On 20 November the
agency Fitch Ratings (London) updated the long-term Issuer Default Rating (IDR)
of the Republic of Kazakhstan in local currency (the Kazakh tenge) from “BBB+”
to “A-“, and the IDR in foreign currency from “BBB” to “BBB+”, due in part to
the strong foreign-asset position of the National Fund (Қазақстан Республикасы
Ұлттық қоры). The rating outlook is given
as “Stable”.
