Description | Illinois credit rating has been upgraded to “A” category from all major rating agencies, Gov. JB Pritzker announced Tuesday.
The rating of a state’s bonds is a measure of their credit quality. A higher bond rating generally means the state can borrow at a lower interest rate, saving taxpayers millions of dollars.
The latest credit upgrade represents the ninth under the watch of Gov. Pritzker. The state had previously suffered 8 credit rating downgrades between 2015 and 2017 and was atop many analysts’ lists of the worst-managed states in the U.S. |
