  • Monetary Policy Rule and Taylor Principle in Mongolia: GMM and DSGE Approaches
    International Journal of Financial Studies Article Monetary Policy Rule and Taylor Principle in Mongolia: GMM and DSGE Approaches Hiroyuki Taguchi * and Ganbayar Gunbileg Graduate School of Humanities and Social Sciences, Saitama University, 225 Shimo-Okubo, Sakura-ku, Saitama 338-8570, Japan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +81-48-858-3324 Received: 22 October 2020; Accepted: 11 November 2020; Published: 16 November 2020 Abstract: This article aims to examine the monetary policy rule under an inflation targeting in Mongolia with a focus on its conformity to the Taylor principle, through two kinds of approaches: a monetary policy reaction function by the generalized-method-of-moments (GMM) estimation and a New Keynesian dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model with a small open economy version by the Bayesian estimation. The main findings are summarized as follows. First, the GMM estimation identified an inflation-responsive rule fulfilling the Taylor principle in the recent phase of the Mongolian inflation targeting. Second, the DSGE-model estimation endorsed the GMM estimation by producing a consistent outcome on the Mongolian monetary policy rule. Third, the Mongolian rule was estimated to have a weaker response to inflation than the rules of the other emerging Asian adopters of an inflation targeting. Keywords: monetary policy rule; Taylor principle; Mongolia; inflation targeting; GMM; the New Keynesian DSGE model; E52; E58; O53 1. Introduction Mongolia has evolved her monetary policy framework, since she transformed the economic system from a centrally planned economy to a market-based economy in the early 1990s. In 1991, the Bank of Mongolia (BOM) started implementing monetary policy as a central bank.

  • List of Certain Foreign Institutions Classified As Official for Purposes of Reporting on the Treasury International Capital (TIC) Forms
    NOT FOR PUBLICATION DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY JANUARY 2001 Revised Aug. 2002, May 2004, May 2005, May/July 2006, June 2007 List of Certain Foreign Institutions classified as Official for Purposes of Reporting on the Treasury International Capital (TIC) Forms The attached list of foreign institutions, which conform to the definition of foreign official institutions on the Treasury International Capital (TIC) Forms, supersedes all previous lists. The definition of foreign official institutions is: "FOREIGN OFFICIAL INSTITUTIONS (FOI) include the following: 1. Treasuries, including ministries of finance, or corresponding departments of national governments; central banks, including all departments thereof; stabilization funds, including official exchange control offices or other government exchange authorities; and diplomatic and consular establishments and other departments and agencies of national governments. 2. International and regional organizations. 3. Banks, corporations, or other agencies (including development banks and other institutions that are majority-owned by central governments) that are fiscal agents of national governments and perform activities similar to those of a treasury, central bank, stabilization fund, or exchange control authority." Although the attached list includes the major foreign official institutions which have come to the attention of the Federal Reserve Banks and the Department of the Treasury, it does not purport to be exhaustive. Whenever a question arises whether or not an institution should, in accordance with the instructions on the TIC forms, be classified as official, the Federal Reserve Bank with which you file reports should be consulted. It should be noted that the list does not in every case include all alternative names applying to the same institution.

  • Mongolia's Private Sector Led Renewable Energy Programme
    MONGOLIA’S PRIVATE SECTOR LED RENEWABLE ENERGY PROGRAMME WWW.NDC-CLUSTER.NET/GOOD-PRACTICES WWW.TRANSPARENCY-PARTNERSHIP.NET/GOOD-PRACTICE-DATABASE LAST UPDATED: ________ 11/2019 ACTION AREA: _________ Mitigation FOCUS AREA: __________ Financing COUNTRY: ____________ Mongolia SECTORS INVOLVED: ____________ Energy TIMEFRAME: __________ 2017 – 2027 CASE SUMMARY: _______ Mongolia has committed to supply 30% of the country’s energy through renewable energy by 2030 as part of its NDC targets. However, financial barriers such as high interest rates and prohibitively short tenors have limited renewable energy investments. As a result, renewable energy projects were more expensive to realise than coal-fired power plants. The development of a 10MW solar photovoltaic (PV) farm located in the Sumber Soum area of Mongolia has been jointly implemented by the XacBank and the Mongolian project developer ESB Solar Ener- gy, following the Green Climate Fund’s (GCF) approval in late 2017. GCF supported the solar power plant project through a long-term concessional loan, co-financed by domestic sources, including project developers. The project started feeding into Mongolia’s main electricity grid in the first quarter of 2019. The project is forecasted to generate 15,395 megawatt hours (MWh) of electricity each year and thus reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 12,270 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (tCO2eq) annually. Moreover, the solar plant comes with significant environmental and social co-benefits. It is projected to save 170,000,000 litres of water, which would otherwise have been required by a coal- fired generator. This project is a boon for the worsening air quality conditions of the Mongolian capi- tal Ulaanbaatar, which has been plagued with problems of air pollution for many years.

