Saratoga County Receives AA+Credit Rating 

BALLSTON SPA — Saratoga County has been reaffirmed with an AA+ credit rating by Standard and Poors (S & P), Saratoga County Acting Treasurer JoAnn Kupferman announced last week.

This is the fourth year the County has maintained this high credit rating. Saratoga County is one of only three New York State counties to achieve the prestigious rating. 

“This AA+ credit rating is a reflection of the hard work and dedication of our administration to maintain fiscal discipline while fostering an environment conducive to growth and prosperity,” Kupferman said in a statement. “We are committed to ensuring that Saratoga County remains a beacon of financial stability and economic opportunity.”

The AA+ rating is expected to have positive implications for Saratoga County, including lower borrowing costs, which helps to keep taxes low; increased investor confidence, which attracts business growth; and greater capacity for funding public projects and services that benefit the community, which contributes to the County’s high quality of life, according to a statement released by the county.
