YEREVAN, July 4. /ARKA/. Net profit of Armenian Ameriabank reached
500mln AMD early this July, Director General of `Ameriabank’ CJSC Artak
Hanesyan told reporters on Friday.

`The bank operates in the black despite some difficulties caused by
currency fluctuation in March 2009. However we managed to compensate
for the loss and come to indicator of net profit,’ Hanesyan said.

113.6mln AMD in the first quarter of 2009, increasing by 110.2% (54mln
AMD). Pretax profits of the bank totaled 310mln AMD.

1992, as the Armenian branch of the USSR Vnesheconombank. On September
8, 1992, the Central Bank of Armenia licensed Armimpexbank.

In August 2007 the TDA Holding Limited, affiliate of the Russian Troika
Dialog, became the bank’s shareholder. The bank was renamed Ameriabank
last May. G. S. `0–

“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
