    Issues related to the reformation of the pension security system were
    discussed during the consultations at the President's Office,
    featuring the heads of all interested agencies.

    President Sargsyan said the system inherited from Soviet times does
    not meet the requirements of the time, therefore there is an urgent
    necessity to reform the sphere.

    Deputy Minister of Social Security Artem Sargsyan and Deputy Minister
    of Finance Vardan Aramyan presented the primary directions of the
    program of reforms, stressing that the most important is the
    introduction of the accumulation system, which will ensure the welfare
    of the citizens after retirement.

    According to them, the proposed model has taken into consideration the
    experience of pension reforms of the contemporary world.

    Summing up the results of the consultations, President Sargsyan
    instructed the heads of corresponding agencies to hold discussions on
    the issues discussed, assess the risks, work out clear guarantee
    mechanisms.
