GUEST - Political analyst, Dr Dale McKinley
The long-standing debate about the power of credit rating agencies (CRAs) has recently received additional attention due to the 2007–2009 financial crisis and the 2010–2012 European sovereign debt crisis. In this conversation we examine the commentary that has come from global credit agencies on South Africa’s economic outlook post the ANC’s coalition decision.
