Elisabetta Falcetti, the bank&#8217;s Executive Director for Turkey and the Caucasus, stated this in an interview with ARKA news agency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;This level of investment underscores Armenia&#8217;s importance to the EBRD, as well as its growing ability to effectively attract and utilize investment resources,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Falcetti, Armenia has seen record investment volumes for the second consecutive year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;After reaching a historic high of \u20ac396 million in 2024, our investments have reached a new record high of approximately \u20ac426 million in 2025 across 26 projects.
