"… Fitch has downgraded the ratings of Banco Compartamos by one notch, whose international ratings are at or close to the sovereign rating and driven by its stand-alone credit profile as reflected by the VRs. Fitch believes this Bank's performance and prospects could be affected by a worsening operating environment, reflecting the agency's view that the relativities of the VR/IDRs versus the sovereign rating should be maintained…"
