The Chairman of the Central Bank of Armenia, Martin Galstyan, was a speaker on the Rearrange podcast. The conversation covered a variety of topics, including the prospects of the banking system, the possibility of introducing a digital currency in Armenia, and the topic of public debt.
This time, IDBank’s Customer Appreciation Day, filled with surprises and gratitude, was held at the Bank’s Gyumri branch. Bringing this now traditional event to the regions is part of the Bank’s commitment to staying closer to its customers.
At its annual general meeting of shareholders, Acba Bank summarized the results of 2025 with impressive figures and set new targets for the current year.
As of March 31, 2026, the total loan portfolio of Armenian banks stood at AMD 8.01 trillion, marking a 22.63% rise compared to March 31, 2025, and a 4.05% increase from December 31, 2025.
In the current situation in Armenia, there is no reason to panic over the depreciation of the dram, says Martin Galstyan, head of the Central Bank of Armenia.
In Armenia, 12-month inflation in the consumer market in May of this year amounted to 4.2%, according to a report from the Statistical Committee of Armenia.
The net inflow of cross-border transfers to individuals in Armenia, received from abroad through the Armenian banking system, amounted to $728.1 million in January-April 2026, compared to $273.4 million in January-April 2025, according to a report from the Central Bank.
Institutional players are entering the dram-denominated government debt market in Armenia, stated Martin Galstyan, Chairman of the Central Bank of Armenia.
The Central Bank of Armenia expects inflation to return to the target level in the medium term, said Central Bank Chairman Martin Galstyan, answering a question from the ARKA news agency.
Amid the S&P 500's worst quarter since 2022, rising global anxiety, and persistent geopolitical uncertainty, investors are increasingly asking whether this is a temporary market reaction or a deeper shift in investment logic.
Capital market development in Armenia is increasingly dependent not only on the growth in the number of issues and the expansion of instruments, but also on the quality of the environment in which investors make decisions.
The digital infrastructure of the Armenian capital market has made significant progress in recent years, but the market still lacks a more robust regulatory and technological framework for the full development of new financial instruments.
The capital market of Armenia is undergoing a significant transformation: there is an increasing interest in bonds, foreign investors are becoming more engaged, and there is a rising demand for new financial instruments, ranging from IPOs to digital assets
