LONDON, March 27 (Reuters) - Current banking system
concerns are causing global credit conditions to tighten,
particular so in Europe, rating agency S&P Global said on
Monday.
One of S&P's top sovereign analysts made the comments during
a roundtable with journalists. He added that central banks
raising interest rates by more than expected remained the main
risk for sovereign ratings.
He also said France's planned pension reforms that have
caused social unrest over the last week looked "sensible"
considering the country's demographics and could ulimately be
beneficial for its credit rating.
