S&P Considers Downgrade for Greece's Debt

Financial World News Update by Equities Magazine

Standard & Poor credit ratings agency has announced that Greece’s national debt may be downgraded as the nation struggles to manage its finances.

The deficit ballooned to nearly four times the amount permitted by the European Union recently, raising concerns both globally and within the union regarding their ability to reduce the deficit.

The S&P says it will make a decision within two months of analyzing additional data provided by Greek authorities about their plan to knock down the deficit.
