Fitch on Tuesday downgraded Russia’s sovereign rating by six notches further into the junk territory to ‘C’ from ‘B’, saying a default is imminent as sanctions and trade restrictions have undermined its willingness to service debt.

The change comes less than a week after Fitch revoked Russia's investment-grade status, slashing its rating to"B"from"BBB".The change comes less than a week after Fitch revoked Russia's investment-grade status, slashing its rating to"B"from"BBB".
