As now the portfolio of the bank in Armenia is 51 million EURO, we speak about doubling this indicator. Significant part of this amount can be transferred to the real sector of economy.

“It is important that shareholders from Armenia consider that the bank should continue funding and the work with financial structures, that is why the share of financial institutes will prevail in our portfolio”, said Kondakov. Armenia occupies the sixth place by portfolio size among eleven member-states.

“Though Armenia invested 1% (the share of Armenia in charter capital of the bank), it has about 5% (from total) portfolio. It is a good indicator showing that there are good projects in Armenia funded by the bank”, he said.
