Rouble 'set to touch new lows'

Ratings agencies say economic outlook worsens amid Ukraine conflict, oil fall

The world's top rouble forecaster is unimpressed by the currency's 30 percent rebound from a record low.

The analyst - Danske Bank A/S's Vladimir Miklashevsky - said that the rouble may be testing new lows again this quarter as the plunge in oil, Russia's top export, threatens to cost the country its investment-grade credit ratings and turns Russians away from their currency.
