International rating agency Moody’s Investors Service has upgraded Tajikistan’s long-term sovereign rating from B3 to B2 and assigned the country a stable outlook, according to information from the National Bank of Tajikistan (NBT), Asiaplus.tj reports.
Moody’s linked the decision to sustained economic growth, stronger fiscal and financial positions, and the preservation of positive macroeconomic indicators. The NBT said the stable outlook reflects expectations that the country will continue to pursue prudent fiscal policy and maintain macroeconomic stability.
The regulator also stressed that the upgrade could expand opportunities for attracting investment, reduce borrowing costs, and strengthen Tajikistan’s position in international financial markets.
A month earlier, Standard & Poor’s also improved the outlook on Tajikistan’s sovereign rating from stable to positive at B level.
