Rating agency Fitch affirmed Slovenia’s long-term rating at A with a stable outlook. The agency said in a rating action issued on Friday that Slovenia’s rating was “supported by high governance and human development indicators and a credible policy framework supported by EU membership.
” These are balanced against currently rising and high public debt relative to ‘A’ rated peers, the economy’s small size, and slow progress in implementing structural reforms.
