S&P Agency affirms A+ credit rating for Israel
None
Standard & Poor's affirmed its A+ credit rating for Israel, with a stable outlook. Other credit rating companies ranked Israel as A -stable (Fitch) and A1 -steady (Moody's).
Standard & Poor's estimated that real GDP per capita in 2013 will be 1.2%. This number is similar to last year's, but considering the positive contribution of natural gas to growth in 2013 (0.7%), it indicates a weakening of economic activity. (Meirav Crystal)
