The Czech Republic is fast-tracking legislation to exempt infrastructure investments from fiscal rules, potentially pushing the national deficit above 3% of GDP. The move reverses a long-standing tradition of fiscal constraint to fund road, rail, and nuclear projects. Investors face a shift in the country's credit profile as the budget watchdog warns of a permanent paradigm shift in debt management.
