Moody’s Hornung: Macron Potentially Credit Positive for France

(Bloomberg) -- Dietmar Hornung, associate managing director at Moody’s Investors Service, says at a panel at Euromoney conference in London on Wednesday. 
  • “France has a big opportunity now. From a credit perspective we would hope that France can deliver a Macron moment like the U.K. had it’s Thatcher moment,” he says. “That’s something that has been missing in France”
  • Hornung says the euro area cannot tolerate big policy missteps
    • “The volatility of electoral outcomes is a bit concerning”
