YEREVAN, May 16. /ARKA/. In 2019 Armenia saw a record low rate of overdue loans, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said during an online press conference on Saturday, presenting 100 facts about the new Armenia.

He said the share of overdue loans in the total amount of loans issued by commercial banks in 2019 decreased to lowest record level of 0.85%, down from 1% in December 2018.
