geovalin Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Moody’s Investors Service says Cambodia has strong fiscal buffers to counter disruptions to trade and growth arising from the COVID-19 pandemic.

But GDP is projected to rebound by almost 6.0 percent next year, it said. Moody’s said Cambodia’s latest credit profile reflected the country’s “solid growth prospects” as well as its “moderate and highly affordable debt burden.” Despite limited infections, the rating agency said the virus outbreak would affect investment and tourism in Cambodia, especially given its close links with China. “Cambodia is particularly exposed to a slowdown in China given their extensive economic linkages,” said Moody’s Vice-President and Senior Analyst Anushka Shah. read more https://www.khmertimeskh.com/50726578/moodys-sees-solid-growth-prospects-for-cambodia-2/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
