Trade union not surprised at ratings downgrade of Denel

Trade union Uasa has expressed the view that the recent downgrade of South African defence industrial group Denel by international ratings agency Fitch was “disappointing” but not surprising. State-owned entity (SOE) Denel is suffering from severe liquidity problems. “Fitch stated as a reason that management volatility may impact the group’s ability to implement its turnaround strategy,” observed the union in a statement on Friday. “With a CEO coming on board and resigning before any rescue plan could yield results, Denel is now looking to a new CEO who is expected to save this already sinking ship.”
