Fitch revises Goldman Sachs rating outlook to negative |
Reuters - May 5, 2010 |
Fitch Ratings has affirmed the 'A+/F1+' long- and short-term Issuer
Default Ratings (IDRs) for The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (GS.N) (Goldman).
Fitch has also revised Goldman's Rating Outlook to Negative from Stable. A complete list of ratings follows this release. The rating affirmation is
indicative of Goldman's de-levered balance sheet, proven earnings power, and
its prominence and demonstrated success in global capital markets and sales &
trading. Additionally, Goldman continues to exhibit strong liquidity management,
maintaining significant global core excess balances. Since the economic crisis
began, Goldman has consistently outperformed its global banking peers; those
favorable trends have continued through first-quarter 2010 (1Q'10). The Rating
Outlook revision to Negative incorporates recent legal developments and ongoing
regulatory challenges that could adversely impact Goldman's reputation and
revenue generating capacity.
