YEREVAN, October 28, /ARKA/. The development of domestic capital markets is a priority in the region. This reflects not only the reduction of vulnerability of capital flows but also the necessity to strengthen the resilience of financial markets in general, said the Chairman of the Central Bank of Armenia Martin Galstyan during a webinar based on the materials of the new IMF report titled Regional Economic Outlook: Middle East and Central Asia.

‘The three main components I would like to mention here are expanding the investor base - both local and foreign, expanding the pool of instruments available and the third is encouraging large companies to adopt high standards of corporate governance and eventually obtaining international ratings. Local investor base, especially institutional investors like pension funds play a center role in this respect by providing stable source of financing.
