Report on the Observance of Standards and Codes, Accounting and Audit
took place in Yerevan on June 17. The report contains information on
the requirements and practice of accounting and audit in the sphere

that the report will enable to improve corporate accounting and
audit in Armenia as they represent an essential precondition for
developing the country's economy. In his words, corporate financial
transparency is also of importance to the private sector because it
provides investors with an opportunity to properly assess the corporate
prospects of companies, raise investors' trust in private companies and
to increase accessibility of credits to small and medium enterprises.

and audit are one of the most important sectors of the financial and
economic system.

international organizations, reforms aimed at bringing the sector into
