KBRA’s affirmation of the ratings for the Republic of Chile reflects the sovereign’s small, open, and diversified economy, and its strong and stable institutions, while sound macroeconomic policies, which centre on fiscal savings through sovereign wealth funds, bolster resiliency. The Stable Outlook balances the strengths of Chile’s economy, its resilience to shock and its ongoing efforts to repair public finances. Chile’s credit profile is underpinned by strong access to liquidity through its deep and captive capital market and the rebuilding of its sovereign wealth funds. KBRA acknowledges that there is a large degree of uncertainty surrounding the political environment and government reform agenda. The Outlook also reflects Chile’s fiscal resiliency through successive shocks thanks to policy discipline.
