YEREVAN, November 1, /ARKA/. Armenia’s Central Bank projects that the median nominal monthly wage will grow by 7.5% in the fourth quarter of the outgoing year.

The Central Bank also projects that the unemployment rate will fall further to 6.7% for the first nine months of 2009, by 0.4 p.p. down from the same time span of 2010.
