    Armenian dram on March 3

    ArmInfo. With the Armenian Central Bank returning to the policy of
    floating rate, Armenian dram devaluated by 20% and local commercial
    banks suffered 5 billion drams loss, Armenian Prime Minister Tigran
    Sargsyan told media Friday.

    In response to ArmInfo question regarding budget risks connected with
    the considerable growth of the exchange rate despite the planed 305
    drams per US$1, the premier said the government follows the inflation
    forecasts by the Central Bank which is evaluated at 8% for late 2009.
