Standard & Poor’s upgrades the Netherlands’ sovereign credit rating to AAA

Standard & Poor's Ratings Services raised the Netherlands' sovereign credit rating to AAA from AA+ on Friday. The outlook is stable.

"The upgrade reflects our view of the strengthening of the economic recovery in the Netherlands, with domestic demand growing strongly as a result of increases in real disposable income, employment, and investment activity," the agency said.

S&P expects the economy to continue to recover.

The agency lowered the Netherlands' credit rating in 2013.
