Rating History

 Standard and Poor's – In June 2017, the S&P kept the credit rating of the Republic of Serbia at the level of BB-, with the positive outlook for improving the credit rating. Serbian economy is likely to expand in 2017-2019, on the back of healthy investment inflows - mainly foreign direct investment (FDI) and stronger private sector consumption supported by expanding employment, wage growth, and a stable inflow of worker. It is expected that the current Government will continue with the implementation of fiscal and structural reforms programs. The agency estimates that the CAD will be on average at the level of 4% in the period 2017-2020 and that the FDI net inflows will fully finance the CAD throughout 12-month forecast horizon.  Fitch Ratings – In June 2017, the Fitch ratings has left unchanged the Republic of Serbia credit rating at level 'BB-'. The outlook is stable. The affirmation of credit rating reflects the view that Serbia will continue to implement fiscal consolidation and structural reform program, as well as EU accession talks and the IMF program will remain important policy. The main drivers of positive trend are the improvement in Serbia medium-term growth prospects, further fiscal consolidation resulting in a reduction in the general government debt to GDP ratio and continued reduction in net external debt. Fitch expects the current account deficit to remain around 4-5% of GDP over the forecast horizon and to be fully covered by robust FDI inflows. It also estimates the general government deficit to be around 1.3% of GDP in 2017.  Moody's – In March 2017, Moody’s rating agency has upgraded Serbia’s credit rating to Ba3. The outlook has been revised to stable. Moody’s decision to raise Serbia’s credit rating reflects primarily the successful implementation of the fiscal consolidation program and structural reforms, as well as improved economic growth prospects, recovery in exports, the price stability and further opening of EU accession chapters.
