This paper deals with the structure of periodic groups satisfying some further finiteness conditions. Among other results, it is proved that if \(G\) is a periodic group whose \(2\)-generator subgroups are soluble, then \(G\) has finite rank if and only if all its abelian subgroups have finite rank. Recall here that a group \(G\) is said to have finite rank if there exists a positive integer \(r\) such that every finitely generated subgroup of \(G\) can be generated by at most \(r\) elements.
