Moody's has 'negative' outlook for SA

Business Live reports that ratings agency, Moody's has changed South Africa's government debt ratings outlook to 'negative' from 'stable' because of a perception of higher political risks and constrained public finances.

The negative rating applies to the country's A1 foreign currency debt ceiling and its A3 foreign currency deposit ceiling.
