The Board of the Central Bank of the Republic of Armenia issued Resolution No. 166-N to amend Resolution No. 267-N regarding the reporting of suspicious transactions and business relationships. The amendments update the terminology in Form No. 106 and its completion procedure to align with the Law 'On the Securities Market' by replacing references to specific fund types with broader categories including investment fund managers and persons managing non-public funds. These changes ensure that the correct entities are identified as responsible for mandatory notifications under the Law 'On Combating Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing'.
