Fitch Ratings maintained the sovereign ratings of China with a 'stable' outlook citing robust external finances and macroeconomic track record, cited by rttnews.

The agency retained China's rating at 'A+'.

Nonetheless, Fitch noted that the recent economic growth trajectory has been accompanied by a build-up of imbalances and vulnerabilities that poses risks to its basic economic and financial stability.

In its assessment, vulnerabilities will rise over 2016-18 forecast horizon, as policy settings continue to prioritize rapid economic growth over macroeconomic stability
