Of particular importance is government capacity to formulate and implement policies. The global society is making various efforts to promote knowledge sharing between countries and improve their policy capacity to tackle development issues and enhance global prosperity. Indeed, knowledge has taken on an ever greater importance as the world confronts this new global pandemic. In the crisis which physical interactions are highly limited, the value of knowledge-sharing is becoming evident since it is the most flexible and prompt instrument to develop and share timely solutions. When it comes to Korea’s economic development, knowledge laid the foundation for Korea’s unprecedented transformation from a poor agro-based economy into a modern industrialized nation with an open and democratic society. Technology transfer from abroad and educational investment helped expand the domestic knowledge stock and made this transformation possible. The Korean government could also accumulate invaluable practical lessons not found in a conventional textbook through the course of development. The Ministry of Economy and Finance (MOEF) of Korea introduced the Knowledge Sharing Program (KSP) in 2004 to share Korea’s development experience with the international community through joint research, policy consultations, and capacity-building activities. Since its inception, the program has played a vital role in supporting socio-economic development of partner countries around the world. Korea Development Institute (KDI) has participated in the KSP since the program’s launch and has been working with more than seventy foreign countries. KDI, Korea’s leading think- tank with an extensive experience in policy research, has provided solutions to the challenges that partner countries face in a variety of fields, ranging from industrial development to public-sector reform. In the 2019/20 KSP, KDI carried out twenty policy consultation projects including the one with Georgia, a new participant in KSP. Among these meaningful projects for mutual learning, this one was initiated by the Ministry of Finance of Mongolia (MOF) with the aim of “Establishment of Cross-border Securities Issuance and Investment Infrastructure to Advance the Mongolian Capital Market.” Upon the request of the MOF, the MOEF and KDI organized a research team consisting of Mongolian and Korean experts. The team conducted in-depth analysis of internal and external policy environments, identified Mongolia’s key development challenges, and offered policy recommendations and action plans. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the project this year, as it has done every aspect of our lives. Despite the unprecedented challenge, the project was successfully completed thanks to devotion from the teams from both countries. Throughout the process, I witnessed how collaborative efforts can lead to overcoming hardship, and learned the importance of knowledge-sharing as more and more countries seek to learn how others have dealt with challenges. On behalf of KDI, I would like to express my deepest appreciation to the Government of Mongolia and MOF for their collaboration in the project. In particular, I would like to extend my profound gratitude to His Excellency Minister Khurelbaatar Chimed of Ministry of Finance for his unwavering support. The completion of this project would not have been possible without their devotion. I also wish to thank the KSP consultation team— Senior Advisor Seok Dong Kim, Principal Investigator President Ho Yeol Lim, researchers Director Jae Woong Kim, Senior Specialist Ki Hoon Ro, Head of Team Heung Seok Ko, Head of Team Hoon Kim, and local consultants Chief of Depository Battulga Khatanbaatar, Specialist Amarbayasgalan Batbaatar and Specialist Undraa Nursed—for producing this report. This project benefited greatly from many others both inside and outside the Mongolian government, including Ms. J.Baigalmaa, CEO of Mongolian Central Securities Depository. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to all who have made valuable contributions to a successful completion of the project. I am also grateful to the Center for International Development of KDI, in particular Executive Director Dr. Sanghoon Ahn, Hokyung Bang, and Project Officer Ms. Yerim Kim and Jieun Song for their hard work and dedication to the project. I firmly believe that the KSP will serve as a stepping stone to further elevate mutual learning and economic cooperation between Mongolia and Korea, and hope it will contribute to their sustainable development.
