National Rating Agency has withdrawn its credit rating on CentrObuv Trade House JSC (CentrObuv) due to the lack of information needed for NRA's rating methodology application in conformity with Clause 5, Article 12 of Federal Law No.222-FZ 'On the Activities of Credit Rating Agencies in the Russian Federation'.
