In October 2009 the Central Bank of Azerbaijan, BBVB and a number of banks - market makers of the money market (Demirbank, AGBank, SDS "Nikoil", Bank Standard, Pashabank, Unibank and Bank of Baku) - signed a collective agreement, which is the legal basis for a new segment of money market. Turan Bank and AFB Bank later joined the project.

Each of the banks participating in the agreement may attract credit funds amounting to no more than one million manat per month. The maximum term of the loan is no more than 30 days.
