Abstract
Mongolia has realized important progress
toward more efficient and sustainable public finances over
the last decade. However, weaknesses in the institutional
and structural reform agenda threaten Mongolia's fiscal
balances. The government proposes to grow at 6 percent. This
report discusses policy measures needed to ensure success of
government programs. Following the introduction, chapter 2
discusses past performance and provides a brief discussion
of recent economic and social developments. Chapter 3
discusses future challenges, analyzes the main sources of
fiscal pressure on Mongolia's budget, and proposes a
sustainable macroeconomic reform path. Chapter 4 evaluates
budget execution processes. Chapter 5 discusses the impact
of intergovernmental fiscal relations on fiscal balances,
and service delivery. Chapter 6 discusses governance.
Chapter 7 analyzes budget formulation and policy
coordination processes. Chapter 8 discuses public sector
resource allocations, with particular emphasis on education,
health, and the environment sectors. The report concludes by
discussing the importance of putting into place measures to
bridge the gap between existing public expenditure
management practices and those needed to improve the overall
performance of the Mongolian public sector, and proposes a
framework within which this can be achieved.
