"ARMECONOMBANK" OJSC company uses the scoring system of evaluation developed and implemented by the Bank.

The factors affecting the SCORE grade are: credit burden, availablity of recorded income, previously overdue liabilities and etc. Each equest of credit history may have a negative impact on SCORE grade of the particular applicant and reduce it.

The customer's credit history and score can be improved by taking the following steps:

  • fully repay existing overdue loan obligations and exclude even one day delays in performance of obligations on current loans;
  • avoid becoming a guarantor for loans of untrustworthy persons in the future;
  • have recorded income.