  • CAPITAL FLOWS and THEIR IMPLICATION for CENTRAL BANK POLICIES: the CASE of MONGOLIA by Gan-Ochir Doojav Doojav Ganochir@Y
    CAPITAL FLOWS AND THEIR IMPLICATION FOR CENTRAL BANK POLICIES: THE CASE OF MONGOLIA ♣♣ by Gan-Ochir Doojav ♣ [email protected] December 2008 1. General Framework and Major Capital Flows Management Policies 1.1 General Framework At the beginning of the transition to market economies, Mongolia had relatively closed capital accounts. In Mongolian case, economic liberalization, such as reduction of price controls, floating exchange rates, the privatization of state-owned enterprises and trade and capital liberalization processes, was implemented in 1990s. Most of the changes had occurred between 1990 and 1993. Also The Government of Mongolia has accepted the obligations of Article VIII, Sections 2, 3, and 4 of the IMF Articles of Agreement, with effect from February 1, 1996 1. The implementations of the current and capital account liberalization have had both negative and positive impacts in the economy. Mongolia was the first country in transition to join the World Trade Organization (WTO) in January 1997. The opening-up of Mongolian markets (foreign trade liberalization ) as well as the integration into the multilateral trading system under the WTO has created not only new opportunities and prospects for economic development of Mongolia but also limitations and restrictions for its domestic policies. Like other SEACEN countries, liberalization of financial market and capital account has resulted in large capital inflows in Mongolia. On the other hand, the inflows were motivated by good macroeconomic performance and strong demand of foreign investors in mining and financial sectors. The large capital inflows has financed a higher economic growth, although it has created pressures that lead to inflation, real appreciation of the exchange rate, and a reduction in the domestic interest rate in recent years.

  • Classification of Accounts Guide Last Updated – January 2018
    Classification of Accounts Guide Last updated – January 2018 Contents Part I: General introduction Part II: Residence Part III: Sector categories Part IV.1 – IV.2: Industrial classification Part IV.3: Relationship between sector and industrial classifications Part V.1: Sector components (ESA 10) and sub components Part V.2: List of countries 1 Part I Classification of Accounts Guide – General Introduction I.1 Foreword This guide is intended for all institutions completing a range of Bank of England statistical returns. It describes the two most important systems of classification used in compiling economic and financial statistics in the United Kingdom – the economic sector classification, and the industrial classification. This guide is intended to serve both as an introduction for newcomers and as a source of reference. The nomenclature in the sector classification is in line with international standards – in particular, the European System of National and Regional Accounts (abbreviated to ‘ESA10’). In addition, the analysis of industrial activity is in line with the 2007 standard industrial classification of economic activities (SIC) introduced by the Office for National Statistics. Those without knowledge of accounts classification are recommended to refer to the ‘Guide to Classification’ (Part I Section 3) which takes the reader through the main questions to be answered to help classify accounts correctly. The system of classification used in this guide is solely for statistical purposes. Parts II to IV of the guide describe the main aspects of the classification system in more detail, including lists of examples of institutions, or a web link reference, for many categories. I.2 An introduction to the classification of accounts Sector and industrial classification To understand the underlying behaviour which is reflected in movements in economic and financial statistics, it is necessary to group those entities engaged in financial transactions into broad sectors with similar characteristics.

  • The Bank of Mongolia the BANK of MONGOLIA
    THE BANK OF MONGOLIA THE BANK OF MONGOLIA ANNUAL REPORT 2020 FOREWORD BY THE GOVERNOR OF THE BANK OF MONGOLIA On behalf of the Bank of Mongolia, I extend my sincere greetings to all of you and am pleased to present the Bank of Mongolia's annual report. It was a year marked with facing unprecedented challenges economically and socially. The Mongolian economy contracted by 5.3 percent in 2020, the worst contraction in the past 20 years, driven by non-economic shock. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic affecting every country across all sectors and people's lives, we successfully overcame economic and financial challenges together. In this regard, highlighting 3 crucial courses of actions: First, the Bank of Mongolia is taking necessary measures following international experience and laws to reduce the negative impact on the economy and the financial sector, to alleviate the financial difficulties and pressures of citizens, businesses, and financial institutions during the COVID-19 pandemic. The monetary policy outlook was eased through countercyclical measures, and the policy rate was reduced from 11 percent to a historically low of 6 percent. These policy measures will have a direct impact on economic recovery and lower interest rates. Second, Mongolia was removed from the Financial Action Task Force (FATF)'s list of jurisdictions under increased monitoring in a short amount of time. The European Commission also decided to remove Mongolia from its list of high-risk third countries with strategic deficiencies in their regime on anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing. Third, the togrog's exchange rate has remained stable despite the pandemic.
