Ameriabank Becomes the First Armenian Company in the List of the 100 Largest Companies on the London Stock Exchange as a Member of Lion Finance Group

Ameriabank as part of Lion Finance Group (LFG), has been included in the FTSE 100 index of one of the world’s leading stock exchanges, the London Stock Exchange.

Thus, as a member of LFG, Ameriabank is the first Armenian institution to be included in the top 100 on the London Stock Exchange, owing to the size of the Group’s market capitalization.

Having been listed on the London Stock Exchange since 2006, the Group’s inclusion in the FTSE 100 index takes place within two years after Ameriabank joined LFG. This testifies to the strategic importance of Ameriabank’s inclusion in the Group and to its significant contribution to the Group’s overall development.

Lion Finance Group will officially join the index on March 20, 2026, after the market closes, with the change taking effect on March 23, 2026. The FTSE 100 index includes such leading international companies from the financial and other sectors as HSBC (HSBA), Barclays (BARC), Lloyds Banking Group (LLOY), Rolls-Royce Holdings (RR), Unilever (ULVR), Coca-Cola (CCH, CCEP), AstraZeneca (AZN), and others. By its market capitalization, Lion Finance Group has surpassed such companies as Burberry (BRBY) and EasyJet (EZJ).

Artak Hanesyan, Chief Executive Officer of Ameriabank, emphasized the importance of the event not only for the Bank and the Group, but also for the region and Armenia:

“This is an important milestone and a strong signal in terms of international investor confidence. Being included in this London Stock Exchange index means that the international investor community has highly acknowledged both our strategy and the results delivered through its execution. Overall, inclusion in the FTSE 100 contributes to raising Armenia’s visibility and reputation. On this significant occasion, I would like to express special thanks to our team for their dedication and professionalism, as well as to our clients and partners for their trust and collaboration,” he said.

“Inclusion in the FTSE 100 index is the official recognition of the value our teams have created. This achievement highlights the strength of Lion Finance Group’s strategy, as well as its innovative, technology-driven and customer-centric approach across both the Georgian and Armenian markets. I believe this recognition will further strengthen international investor interest in the Group and support the attraction of new investments. I would like to thank every member of our team, whose professionalism and collective efforts made our inclusion in the FTSE 100 index possible,” - stated Archil Gachechiladze, CEO of Lion Finance Group.
