tippet, don't expect a German bank/company breaking down because of RUBEL-denominated assets. Thanks to conservative German accounting laws all loans have already been written down to nothing or are secured by the government or are covered by huge reserves long ago.
Russia is not a new problem, this has been going on for years. Noone really expected to get any money back from Russia. We look at it as a purchase price for Eastern Germany + peace premium and, maybe, an investment that might pay off in 20 years or so.
