Forsyth County is one of only three top-rated counties in state
Moody's Investors Service has announced that the outlook on Forsyth County's Aaa rating has been confirmed as stable.
Forsyth County was among the states, counties and cities whose rating outlooks were reassessed due to having been identified as indirectly linked to the U.S. government. Due to this indirect linkage to the U.S. government, the rating outlooks for Forsyth County and many others had been reviewed to determine whether they would be confirmed as stable or potentially downgraded to negative.
"Forsyth County's strong financial condition, as illustrated by Moody's Aaa rating, is certainly something of which we can all be very proud," Commission Chairman Brian R. Tam said. "The county is fortunate to have a dedicated, talented staff and an outstanding management and legal team. Through their counsel and the Board policies that are in place, confirmation of the county's stable outlook was achieved."
Forsyth County is one of only three counties in Georgia with the Aaa rating from Moody's.
