The Economist

Creditworthiness is supported by an established system of dollarisation and a manageable public debt/GDP ratio-just under 40% of GDP-although this excludes contingent liabilities related to turn-key public-works projects amounting to over US$2bn. The government ran a fiscal deficit equivalent to 2% of full-year GDP in the first half of 2013, and GDP growth has slowed from double-digit rates, but economic performance remains supportive.
