    British consul promises more boost to Armenian economy

    Yerevan, 7 December: The United Kingdom will continue to contribute to
    the economic growth in Armenia both on a bilateral level and within the
    framework of European Union projects, the British consul in Yerevan,
    Richard Hyde, said, as he was addressing the ceremony to open an
    exhibition of British companies operating in Armenia.

    The business circles of the two countries have enough potential to
    expand bilateral cooperation, boost trade and rejuvenate investment
    policies, he said.

    The main obstacles in the development of business in Armenia are
    still the lack of transparency in the financial sector, corruption
    and protectionism, Hyde said. At the same time, he noted, the Armenian
    government is taking measures to tackle these problems.

    The total volume of British investment in the Armenian economy is
    around 50m dollars now, with 21 enterprises working with British
    capital.
