Standard & Poor: Slovenia would hike its rating "if progress on privatization were to reduce the government's role in the economy significantly"

Standard & Poor’s tells Slovenia it would hike its rating “if progress on privatization were to reduce the government's role in the economy significantly, containing contingent liabilities and further contributing to public debt reduction.” The rating company recognizes that “political disagreements could also interfere in planned privatizations in Slovenia as shown in recent discussions on the privatization of the country's largest lender, NLB.”
