The Armenian government does not intend to extend the income tax refund program for mortgage interest repayments in the regions adjacent to Yerevan, RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan announced.
ACBA Bank has unveiled special business financing offers for the development of small and medium-sized enterprises in Armenia, which are effective until July 31 inclusive.
As of March 31, 2026, the total loan portfolio of Armenian banks stood at AMD 8.01 trillion, marking a 22.63% rise compared to March 31, 2025, and a 4.05% increase from December 31, 2025.
The IMF is committed to close and long-term cooperation with the Armenian authorities, stated IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva in a congratulatory message to Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan on his victory in the parliamentary elections.
The ongoing economic uncertainty underscores Armenian authorities' need for continuing efforts to build resilience and improve prospects for future growth, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) said in a press release.
Amid the S&P 500's worst quarter since 2022, rising global anxiety, and persistent geopolitical uncertainty, investors are increasingly asking whether this is a temporary market reaction or a deeper shift in investment logic.
Capital market development in Armenia is increasingly dependent not only on the growth in the number of issues and the expansion of instruments, but also on the quality of the environment in which investors make decisions.
The digital infrastructure of the Armenian capital market has made significant progress in recent years, but the market still lacks a more robust regulatory and technological framework for the full development of new financial instruments.
The capital market of Armenia is undergoing a significant transformation: there is an increasing interest in bonds, foreign investors are becoming more engaged, and there is a rising demand for new financial instruments, ranging from IPOs to digital assets
