Investment bank Goldman Sachs warns that with a negative outlook and a median rating of BBB-, Panama runs the risk of being downgraded due to the impact of the closure of the Cobre Panam\u00e1 mine, which will likely affect economic growth and fiscal balance from the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Panama runs the risk of being downgraded in its credit rating, the investment bank Goldman Sachs warned in a recent report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith a negative outlook and a median rating of BBB-, Panama is at risk of being downgraded due to the impact of the closure of the Cobre Panam\u00e1 mine, which will likely affect the country’s economic growth and fiscal balance,\u201d it said in a report. investment banking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs recalled that the low performance of sovereign bonds began at the end of last year, after the closure of the Cobre Panam\u00e1 mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA pause in production will likely have a negative impact on Panama’s economic activity, as the mine’s production represented 5% of GDP and 75% of its goods exports.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, S&P rates Panama as BBB with a negative outlook (as of November 7); Moody’s downgraded the country to Baa3 with a stable outlook on October 31, and Fitch maintains a BBB- rating, but revised its outlook to negative on September 29.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this context, Goldman Sachs warns that Panama is in a precarious position facing a possible downgrade of its credit rating, due to a combination of economic and political factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The situation is worsening with the proximity of the presidential elections, scheduled for May 5, and the uncertainty surrounding the future of the country’s copper mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goldman Sachs highlights that a downgrade of Panama’s credit rating from investment grade to speculative grade could have negative consequences on financial markets, increasing borrowing costs and reducing investor confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The investment bank warns that, although the market has already begun to discount part of this risk, volatility could increase in the coming months as the elections approach and more details about the future of the country’s economic policy become known. .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reactions<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Given this report, the Chamber of Commerce, Industries and Agriculture of Panama (Cciap) said that it is necessary for the presidential candidates to present specific economic proposals that allow the country to improve the fiscal situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAfter, in the last quarter of the year, the credit rating agency Fitch Ratings will change Panama’s outlook from stable to negative, this week the opinions of this organization and the US investment bank Goldman Sachs are added, where they warn investors the country’s risk of losing its investment grade as a result of its economic prospects and fiscal balance. Beyond the fact that Panama will actually have lower growth in 2024 (3%), it is worrying that once again the alerts are being raised about the country’s fiscal situation,\u201d the union indicated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
