Fitch rates Philippines bonds BBB

Fitch Ratings said it assigned the Philippines’ proposed U.S. dollar-denominated bonds a BBB rating.

“The rating is in line with the Philippines’ long-term foreign-currency issuer default rating (IDR) of BBB with a stable outlook,” Fitch said in a press release.

The Philippines intends to use the proceeds for general purposes, including budgetary support.
