Mongolia has been recovering strongly from its economic crisis, with the help of an IMF support package

The Bank of Mongolia (BoM) is now governed by a new central bank law, implemented as part of a rescue package in the wake of the 2016 economic crisis.

Mongolia’s parliament handed three amended regulations to the BoM on March 21, including the central bank law, a banking law and a deposit insurance law. These were first submitted to the parliament in November 2017.

Amendments on money laundering and terrorist-financing prevention law will be released shortly, the BoM said last month.
