    IMF forecasts 2014 inflation in Armenia at 2.5%
    YEREVAN. Oct 31


    The International Monetary Fund (IMF) is expecting that inflation in
    Armenia will be 2.5% in 2014 and 4% in 2015.

    Resident IMF Representative in Yerevan Teresa Daban Sanchez said at a
    press conference on Friday that at present in Armenia there is very
    low inflation - for September 2014 it was 1.5% - compared to September
    of last year.

    "Today inflation in the republic has reached a historic minimum," Sanchez said.

    She said that global trends and a number of internal factors are
    affecting the inflation situation in Armenia, including low demand,
    which is attributable to the slowdown in economic growth and
    under-funding of capital expenditure by the budget.

    Inflation in Armenia in 2013 was 5.6%. Earlier the IMF forecast
    inflation for Armenia in 2014 at 5.4%.
