It should be noted that today in the region only 3 among 15 banks providing lending within Business Road Map-2020 program consider rural entrepreneurs' projects.
As the President said in his speech "the financial system does not sufficiently support industrialization of the country. Only 12 percents of loans of the whole banking sector are directed to industrial sector".
