Compensations to the insured depositors of Caucasus Development Bank and AtraBank are being paid starting from August 23. Clients of Atrabank can receive compensations in the branches the deposits were placed in. However, those who concluded the contract in the Khazar branch must approach to the bank’s main office.

Depositors of Caucasus Development Bank receive compensations at the bank’s main office.

Payment of compensations to insured depositors of Bank of Azerbaijan has been carried out since January 29, 2016 at branches of Muganbank and Rabitabank, and since September 8 at ADIF’s office.

Clients of Ganjabank receive compensations since February 4 at the branches of Rabitabank, Unibank and Kapital Bank.

Payment of compensations to insured depositors of Bank Standard started on October 11, 2016 at the bank’s main office and its branches in the regions of Azerbaijan and will continue for one year.

The licenses of all the ten banks were cancelled during 2016 as the aggregate capital of these banks didn’t meet the minimum requirements [50 million manats]. In general, they haven’t fulfilled the regulator’s instructions.

Thirty two banks are currently implementing their activities in the country.
