Economy

After gaining independence in 1991, Azerbaijan became a

member of the International Monetary Fund, the World
Bank, the European Bank for Reconstruction and
Development, the Islamic Development Bank and the
Asian Development Bank.The banking system of
Azerbaijan consists of the Central Bank of Azerbaijan,
commercial banks and non-banking credit organizations.

Two-thirds of Azerbaijan is rich in oil and natural gas.The

region of the Lesser Caucasus accounts for most of the
country's gold, silver, iron, copper, titanium, chromium,
manganese, cobalt, molybdenum, complex ore and
antimony.In September 1994, a 30-year contract was
signed between the State Oil Company of Azerbaijan
Republic (SOCAR) and 13 oil companies, among them
Amoco, BP, ExxonMobil, Lukoil and Statoil.As Western oil
companies are able to tap deepwater oilfields untouched
by the Soviet exploitation, Azerbaijan is considered one of
the most important spots in the world for oil exploration
and development.Meanwhile the State Oil Fund of
Azerbaijan was established as an extra-budgetary fund to
ensure the macroeconomic stability, transparency in the
management of oil revenue, and the safeguarding of
resources for future generations.

Current GDP per capita of Azerbaijan is over 12.500 $ with

2014 data.
