The country\u2019s stable macroeconomic situation, relatively high GDP growth along with low inflation, strengthening dram and other macroeconomic factors contribute to this, Ignatov said in his exclusive interview to ARKA Agency.<\/p>\n

Ignatov said that Armenia has one of the best developed financial systems in the CIS owing to strict banking supervision policy pursued by the country\u2019s central bank, the unified credit register, wide use of best international practices and relatively small market.<\/p>\n

The banker also reminded that Armenia improved its position in the last Doing Business rating, having moved from 50th to 32nd (for comparison: Kazakhstan ranked 49th, Russia 112th) as it advanced the indices in three most important categories: protection of investors, taxation, connection to electricity networks.<\/p>\n

This business environment is one of the best in the bank\u2019s member states, Ignatov said.<\/p>\n
