The international rating agency Standard & Poor' s (S&P) Global Ratings upgraded Sofia's long-term credit rating from 'BBB-' to 'BBB', outlook positive, the Sofia Municipality press office reported.

According to S&P Global Ratings analysts, after the local elections in Sofia, there is continuity that will ensure further financial stability and the maintained high liquidity. The international credit ratings agency expects Sofia Municipality to continue to maintain the high level of its own revenues, as before.
