Introduction

Dynamic development of Azerbaijan and its investment attractiveness 1 are directly related to the emergence and performance of an efficient, stable and flexible banking system. Creation of such a system was declared as one of the main goals of market reforms going on since mid-1990s. These reforms are being successfully implemented under guidance of the country president Mr. Ilham Aliyev. Banking sector is the most rapidly developing section of the economy of Azerbaijan 2. As of January 1, 2008, the annual growth rate of banks’ total capital was 90% and reached $1280m. As of December 31, 2007, the total assets of all banks reached AZN 6726m or almost $8bn which is 25% of GDP 3. It is significant that, according to data of the National Bank of and Central Bank of Armenia 4, as of December 31, 2007, bank assets of these countries were $4.53bn and $2.51bn, re- spectively. It is therefore noteworthy that banks’ assets in Azerbaijan at the end of 2007, long being the highest among the Central Caucasus, surpassed the aggregate volume of banks’ assets of Georgia and Armenia. Total savings and deposits in 2007 exceeded AZN 3.6bn. Minimal charter capital requirement for banks in Azerbaijan is currently at AZN 10m ($11.8m); return on assets (ROA) and return on eq- uity (ROE) are 2.6% and 17.6%, respectively; net profit reached AZN 129m 5. As of December 2007, total lending made up AZN 4323.2m, up 48% from the previous year, with state-owned banks lending AZN 1725.7m, and private banks lending AZN 2486.5m. Non-banking credit institutions lent the total of AZN 111m. Lending in the non-oil sector had sharp growth rate. The structure of total loans looks as fol- lows: residential construction (35.7%), trade and services (25.9%), transportation and communication (9.0%), manufacturing industry (7.0%), energy, chemistry and natural resources (5.4%), agricultural sector (4.5%), building and real estate (7.3%), other (5.2%). The National Bank of Azerbaijan (NBA) achieved considerable success in the formation and regula- tion of the banking system. As of June 20, 2008, currency reserves of the NBA reached $5bn. The na- tional currency of Azeri manat is linked to the US dollar more tightly than to the Euro and other cur- rencies. At the same time, since June 1, 2008, the National Bank of Azerbaijan has defined the com- position of dollar to euro in its bi-currency basket as 70% to 30%. According to the NBA’s Principal directions of monetary policy in 2008, sterilization of some $1.7bn was secured by the NBA. These measures helped to restrict the devaluation of manat by about 3 percentage points. Despite a fairly tight regulation of the manat-to-dollar exchange rate, the local currency continues to strengthen and this has a negative impact on the exporting possibilities of the country in the non-oil sector. The development of the banking system arouses a matching interest on the part of its foreign partners. Starting from 2007, the process of gradual liberalization of the export of capital began, whereby the approval basis is replaced by notification basis. Since January 1, 2004, the country has been declared open to foreign banks and all limits on participation were removed. In recent years, a clear trend towards an increasing activity of foreign banks is evident in Azerbaijan. This applies to

1 See Appendix 1.: Tables 1.1 – 1.4. 2 See Appendix 1.: Table 1.7. 3 As of December 2007, USD/AZN=0,85. See also Appendix 1.: Tables 1.5 and 1.6. 4 http://www.nbg.gov.ge/index.php?m=306 http://www.cba.am/CBA_SITE/financial_system_control/banksystem/?__locale=en 5 See Appendix 1.: Tables 1.8, 1.10 and 1.11. 2 “proximate” (former USSR) countries: Parex Bank (Latvia),  Bank (Georgia), as well as to fi- nancial giants of Citibank (US) and Commerzbank (). Transactions at foreign financial mar- kets continue with an increasing pace. In particular, in 2007, some $1.2bn was acquired by banks in Azerbaijan by way of credit lines or charter capital. As of the beginning of 2008, foreign participation is registered in 21 banks, and in 8 out of these it exceeds 50% 6. The current stage of the banking sector development is characterized by an increased interna- tional competition and an intensifying flow of petrodollars into Azerbaijan. This requires, in turn, that local banks be more flexible in such areas as risk management in order to increase the scope of their operations. The primary goals of further development of the banking system of Azerbaijan can be rendered as the increasing transparency and the decreasing risk, the introduction of new banking technology, the involvement of an ever broader economic subjects to non-cash payments, and a spe- cific issue of creating a training center for the enhancement of professional level of top management that would allow them address complex tasks in the framework of increasingly competitive environ- ment. Among typical problems that hamper the efficiency of operations of local banks are: persis- tently high level of expenses, low level of capitalization, imperfection in internal structures, lack of possibility to acquire long term resources from international capital markets (e.g. via syndicated loans, Eurobond issues, diverse structured products), insufficient proliferation of the capital market, inadequate levels of corporate culture. In order to expand the volumes of lending to small and me- dium enterprises, further increase in bank capitals, as well as the creation of prerequisites for cheaper loans will be necessary. Market interest rates show an increase which, in turn, is related to higher inflation rates. As of the year-end 2007, there were 1.8 million savers, of which some 83% had their savings insured; by 2008, the coverage of the insured deposit is limited at AZN 6000 and it is expected to increase in successive years. Principal types of savings are either accumulations for the purchase of residence, or special long-term deposit savings. The low income section of the population is inadequately covered by banking services. In this connection, it will be necessary to intensify such activities as utility payment and other services that do not require supporting balances on accounts. Along these lines, salary disbursements through plas- tic cards are of significance. In Q3 2007 the number of ATMs exceeded 1230, with 765 located in the capital city. The number of POS terminals is 4242, with 3826 in Baku. Pension payments and plastic cards are among widely used banking services. The spread of banking services is facilitated by about 500 branches 7. Combined indicators in a ranking table form of basic activities of banks in Azerbaijan for 2006 and 2007 are presented in Appendix 2. Detailed information on member banks of ABA presented in this Summary suggests that, de- spite global financial challenges, dynamic development of Azerbaijan banking system proves its ca- pability to achieve the world standards and competitiveness within a few years.

International banking evaluation – bank On 17.10.2007, Fitch Ratings confirmed the ranking long-term Issuer Default Rating (IDR) of the Bank as -. The short-term IDR rating was confirmed as , the individual rating as D/E, the support rating as 5, and the support level rating as “no support”. The IDR forecast re- mained Stable. The ratings reflect the bank’s small scale regarding international standards, risks of the increasing loans, the still big con- centration of loans, and certain weak points in the business environment in Azerbaijan. But they also take into account the bank’s good profitability, the adequate quality of its assets and the variety of its financing directions. Local awards and recognition In 2006, “Azerdemiryolbank” was awarded the “Success” National Award on 2 nominations. The greatest success for the bank was to win the confidence of population and of financial institutions. Thus, “Azerdemiryolbank” was awarded “Etimad Bank”. The Second award “on gift given to Social Economical develop- ment of Regions” was given to the Bank for its active participation in social and economic de- velopment of the regions. The Bank’s PR man- ager, Mr. Zamig Shukurov, was announced the winner in the nomination “Most active PR ser- vice in 2006 in the banking system” as a results of the first annual competition “Most Stable Bank” (www.press-release.az).
