expected to grow 45% to AMD 14 billion in 2010, Gevorg Machanyan,
executive director and chairman of the bank's directorial board,
said answering the question ARKA News Agency put up to him.

portfolio, which mostly consists of business loans.
Machanyan said that the bank is mainly focused on financing
export-oriented enterprises.
"A major part of ArmSwissbank's credit portfolio also consists of
crediting small hydro power plants, since the bank is a participant
of German-Armenian Fund's renewable energy financing program, and
such programs will be continued in 2010," he said.
The bank is also enlarging funds for industry and transport sectors.
ArmSwissbank's credit investments reached AMD 9.7 billion by late
December 2009 after growing 50.1% since the beginning of that year.

compared with the beginning of the year.
