    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ ProCredit Bank is celebrating its first anniversary
    in Armenia together with clients On February 5, 2009.

    The first year was a successful one for ProCredit Bank in
    Armenia. During 2008 five new branches opened their doors to customers,
    four in Yerevan and one in Vanadzor city. Today, the ProCredit team
    in Armenia comprises more than 200 young and talented individuals
    who dedicate their efforts to delivering best service to our clients.

    The bank's gross loan portfolio grew to USD 24 million. 90% of
    loans in the business loan portfolio were for amounts less than
    USD 10,000. This figure demonstrates the bank's clear commitment to
    serving small entrepreneurs as its core target group.

    During the last twelve months the bank's total customer funds grew
    by USD 9.3 million and the total number of customer accounts reached
    6,700. The majority of the customer funds are placed on savings and
    term deposit accounts, 80% of which are for amounts less than USD
    1,000. Such a large number of small savings demonstrate the bank's
    focus on becoming the bank for "ordinary people" who will have access
    to fair and transparent banking services.

    In the future, ProCredit Bank in Armenia will remain focused on lending
    to very small, small, and medium sized businesses, as the bank is
    convinced that these businesses create the largest number of jobs and
    make a sizeable contribution to the economy of Armenia. ProCredit Bank
    will also continue encouraging a savings culture in Armenia, as the
    bank believes that savings add stability to households in the long
    term. To serve as many clients as possible, in 2009 up to seven new
    branches will be opened throughout Armenia which will allow ProCredit
    Bank to increase its outreach in Yerevan and in the country's regions.

    "ProCredit Banks around the world have become one of the leading
    banks in terms of financing very small, small, and medium enterprises
    as well as reliable partners for private individuals, and ProCredit
    Bank in Armenia has also set course on reaching this goal. We will
    continue offering our clients simple, easy-to-understand products,
    complimented by our high quality service," said Bertolt Hertzfeldt,
    executive director of ProCredit Bank.
