YEREVAN, December 17. \/ARKA\/. Mark Horton, IMF newly appointed Resident Rrepresentative in Armenia, said today the full-year inflation will be within 9-10%.<\/p>\n
He said the IMF did not have concrete data for December and depending on how prices might behave this month, the full year inflation is likely to rise to 9.5%, he said in response to a question from ARKA.<\/p>\n
He added that the Central Bank is unlikely to control inflation shocks and it is evident that the Bank will not be able to secure either the projected inflation of 4% (\u00b11.5%). He said it was expected that price hikes in agriculture would not be lasting, but they did last longer than expected.<\/p>\n
Mark Horton said also IMF was watching price related trends in Russia, Georgia and Ukraine where they do not differ from Armenia.<\/p>\n
According to the National Statistical Service, Armenian inflation rose to 7.9% in Jan.-October year-on-year. Earlier IMF forecasted a 6% full year inflation in Armenia in 2010. \u20130–<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
