The Minister attached importance to the launch of another office in "ARMECONOMBANK", and noted that about 70 state services provided by state bodies are also available at this unified office. "I attach importance to this office operating in "Yerevan Market" also in terms of its location, where there is much movement of people, and the citizen may obtain here the statement of information he or she needs without wasting additional resource or time", said Arpine Hovhannisyan.

Executive Director of "ARMECONOMBANK" OJSC Aramayis Galstyan noted that customers would have the opportunity to use the services of unified offices at 12 branches of the bank.
