In particular, dividends from the International Bank of Azerbaijan (IBA) are envisaged in the amount of 120 million manat ($70.5 million), from Azer-Turk Bank OJSC – 750,000 manat ($441,176), from Azerlotereya - 1 million manat, from large state-owned companies - 46 million manat ($27 million), from Agrarkredit non-bank credit institution - 200,000 manat ($117,647),” said the message.
