29 oct.

\nL’agence de notation a abaisse la note de l’\u00e9metteur \u00e0 long terme et la note des obligations non garanties de premier rang en devises du S\u00e9n\u00e9gal de \u00ab Caa2 \u00bb \u00e0 \u00ab Ca \u00bb, tout en faisant passer la perspective de n\u00e9gative \u00e0 stable.
\nCette d\u00e9cision intervient moins de deux mois apr\u00e8s que Moody’s a d\u00e9grad\u00e9 le S\u00e9n\u00e9gal \u00e0 \u00ab Caa2 \u00bb, et fait suite \u00e0 l’annonce faite par le gouvernement en septembre de son intention de demander une restructuration dans le cadre du Cadre commun du G20.
\nLe S\u00e9n\u00e9gal cherche \u00e0 restructurer sa dette apr\u00e8s que le gouvernement a r\u00e9v\u00e9l\u00e9 des engagements non d\u00e9clar\u00e9s auparavant, lesquels ont consid\u00e9rablement d\u00e9grad\u00e9 sa situation budg\u00e9taire, portant la dette publique \u00e0 environ 97 % du PIB.
\nLa nation ouest-africaine est depuis en discussions avec ses cr\u00e9anciers et le Fonds mon\u00e9taire international (FMI) pour r\u00e9tablir la viabilit\u00e9 de sa dette tout en pr\u00e9servant son acc\u00e8s aux march\u00e9s de financement r\u00e9gionaux.
\nL’agence a r\u00e9vis\u00e9 la perspective de n\u00e9gative \u00e0 stable, estimant que les risques sont \u00e9quilibr\u00e9s entre les retards potentiels du processus de restructuration et les avantages li\u00e9s \u00e0 l’appartenance du S\u00e9n\u00e9gal \u00e0 l’Union \u00e9conomique et mon\u00e9taire ouest-africaine (UEMOA).
\nMoody’s a pr\u00e9cis\u00e9 que ce bloc r\u00e9gional permet de limiter les risques de change et de balance des paiements tout en pr\u00e9servant l’acc\u00e8s aux march\u00e9s financiers r\u00e9gionaux, r\u00e9duisant ainsi la probabilit\u00e9 d’une d\u00e9t\u00e9rioration brutale de la liquidit\u00e9 ext\u00e9rieure\u00a0\u00bb

\nMoody’s pushes Senegal’s foreign-currency rating deeper into junk
\nOct 29 (Reuters) – Moody’s downgraded Senegal’s foreign-currency sovereign ratings \u200bfor a fifth straight time on Thursday, pushing \u200cthem deeper into junk territory and warning that external private creditors are likely to face larger losses than previously expected under \u200bthe country’s planned debt restructuring.
\nThe ratings agency cut \u200bSenegal’s foreign-currency senior unsecured and long-term issuer ratings \u2060to ‘Ca’ from ‘Caa2’ and revised the outlook to stable \u200bfrom negative.
\nThe move comes less than two months after Moody’s downgraded \u200bSenegal to ‘Caa2’ and follows the government’s September announcement that it intends to seek a restructuring under the G20 Common Framework.
\nSenegal is seeking \u200bto restructure its debt after the government disclosed previously \u200bunreported liabilities that significantly worsened its fiscal position, pushing public debt \u200cto \u2060about 97% of GDP.
\nThe West African nation has since been in talks with creditors and the International Monetary Fund to restore debt sustainability while preserving access to \u200bregional funding markets.
\nThe \u200bagency revised \u2060the outlook to stable from negative, saying risks are balanced between potential delays to \u200bthe restructuring process and the benefits of \u200bSenegal’s \u2060membership in the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU).
\nMoody’s said the regional bloc helps limit currency and balance-of-payments risks \u2060while \u200bpreserving access to regional financing markets, \u200breducing the likelihood of a sharp deterioration in external liquidity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
