Fitch Ratings has upgraded Tunisia’s credit rating to B‑ with a stable outlook.
The upgrade reflects an improvement in the country’s external position, marked by a reduction in the current account deficit and greater flexibility in net foreign direct investment, it pointed out.
Fitch’s previous rating for Tunisia, issued in September 2024, was CCC+.
At the time, the agency noted that continued external support and a reduction in external debt service were expected to allow the country to balance its net external financing by 2026.
