S&P revises Brazil's outlook from stable to negative
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services says it is revising the outlook for Brazil's foreign-currency debt from stable to negative.
The ratings agency says in a statement emailed on Tuesday that it has kept Brazil's BBB- long-term foreign-currency sovereign credit rating and the country's BBB+ long-term local-currency sovereign credit rating
However, the ratings outlook was lowered to negative because of political and economic risks facing the country and the possible impeachment proceedings against President Dilma Rousseff.
