ADB partners with Armenia in promoting inclusive, sustainable, and private sector-led growth.
Armenia is poised to benefit economically and environmentally from electric vehicle adoption, driven by affordable electricity and regulatory reforms. By implementing a comprehensive policy framework, the nation can enhance air quality and reduce dependency on imported oil.
ADB has been in partnership with Armenia since 2005 and is one of the country’s largest multilateral development partners.
Armenia’s economic growth rate is forecast to slow in 2024 due to a decline in external demand before recovering slightly in 2025, according to ADB.
Analyzing the financing hurdles facing Armenia’s small businesses, this brief looks at bank lending and considers why universal credit organizations need to be more competitive to gain a larger share of the microfinance sector.
ADB’s draft country partnership strategy (CPS), 2024–2028, for Armenia is fully aligned with the country’s long- and medium-term development strategies and climate agenda. It responds to the country’s evolving priorities, including (i) resilient growth promoted through competitiveness; (ii) a stronger private sector; and (iii) human capital development. ADB’s support focuses on (i) strengthening private sector-led growth; (ii) enhancing governance, institutions, and human capital; and (iii) improving climate and disaster resilience.
As of 31 December 2023, ADB has committed 62 public sector loans, grants, and technical assistance totaling $1.5 billion to Armenia.
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has become a key driver of economic growth in Armenia.
