Armenia has recently introduced significant changes to its monetary policy framework. In 2024 the Central Bank of Armenia (CBA) adopted a risk management approach to price stability, known as FPAS Mark II. This new framework replaced the traditional baseline scenario with scenario analysis for decision-making and communication.

Since the framework was launched recently, a profound assessment of it will require time and observation. For the detailed information please click here |
