YEREVAN, December 11. /ARKA/. The International Monetary Fund (IMF)
projects Armenian inflation to be 3% on the average in 2010, the
outgoing IMF Resident Representative Nienke Oomes said Thursday.
She said the inflation in Armenia has been growing in last several
months rising to 4% in November and is expected to rise to 5.2%

within the frames set by the Central Bank, although the numbers are
approaching the ceiling of the target,' she said.
In 2009 October the inflation grew by 1.2% from a year before.
According to the official figures of the National Statistical
Committee, prices of food, including beverage prices, rose by 1.8%
