YEREVAN, August 6. /ARKA/. Standard & Poor’s has affirmed the downgrading of 15 of Italy’s biggest banks, and has cut the ratings on 15 more, Seattle Times newspaper reports Monday.

The credit ratings agency that Italy’s recession will be potentially deeper and more prolonged than previously thought. It says problem assets were mounting and that many banks had reduced provisions for loan losses, making them more vulnerable.
