Question for Central Bank: what is the cause of crisis in Armenian  payment market?
 Friday, September 5 2025,

ArmInfo.  It is difficult to classify what is happening in the non-cash payments market of Armenia.

In the last few months,  the system has been constantly shaking, payments are not going  through, serious failures are occurring, and the public is becoming a  victim of all this confusion.

Economic activity 7.1% up in Armenia in Jan-July 2025
 Friday, September 5 2025,

ArmInfo. In Armenia, economic activity growth in January-July 2025 slowed down to 7.1% per annum (from 9.6% in the same period of 2024). Moreover, the industrial  sector, which was one of the growth drivers a year earlier, is  weakening the pace of economic growth with the current decline.  According to the final data of the RA Statistical Committee, this is  accompanied by a reversal in the dynamics of foreign trade from  significant growth to a significant decline. According to statistics,  the slowdown in economic activity growth in January-July 2025 was  largely due to the deterioration in the annual dynamics of the  industrial sector from 15.7% growth to 9.8% decline and a strong  slowdown in the growth of the trade sector from 21.4% to 4.2%. A  noticeable increase in growth is noted in the energy complex - from  2.8% to 5.6%. At the same time, the service sector managed to  accelerate in annual growth from 4.5% to 10.6%, which was also noted  at a more pronounced pace in the construction sector - from 16.1% to  20.2%. There is no data on the agricultural sector, since the  Statistical Committee indicates them only in quarterly and annual  reports.
