YEREVAN, DECEMBER 6, ARMENPRESS. The EBRD has been operating in Armenia for 30 years, investing over €2 billion in over 200 projects, with more than 90 per cent of these in the private sector, the Bank said in a statement.

The Bank’s key areas of investment include the financial sector, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and sustainable infrastructure. The Bank supports these sectors through investment combined with policy engagement and technical cooperation.

On average, the Bank invests around €150 million in Armenia’s economy on annual basis. Through its partner financial institutions in Armenia, the EBRD channels approximately €100 million to local SMEs through various programmes on trade finance, competitiveness, green, and inclusive financing.
