Lowering of foreign currency sovereign credit rating unfair
ST GEORGE’S, Grenada, Oct. 9 CMC - The Government of Grenada has described the decision by Standard and Poor’s to lower foreign currency sovereign credit ratings on Grenada to 'SD' from 'B-/B' as premature.
“Government considers the action by Standard & Poor’s as premature considering the terms of the agreement for the 2025 notes which provide a grace period of thirty (30) days after the due date and the notice duly issued by Government to note-holders before the due date. This 30-day grace period has not yet expired”
In a release on Tuesday , the Tilman Thomas led administration sought to assure investors that it will continue to meet its obligations” as and when they fall due on the Regional Government Securities Market (RGSM)”
