RATINGS: Fitch Ratings: APAC Sovereign Outlook Stable despite Growth Challenges
- Asia-Pacific sovereign Outlooks are mostly stable, with adequate financial
buffers and policy space to support domestic demand, Fitch Ratings says.
Nevertheless, APAC sovereigns face a challenging year as slowing global growth
and trade policy uncertainty weigh on exports and economic activity. APAC
sovereign ratings span a broad range of developed, emerging and frontier
markets. This is reflected in the dispersal of ratings from 'AAA' to 'B-'. The
prevalence of stable rating outlooks indicates that the broad distribution is
likely to remain intact over the next 12-18 months.
