Fitch lifts Nigeria outlook to positive on reform momentum
Premium Times NigeriaLO·NG·2 days ago
Fitch revised Nigeria's sovereign credit outlook from Stable to Positive while affirming its B rating, signaling improved confidence in the country's economic trajectory. The move reflects expectations of continued reforms and fiscal consolidation, though the rating remains sub-investment grade. This could support capital inflows and reduce borrowing costs, but the impact on household living costs remains uncertain.
