SAN FRANCISCO – Standard & Poor’s is brightening its outlook for the United Kingdom amid signs that the country’s economy will continue to grow at a healthy rate through next year.
The reassessment issued late Friday recast S&P’s view on the U.K.’s credit rating to “stable” from “negative.” The influential agency also reaffirmed its top-notch “AAA” credit rating.
