Reitingu aģentūra: Rīgai ir vājš finanšu menedžments

vairs jau nē , acīmredzami

Nesapratāt? Nelasījāt? "Latvijas ekonomiskā izaugsme un stingrā izdevumu kontrole ļāvusi Rīgai sasniegt labus budžeta rezultātus." Tātad Rīgas kredītreitings cēlies, jo cēlies valsts reitings. Tas, diemžēl, skaitās Vienotības nopelns, nevis SC. Cik tādiem reitingiem vispār var ticēt, ir cits jautājums, bet SC te vienalga nav ar lepoties.

in 2006, Standard & Poor’s had Ireland’s debt rated with its top-of-the-line, AAA rating. It didn’t downgrade Ireland until March 30, 2009, long after its financial problems had become obvious, and the price to buy insurance on its debt had increased tenfold from a year earlier. Spain, which markets now posit has about a three-in-ten chance of default or restructuring, also had a AAA rating, which it maintained until January 2009. Today it still has a AA rating, one notch higher than Japan’s. Iceland, the tiny country with the oversized banking sector that came perilously close to national bankruptcy, was in 2006 rated AA+, the same rating the United States now has. Greece, which now appears more likely than not to endure at least a technical default, had debt rated A, lower than most European countries but a reasonably good grade by world standards. It too was not downgraded until January 2009, and its bonds were still rated as investment-grade until March 2010.
