    ArmInfo. In Q3 2009 the turnover of the UNIStream international money
    transfer system in Armenia grew by 78% to $385.3mln.

    According to Unibank, transfers from abroad into Armenia grew by 80%
    to $346.1mln, from Armenia to abroad by 62.3% to $39.1mln. The number
    of transactions grew by 66.5% to 512,055 (483,198 incoming and 28,857
    outgoing transfers).

    96% of incoming UNIStream transfers were from Russia, 1% from Ukraine,
    0.8% from Greece, 0.5% from Kazakhstan, 0.3% from the UK. 88% of
    outgoing transfers were to Russia, 6% to Ukraine, 2% to Georgia, 0.6%
    to Bulgaria, 0.4% to UAE.

    60% ($232mln) of the transfers were in USD, 31% (119mln RUR) in RUR, 5%
    (20mln EUR) in EUR and 4% (15mln AMD) in AMD.

    Director General of UNIStream Suren Hayriyan says that Jan-Sept
    2009 was a hard period for the global money transfer market due to
    macro-economic situation, devaluation of national currencies and
    influence of the crisis on labor migration. This year UNIStream has
    shown high growth and is leading on the CIS money transfer market. "We
    have implemented a number of big projects: we have opened own network
    in Russia, Greece and Germany and are growing into a big international
    player," says Hayriyan.

    UNIStream has operated in Armenia via its exclusive partner, Unibank,
    since 2002.
