01 October 2024, Tuesday
On June 28, the bonds of "Farm Credit Armenia" UCO CC have been listed on the Bbond list of the Armenia Securities Exchange, allowing manual and Repo transactions with these bonds.
Dimension CJSC, as Farm Credit Armenia’s underwriter, was also present at the Bell Ringing Ceremony.
This tradition dates back to the 19th century, marking important events (for example, the listing of securities) on Securities Exchanges around the world.
"Typically, companies issuing bonds in our market have already taken certain steps in the capital market by issuing various types of securities. However, this year stands out because this is the third new company's entry into the Armenia Securities Exchange. Considering the statistics of recent years, we must state that this is a good indicator. I am confident that the entry of new companies into the capital market and their activity of this kind will make the investment environment even more attractive. An important factor is also the sectoral diversity of companies issuing and listing bonds. This is a signal that a culture of raising funds through alternative methods in the capital market is being formed, which I consider very positive," said Hayk Yeganyan, CEO of the Armenia Securities Exchange.
"Over the years, we have successfully collaborated with local and international partners to attract financial resources. The cooperative is a partner with the German-Armenian Fund in terms of loan programs of the World Bank, the German KfW Bank, the Asian Development Bank, and the European Investment Bank, as well as the programs of the Ministry of Economy of Armenia's "RAED PIU" and the National Mortgage Company. Notably, the cooperative's partnership with the French Development Agency and the Proparco investment company in terms of subordinated loans enables us to increase capital and attract additional resources. I should mention that the company also collaborates with German, Swiss, Belgian, and American investors. The issuance of bonds is another new step towards the capital market, which will increase the company's recognition among local investors," stated Armen Gabrielyan, director of "Farm Credit Armenia" UCO CJSC.
"Dimension Investments is very pleased to support Farm Credit Armenia, a leading and successful agricultural credit organization in Armenia, in entering the Armenian capital market. I hope that the Company will continue its active participation in the capital market, using the attracted funds and instruments for the further development of agriculture in Armenia," said Levon Movsisyan, CEO of "Dimension" CJSC.
The funds raised by the issuer will be directed to the activation of lending to agricultural holdings.
The terms of the bonds are the following:
The interest income from listed bonds in the Republic of Armenia is exempt from income tax and non-resident profit tax.
