Fitch revises Finland’s outlook to negative amid rising debt concerns

Fitch Ratings has revised Finland's credit outlook to negative from stable while affirming its Long-Term Foreign-Currency Issuer Default Rating (IDR) at ‘AA+’.
Finland’s ‘AA+’ rating is supported by strong governance, high income per capita, and eurozone membership, but the negative outlook underscores the challenges posed by rising debt, low economic growth, insufficient fiscal consolidation, and ongoing economic challenges.
