SYDNEY, May 25 (Reuters) - New Zealand's strong fiscal position will help reduce debt well-below most triple A rated sovereigns, ratings agency Moody's said on Thursday after the government posted its second straight surplus.
"The economy's strong growth reinforces robust public finances," said Matthew Circosta, an analyst at Moody's, seeing real GDP growth of around 3.0 percent through 2017 and 2018, above the Aaa median of 2.0 percent.
New Zealand is rated Aaa with a stable outlook by Moody's.
