    CENTRAL BANK GOVERNOR SAYS GOVERNMENT EAGER TO CRACKDOWN ON SHADOW ECONOMY

    YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 21, ARMENPRESS: Central Bank governor Tigran
    Sarkisian told journalists today that the government has worked out
    an all-embracing plan of actions to drastically reduce the volume of
    shadow economy.

    Sarkisian described the document as 'very serious' saying also a prime
    minister-affiliated council to help promote entrepreneurship will
    be set up soon. The Central bank governor said one of the projected
    actions is to crucially increase the number of transactions subject
    to mandatory cashless settlement.

    He said the government believes it would become an effective instrument
    to thwart attempts of some businessmen to hide the real amount of
    their financial flows. He said serious administrative innovations are
    expected to be introduced to allow tax officials to crackdown on tax
    evasion more effectively.

    The governor said this document would be send to parliament after
    being carefully examined by the council that would be established
    under the prime minister.
