    "Implementation of corporative governance will make the activity
    of Armenian banks more transparent and effective," declared Vache
    Gabrielyan, member of the Board of Trustees of the Central Bank
    of Armenia.

    Speaking at the seminar titled "The corporative governance of the
    Armenian banking system." Vache Gabrielyan said there are no strict
    terms of shifting to the corporative governance system. However,
    starting July 1, 2006 some new norms will come into force, which
    will allow to gradually implement the corporative governance
    system. Mr. Gabrielyan noted that the banking system of Armenia is
    adjusted to the implementation of corporative governance.

    Expert of corporative governance of the International Financial
    Corporation Panos Labrapolus noted that one of the problems the
    Armenian banking system faces is the extreme centralization of
    property. He referred to the results of the survey among 15 banks,
    according to which only two of the banks have over 20 shareholders. The
    survey revealed also that only two of the banks intend to place their
    shares at the stock market. According to Panos Labrapolus's assessment,
    this is not a bad index at the current stage of development of the
    banking system.
