Moody's Ratings has affirmed Bulgaria's long-term and short-term rating at Baa1 with a stable outlook. The affirmation of Bulgaria's Baa1 rating reflects the rating agency's expectations that Bulgaria's debt and creditworthiness indicators will remain significantly stronger than those of countries with the same rating. Additionally, the Bulgarian economy is expected to continue growing at a solid pace in 2025 and the years ahead, which will lead to further income convergence with countries in the same rating group. Bulgaria's credit profile will also be supported by the expected adoption of the euro.
Moody’s Ratings expects Bulgaria’s public debt to increase moderately in the coming years, reaching 27% of GDP at the end of 2025 and around 29% at the end of 2026.
