YEREVAN, February 3. /ARKA/. Armenia's Unibank plans to launch
an online branch network in March, with its Abovyan, Artashat and
Echmiadzin branches getting online in January.
Currently, the bank's head office, as well as its 12 Yerevan-based
and seven regional branches are connected to a common database.
"Thanks to the online system, our clients can make deals in any branch
inside the system, irrespective of the initial address of the service,"

customers using money transfer services. The bank allows clients to
get transfers through Unistream in any branch connected to Unibank's

branch network system last July.

in 2008, with its total capital reaching 8bln 822mln drams (25.8%
year-on-year increase). Unibank's assets rose 49.4% to 68bln 141mln
drams. As a result, the bank earned 1bln 729mln worth net profit
last year.
