There is a series of arguments that decentralization of governments enhances growth by improving allocation efficiency. However, the empirical studies have shown mixed results for industrialized and developing countries and some of them have demonstrated that there might be a threshold level of economic development below which decentralization is not effective. Developing and transition countries have developed a variety of forms of fiscal decentralization as a possible strategy to achieve effective and efficient governmental structures. A generalized principle of decentralization due to the country specific circumstances does not exist. Therefore, decentra- lization has taken place in different forms in various countries at different times, and even exactly the same extent of decentralization may have had different impacts under different conditions. -

Examining the Impact of Grazing Pressure and Severe Winter
EXAMINING THE IMPACT OF GRAZING PRESSURE AND SEVERE WINTER DISASTERS ON LIVESTOCK POPULATION DYNAMICS IN MONGOLIAN RANGELAND A Thesis by WEIQIAN GAO Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Chair of Committee, Richard Conner Co-Chair of Committee, Jay Angerer Committee Member, William Grant Head of Department, Kathleen Kavanagh December 2016 Major Subject: Ecosystem Science and Management Copyright 2016 Weiqian Gao ABSTRACT Rangelands in Mongolia provide biomass for livestock grazing and support the environment that pastoralists have depended on for thousands of years. The quantity and quality of livestock and pasture are critically important to the pastoralists and entire country. Dzud is Mongolian term of severe winter disasters, which can be characterized by heavy snowfall, extreme low temperatures and lack of access to forage and water. The overall research aim is to study the influence of grazing pressure and severe winter disasters on livestock population dynamics on rangeland in Mongolia. The primary objectives were to evaluate Mongolian rangeland grazing pressure and analyze its relationship with livestock losses both spatially and temporally, especially during the dzud periods; in addition, simulation modeling was used to examine thresholds of forage use, extreme low temperature and snowfall conditions on livestock population dynamics. During the period from 2000 to 2014, the number of hectares delineated as overgrazed was highest in 2014, and was lowest in 2003. Large areas of overgrazing were identified in the central and southern portions of the country. Land areas that were consistently overgrazed (> 10 years) totaled 8.6% of the total land area in Mongolia. -

Unearmarked funds to replenish DREF are encouraged. Mr. Ganbaatar’s family was entitled to food and non-food assistance from the DREF cold waves operation in March 2010 because the family has lost all the animals that belonged to them as well as those they were herding for a wage. In addition, the family has more than 3 children under 16 and mother is breastfeeding. During IFRC visit in April, it was reported that their food reserve will be enough until mid May and after that, the family will have no other solution to feed their children. Left without a single animal in the yard and having no alternative livelihood option, the parents were more than devastated about their children’s future but hide their emotions and worries to keep the family atmosphere warm and happy. -
Central Mongolia
© Lonely Planet Publications 101 Central Mongolia Roll out of Ulaanbaatar in a Russian jeep and you’ll only need to put a hill or two between yourself and the city before the vast steppes of cental Mongolia begin to unfold before your eyes. Verdant swaths of empty landscapes are sprinkled with tiny gers stretching to CENTRAL MONGOLIA the horizon while magical light plays through clouds and across the valleys. But central Mongolia offers more than steppes. Landscapes are broken by the forested hillsides of the Khan Khentii range, meandering rivers such as the Tuul and lunar-like lava fields spilling across central Arkhangai. The silhouette of a lone horseman on a hill or camels caravanning in the distance completes every perfect day. The rivers and back trails of Gorkhi-Terelj National Park beckon the outdoor enthusiast. At Khustain National Park you can break out the binoculars and spot the reintroduced takhi horse. Alternatively, set out from Ulaanbaatar on foot, climb the holy Bogdkhan Uul to the south of the city, and camp out by Mandshir Khiid. Travelling by horse is another great way to get around the region. Travellers with more time on their hands can spend weeks exploring the ancient sites and remote areas of the mighty Khangai and its surrounding plains. Central Mongolia’s aimags (provinces), Töv, Arkhangai and Övörkhangai, are the most vis- ited areas in the countryside. The roads and transport are far better here than in the rest of Mongolia, and there is plenty to see, including ancient monasteries, gorgeous lakes and many national parks. -

Annual Report 2019 the BANK of MONGOLIA
THE BANK OF MONGOLIA CENTRAL BANK OF MONGOLIA ANNUAL REPORT 2019 THE BANK OF MONGOLIA ANNUAL REPORT 2019 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. The year 2019 was a year of successful resolving challenges, and sustained recovery of Mongolian economy. The Bank of Mongolia's policies and activities aimed at ensuring sustainable economic growth, financial stability, accelerating the development of the financial markets and promoting institutional developments. Along with contributing to the economic growth, the monetary policy decisions also aimed at maintaining the medium term stability of the national currency. The inflation, measured by consumer price index, contained at 5.2 percent nationwide, 5 percent in Ulaanbaatar city which is in line with medium term targets, and real GDP growth reached 5.1 percent. International reserves reached to 4.3 billion US dollars which is covering 9 months of imports. Favorable external sector conditions, and prudent policies to stabilize macro economy contributed to building up international reserves. Rise in international reserves boosted confidence in domestic currency, positively affected credit ratings and enhanced economic immunity. In order to implement strategy to lower interest rates the following policies and measures were undertaken such as to contain inflation at target level, to buildup international reserves, to reduce dollarization, to enhance credit registry activities and to create a legal framework for consumer protection in financial services market. As a result of maintaining economic and financial stability and positive developments, the weighted average lending rate issued by banks dropped to 16.8%, which is the lowest level for the last eight years. -

FOREWORD Dear readers, It seems like only yesterday the Economic Policy and Competitiveness Research Center pub- lished its first report “Mongolia in World Competitiveness” in 2011. And today, we are pleased to offer the second report on Provincial Competitiveness, which employs the same method- ological approach as in “Mongolia in World Competitiveness”. In order for our provinces to achieve local growth and development, it is important to be able to compare them. What cannot be measured, cannot be monitored. And what cannot be monitored, cannot be improved. I am confident that this report will prove to be a valu- able source of information and wisdom for provincial administration and decision makers in identifying policy directions, planning ahead and improving future measures, and facilitating a favourable environment for local people and businesses to further improve their livelihood and revenue. -
