Fitch Ratings affirmed Slovakia’s long-term foreign-currency Issuer Default Rating at A- with a Stable Outlook on October 30, 2026, citing the country’s deep integration with the euro area and continued EU fund inflows despite mounting budget pressures. However, fiscal consolidation is expected to lose momentum ahead of the 2027 parliamentary election, with the deficit projected to widen to 5.0% of GDP in 2027 before improving from 2028. The deterioration reflects higher public-sector wages, social spending, defense expenditure, and debt-servicing costs. Still, an average debt maturity of over eight years helps contain near-term refinancing risks. GDP growth is projected to grow by 0.8% in 2026 amid higher energy prices and financing costs linked to Middle East tensions. Growth is forecast to strengthen gradually to 1.8% by 2028, on rising automotive production and stronger investment. Other major agencies keep stable outlooks, with S&P rating Slovakia A, Moody’s A3, and DBRS A (low).
