Scope Ratings downgrades U.S. credit to AA- due to high deficits, rising debt, and weakened governance.
German credit rating agency Scope Ratings downgraded the U.S. credit rating to AA- from AA, citing persistently high federal deficits, rising debt costs, and weakened governance.
The deficit hit 8.0% of GDP in 2024, well above the pre-pandemic average of 4.8%, and is projected to remain high, averaging 7.8% through 2030.
Without fiscal reforms, the debt-to-GDP ratio could reach 140% by 2030.
The agency blames the One Big Beautiful Bill Act for limiting budget flexibility and reducing Congress’s ability to address long-term fiscal challenges.
