| Concepts and definitions: |
The international investment position of RA is compiled according to the methodology of the 6th edition of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) balance of payments and international investment position manual (https://www.imf.org/external/pubs/ft/bop/2007/pdf/bpm6.pdf). |
| Scope and classifications: |
The international investment position of RA is compiled on the basis of reports collected from financial organizations, as well as information received from various departments of RA. The RA Statistical Committee is the main partner agency supporting the Central Bank of the Republic of Armenia in the preparation of the international investment position. The international investment position is a statistical report that shows a country's external financial assets and liabilities at a specific point in time. |
| Revision: |
Conducting external sector statistics, the Central Bank of Armenia regularly carries out improvement works on the items forming the international investment position, which are reflected in the annual revisions of external sector statistics (as a rule, at the end of June of each year). Current revisions mainly refer to the current year and are caused by data adjustments by reporting entities. It is necessary to note that some items need periodic review and additional research is constantly being carried out on them. |
