FAQ
Malta’s sovereign credit rating reflects its government’s ability and willingness to meet debt obligations. It is assigned by major agencies such as S&P, Moody’s, Fitch, DBRS, and Scope, and represents how international markets view Malta’s credit risk.
This page lists the latest rating and outlook actions for Malta, showing when each agency last reviewed or changed its assessment.
Ratings directly affect borrowing costs, investor confidence, and market access. Changes can influence Malta's bond yields, currency, and equity flows as investors reassess risk.
You can explore how Malta ranks globally using our Credit Ratings Hub, which displays all countries’ ratings from S&P, Moody’s, Fitch, DBRS, and Scope.
They indicate the expected direction of a rating. Positive signals a possible upgrade, Stable means no change is likely, and Negative points to potential downgrade risk
Investment grade (BBB−/Baa3 or higher) means relatively low risk and steady market access. A speculative grade (BB+/Ba1 or lower) signals higher risk and volatility, but can attract yield-seeking investors.
