S&P Global Ratings has revised Oman’s outlook to positive and affirmed its ratings at 'BB', in light of improving fiscal performance.
S&P said in its credit rating report on the Sultanate issued Saturday, that the revised outlook came as a result of the reform measures undertaken by the government in the financial and economic areas that may contribute to strengthening Oman’s fiscal position in a better way than the agency expects, adding a greater degree of resilience of the national economy against oil price shocks.
