    Conference focuses on effects of monopolies in Armenia

    YEREVAN-The Hrayr Maroukhian Foundation, with the financial support
    of the Friedrich Ebert-Stiftung of Germany last month presented
    its research on monopolies and its effects on the domestic market
    of Armenia to over seventy economists, scholars, researchers, and
    representatives of relevant state bodies in Yerevan.

    In 2012, the HMF had invited a working group of experts to undertake
    this groundbreaking study, which included Ara Nranyan, former Member
    of Parliament and economist; Hayk Hovhanissyan, economist and Arsen
    Petrosyan, economist.

    Prior to the presentation of the study, "Monopolies in Armenia,"
    welcoming remarks were made by the Director of the Hrayr
    Maroukhian Foundation, Maria Titizian, Regional Director of the
    Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung, Michael Weichart and Armenian Revolutionary
    Federation Bureau member, David Lokyan.

    The event was moderated by Artsvik Minasyan, current National Assembly
    member of the Republic of Armenia.

    Following opening remarks, the HMF Working Group presented its findings
    that included a theoretical and practical analysis of monopolies
    in a global context, the current state of markets in Armenia,
    international best practices implemented to regulate monopolies, the
    effect of domestic monopolies on the Armenian economy, they analyzed
    the activities of the Republic of Armenia's State Commission for
    the Protection of Economic Competition (SCPEC) and made specific
    recommendations for the implementation of a model for tighter
    regulation of monopolies in the country. The overriding premise of the
    study strived to illustrate that to ensure a competitive atmosphere
    in the country's domestic market, something which is essential for
    economic growth Armenia must demonstrate the political will to ensure
    regulation and compliance for the management of monopolies.

    A question and answer session followed the presentation.
