Description

This provides the report and recommendation of the president for (i) a proposed policy-based loan to Armenia; and (ii) a proposed loan to the Central Bank of Armenia (CBA), with a sovereign guarantee from Armenia—both for the Women’s Entrepreneurship Support Sector Development Program (the program). The report also describes proposed technical assistance for Capacity Building for Women’s Entrepreneurship Support, for the approval of ADB's Board of Directors.
