One of international rating agencies will soon finish the study of
financial indicators in Armenia necessary to specify the sovereign
rating of the country, Central Bank board member Vache Gabrielyan
told Panorama.am. “We hope to finish talks with both organizations
and will get sovereign rating soon,” he said.
The rating on sovereignty is determined by three international rating
agencies: Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service and Fitch
Ratings. The leadership of Armenia is negotiating with two of them.
The investment rating will enable Armenia to find its place in the
international financial map.
The Head of CB Tigran Sarkisyan told earlier that he waits for “B”
or even several “Bs.”
