The authorities have taken bold steps in the last two years to modernize the Mongolian Stock Exchange (MSE) and put in place modern legal, regulatory and market infrastructure for the capital market.

Currently, the local capital market is not representative of the full universe of Mongolian enterprises that are operating in the country at present. As a result, it may be difficult to attract foreign investors interest if the country's most attractive firms are not listed domestically. One of the most important elements for a strong domestic capital market is a diversified institutional investor base, and the regulatory agencies involved should pursue a concerted strategy toward developing the investor base. Mongolia needs to provide an enabling environment to attract a diverse range of institutional investors participation, including investors from abroad. 2017-06-13T19:06:35Z 2017-06-13T19:06:35Z 2012-06 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/710651468060894015/Mongolia-Capital-market-technical-note http://hdl.handle.net/10986/27094 English en_US CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work :: Other Financial Accountability Study Economic & Sector Work East Asia and Pacific Mongolia
