DescriptionOlga Burtseva, head of the FTL Advisers division, told RBC that a number of Armenian banks have already completely and unilaterally ceased all transactions involving physical rubles. Armenian commercial banks fear secondary U.S. sanctions and are experiencing difficulties in collecting Russian currency. Rumors are circulating on the financial market that the Central Bank of Armenia may issue a single systemic directive for the country’s entire banking sector. Pari is offering a bet on whether the Armenian regulator will decide to impose a complete official ban on accepting cash rubles in the second half of the month.
ConditionsYes: if, between July 16 and 27, 2026, the Central Bank of Armenia (CBA) issues an official decree prohibiting or temporarily suspending transactions involving the acceptance and deposit of Russian rubles in cash at all commercial banks in the republic.No: if, by July 28, 2026, the Central Bank of Armenia has not issued such a uniform prohibitive regulatory act (decisions will remain at the discretion of individual banks).
