YEREVAN, October 27. /ARKA/. Mellat Bank CJSC, fully owned by Iran’s Mellat Bank, is considering room for opening a branch in Georgia, Mohammad Bigdeli, chairman of Mellat Bank CJSC’s board, told journalists on Wednesday.

It is implied that the Tbilisi branch will operate under the Yerevan Mellat Bank’s management.

Bigdeli said that the matter is under preliminary consideration now. “If the opening of this branch will be found reasonable, we will open it,” he said.

He stressed that there are no particular terms and that the process might take one or more months.

The head of the board also said that the bank is considering reasonability of opening branches also in Armenia.
