Dep PM: Moody's keeping Poland rating unchanged 'good news'

Polish Deputy Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said on Monday that the fact that Moody's ratings agency had maintained its rating for Poland was good news for the country. Morawiecki was asked by reporters about the agency's decision not to revise its rating for Poland, despite expectations to the contrary. Moody's also decided not to publish a credit report on Poland last Friday. "It's good news as Moody's, one of the three agencies, is maintaining our highest rating", the deputy prime minister said. "They confirmed it, as well as raising our 2017 GDP growth forecast from 3.2 to 4.3 percent", he pointed out.
