The Mauritius Bankers Association Limited (MBA) has taken cognizance of the decision by Moody\u2019s Investors Service (Moody\u2019s) to downgrade the Government of Mauritius rating from Baa1 to Baa2, on 4 March2021. The “investment grade” of Mauritius has been maintained.<\/p>

Mauritius has been adversely affected by the economic effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, like most countries in the world. As a result, ratings agencies have downgraded the ratings and outlook for several countries, in some instances by multiple notches. The main reasons contributing to the downgrades include fiscal pressures, increased indebtedness, and an outlook that is less easy to assess.<\/p>

In spite of this change of rating, Mauritius remains the only investment-grade International Financial Centre in Sub-Saharan Africa. Banks operating in Mauritius are stable, highly liquid, with comfortable capitalisation levels and buffers.<\/p>

We also note that Moody\u2019s report highlights the \u2018stable political and macroeconomic environment conducive to growth and attracting foreign investment\u2019, forecasts increased trade and investment in the context of the recently signed treaties with China and India, and notes the large stock of international reserves as a significant buffer to external shocks.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
