YEREVAN, October 12. /ARKA/. On Monday, the board of the Central Bank
of Armenia presented the current situation on the country’s financial
market and in the banking system to the IMF executive directors,
the press office of the Central Bank of Armenia reports.

The Central Bank Chairman Arthur Javadyan told the IMF delegation that
things on Armenian financial market are stable now, and liquidity in
the banking system is abundant.

The stress tests held by the central bank’s specialists showed that
adequacy of banking capitals would considerably exceed the minimal
required benchmark under the worst circumstances.

Javadyan said that the central bank has taken certain steps to mitigate
adverse impacts of the global crisis – the bank has reconsidered
refinancing rate seven times since the beginning of this year and
lowered it 2.75 percentage points.

The government pumped up great amounts of cash into the banking system
to enable banks to lend money.

The central bank widened the range of credit instruments by adding
long-term refinancing loans to short-term loans for banks.

The central bank also intensified its participation on the secondary
state securities market, promoting a wider fiscal policy.

Javadyan also said that National Mortgage Company has already started
operating – it refinances banks ‘ mortgage loans.

The guests welcomed the central bank’s efforts saying these steps
have already proven to be effective, and the high-skilled team has
contributed a great deal to that.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
