German credit rating agency has downgraded the credit rating of Opus Global, a company linked to Hungarian businessman Lőrinc Mészáros. The downgrade stems from uncertainty regarding the firm's future earnings potential within Hungary’s public construction procurement sector. The agency expressed concerns about Opus Global's ability to secure and profit from future building contracts awarded by the state. This rating adjustment indicates increased risk for investors considering Opus Global. The decision suggests potential headwinds for the company as the Hungarian economy and public spending evolve. It raises questions about future profitability amidst shifting market dynamics and competitive pressures in the construction industry. This is the latest development regarding scrutiny of companies connected to politically exposed persons in Hungary.
