Credit Rating Agency: Moody's Upgrades Greece's Creditworthiness – Poland's Rating Falls

Moody's has upgraded its outlook on Greece's creditworthiness from "stable" to "positive", citing signs that structural reforms are strengthening the country's economic and financial resilience. The rating itself remains at "Baa3". Greece's debt burden is expected to remain one of the highest among rated countries until the end of the decade.

Meanwhile, Moody's has downgraded Poland's rating from "A2" to "A3" due to a sustained deterioration in its fiscal position, with a stable outlook. The downgrade reflects balanced risks at the new rating level and a less effective national fiscal framework.
