Armenian Central Bank to auction 3 billion drams worth long-term Government bonds

The Central Bank of Armenia, together with banks, is ready to introduce stricter mechanisms to prevent telephone fraud, stated regulator head Martin Galstyan, responding to a question from the ARKA news agency.

Inflation has components driven by supply and demand factors.

At a meeting on Thursday, the Armenian government approved the signing of a €120 million loan agreement with the German bank KfW for the "Caucasus Transmission Network - NIF" project to connect the power systems of Armenia and Georgia. Additionally, a €15 million grant agreement with KfW was approved for the "EU Caucasus Transmission Network - NIF. Phase II" project.

In January and February 2026, inflation in Armenia amounted to 3.8% y/y and 4.3% y/y, respectively, according to the EDB's March review.

The risk premium in Armenia has increased slightly due to events in the Middle East, although not as much as in other countries in the region and beyond, stated Martin Galstyan, head of the Central Bank of Armenia.
