Holding's headquarters Cascade Credit CJSC and the United States Agency
for International Development (USAID) signed a loan guarantee agreement
according to which USAID will guarantee bonds to be issued by Cascade
Credit CJSC. The loan agreement was signed by U.S. Ambassador John

Credit Executive Director Garegin Gevorgyan. This loan agreement
will provide a partial guarantee for bonds to be issued by Cascade
Credit, which will be issued and traded on the Armenian Stock Exchange

Cascade Credit will pave the way for development of capital markets
in Armenia by illustrating the viability of public corporate debt
market." "It is also a major step towards Cascade Capital's goal
