Government approves IMF board of governors’ decision to increase quota for Armenia from 98 million SDR to 128.8 million SDR

YEREVAN, April 17. / ARKA /. The Armenian government has approved today a decision by IMF Board of Governors on December 15, 2010 to increase the quota for Armenia from 98 million SDR to 128.8 million SDR.

On April 17, one SDR was valued at USD 1.5481. -0 –
