S&P noted: ‘On March 8, 2023, we revised the outlook on our long-term rating on South Africa to stable from positive on weakening economic growth amid severe electricity cuts. We do not rate financial institutions in South Africa above the foreign currency sovereign ratings, given the direct and indirect impact that sovereign distress would have on domestic banks' operations. As a result, we revised the outlooks on our global scale ratings on five financial institutions to stable from positive, while affirming all global and national scale ratings on eight financial institutions’.
