A. BACKGROUND

The World Bank (WB) and the European Union (EU) agreed to implement a new hybrid Trust Fund (TF) aimed to support the efforts of the Government of Mongolia (GOM) to improve fiscal discipline, public financial management (PFM), as well as transparency and accountability processes for strengthened governance in Mongolia. 

This new TF, through both Recipient Executed (RE) and Bank Executed (BE) interventions, will serve two main purposes. Firstly, it will complement and expand the ongoing technical assistance the WB is providing through the Strengthening Fiscal and Financial Stability (SFFS) Project. Secondly, this TF will support the GOM in advancing the current efforts toward increasing transparency, participation and accountability in fiscal matters as well as in strengthening its capacity to deal with non-technical drivers of the reform process that prevent state agencies from implementing policies and regulations as intended. 

The Component 2 of the TF will focus primarily on supporting the specific needs of the GOM to establish sound fiscal discipline, to improve expenditure management by strengthening the budget credibility, to establish the foundations for medium-term budgeting, and to re-orient public investment to strategic projects linked to the diversification of the economy. Five priority areas will constitute the core of the component: (i) development and implementation of a public financial management reform plan and inter-agency coordination; (ii) strengthening budget preparation and execution towards results-based medium-term budgeting; (iii) improving budget reporting and transparency by increasing the comprehensiveness of fiscal and financial information and reporting; (iv) improving the management of contingent liabilities, through improving the existing governance framework for recognizing, managing, and disclosing contingent liabilities; and (v) strengthening public investment management, through the development and implementation of mechanisms for prioritizing capital project proposals and cost-benefit analysis.

The GOM has undertaken reforms to gradually bring about fiscal discipline and strengthen the PFM system. The first phase of reforms between 2003 and 2008 established the basic elements of the system, including strengthening internal controls, cash management, and accounting and reporting. The second phase of reforms between 2008 and 2011 included some improvements in fiscal policy, budget planning, and decentralization of roles and resources to subnational governments. More recently, the GOM approved in late 2018 an overall PFM strategy that is ambitious but attempts to set forth general principles and areas of intervention. This document is very detailed and outlines a significant number of activities in the majority of the PFM areas, in line with the structure of the PEFA assessment. In spite of the great amount of work and effort by the government put into preparing this document, the associated strategic vision does not clearly emerge from it as many different areas are covered pointing at a variety of, sometimes competing, needs. Therefore, this strategy needs additional finetuning in terms of strategizing and sequencing the ongoing and future interventions necessary to further strengthen the PFM system in the country.

Despite past efforts, Mongolia still faces challenges related to the efficiency, effectiveness and transparency of the PFM system. Specifically, the GOM needs to work towards addressing the lack of alignment of expenditures and revenue outputs with the originally approved budget, the poor quality of cash flow forecast, and the unpredictability in availability of funds, all of which have weakened budget credibility and diminished public policy effectiveness. Hence, to address such issues and overcome the challenges, the Ministry of Finance (MOF) wants to refine the PFM Reform Strategy and implement the strategy successfully.
