The acquisition and upcoming launch of Divisa AM CJSC is intended to capture eastward growth for the company. Divisa Capital intends to use the new subsidiary as a gateway into the Eurasian Economic Union, which lies at the confluence of Russia, the Middle East and Eastern Europe.
According to Mushegh Tovmasyan, CEO of Divisa Capital in a recent statement on the acquisition, “Armenia has a very strong and highly regulated banking system, which includes the likes of HSBC and Credit Agricole, enabling the country to come through the recent global financial crises unscathed.

Speaking more on the subject exclusively to Finance Magnates, Mr. Tovmasyan mentioned the propensity of Russian regulation as a possible influent of Divisa’s PoP sector. Ultimately, “We don’t cater to retail clients and rarely engage in marketing activity thus the regulation will not affect us at all. Our target audience is the Banks and hedge funds in Russia.”
While Divisa has eyed the Middle Eastern region as a whole, several specific countries became clear as possible targets to be leveraged by the new affiliate’s strategic location, including “the UAE, Lebanon, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia based on current industry trends, but the time zone allows us to cater to a much larger region extending to countries in Africa and Southeast Asia,” he added.
