S & P preparing UK rating revisions

Rating agency S & P Global Ratings said today that is preparing to revise the highest credit rating of Britain after the country voted for withdrawal from the EU. Recall, 52 percent of Britons preferring to leave the EU.

"S & P will notify the country in 24 hours that will reduce the rating at least one notch, from" AAA, "" - said Moritz Kramer, a spokesman for S & P. Recall, the other major rating agencies, namely Fitch Ratings and Moody 's Investors Service, have already revised their ratings.

Earlier Kremer has warned this week that the decision to withdraw from the trade bloc would lead to a rather sad end, against which the UK will lose the highest rating. Meanwhile, the head of the Bank of England said that Brexit is the biggest risk to the country's domestic financial stability, which could lead to a recession.
