Standard&Poor’s was the first major credit rating agency to acknowledge the impressive performance of the Hungarian economy by raising the country’s rating to BB+ on 20 March 2015.

The upgrade was also underpinned by the agreement between the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and the Government of Hungary which, among others, secures lower bank taxes.
