Earlier, the CBA banned operation of another Russian transfer system, \u201cMigom\u201d, in Armenia.<\/p>\n<p>Aghasyan mentioned that this year the regulatory body maintains a stricter control over the fulfillment of requirements by transfer systems as many complaints are received from residents.<br \/>\nThe monitoring showed that some transfer systems obliged to provide money transfer services in all branches of a partner bank, fail to do it in the branches registered in Nagorno-Karabakh, particularly in Stepanakert, Hadrut, Shushi.<\/p>\n<p>Aghasyan said that fourteen money transfer systems operate in Armenia today.
