We note the work of the Azerbaijani government, which has done everything possible to prevent a collapse of prices in the market. But the flow of funds for mortgage loans to support the construction was too dose. Moreover, the Central Bank of Armenia (CBA) decided that there is too increase mortgage lending. Recall that, as noted by Chairman of the Board of the Central Bank Avtandil Babaev, "AMF has already placed 55 million manat in the first issue, and is currently being hosted on the second issue of AZN 75 million, of which currently there are 33 million AZN. We believe that the amount of bonds AMF in 2010 is optimal, and there is no need to increase it "(Interfax-Azerbaijan"). According to him, the successful placement of bonds AMF due to two factors: the high confidence in the mortgage market and the availability of high liquidity in the banking sector, since banks consider mortgage bonds as an investment tool. A. Babayev said that the state budget has begun funding to support the social mortgage.
