A. BACKGROUND

The Development Bank of Mongolia (DBM):

Overview

DBM was established in 2011 and its main policy mandate is to support sustainable economic and social development of Mongolia through financing of large-scale export-driven projects. The sole shareholder of DBM is the Government of Mongolia (GoM).

Lending Operation

Until 2017, DBM’s loan portfolio consisted of projects backed by the state budget and, secondly, projects implemented by corporates, state-owned companies and domestic commercial banks. Lending decisions were preapproved by the GoM. During its peak in 2016, loan portfolio reached MNT 6.0 trillion and loan book was primarily concentrated in the road, manufacturing and mining sectors. To align its lending operation to focus solely on bankable and none budget-related spending, total of MNT 3.2 trillion of loans backed by the state budget were transferred to the Ministry of Finance of Mongolia (MoF).

Since 2017, lending has been solely made to corporates, state-owned companies and domestic commercial banks. These projects are no longer backed by the state budget and relay on project cash flow and collateral as security. As such, project due diligence and credit risk management have to be robust to mitigate deterioration on asset quality. Lending decisions are now made at the Board level. At the end of 2020, look portfolio was MNT 2.8 trillion. Lending and guarantees portfolio consisted of mining – 33%, manufacturing – 32%, construction – 19%, commercial banks – 7%, power plants – 7% and the rest to none mining-related sectors. Going forward, DBM will focus more on affordable housing, renewable energy and labor-intensive none mining sectors.

Funding Activities

DBM raises funds by issuing bonds on the onshore/ offshore markets and by bilateral loans from international banks. Funds raised are either explicitly guaranteed or unguaranteed by the GoM. In 2012, DBM successfully accessed the international capital markets with the issuance of 5-year  USD 580.0 million senior notes guaranteed by the GoM. This was tender offered into GoM bonds upon maturity. Both GoM and Japanese Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC)Also, JBIC guaranteed 10-year JPY 30.0 billion bonds issued in 2013. In 2018, DBM issued 5-year USD 500 million unguaranteed senior notes in the international capital markets. At the end of 2020, funds raised totaled MNT 3.1 trillion of which 30% are explicitly guaranteed by GoM. Accessing the capital markets and repayment of these funds are dependent on efficiently managing the use of proceeds and successful implementation of projects.

Investments

DBM has invested into and established four subsidiary companies namely, Mongolian Mortgage Corporation (MIK), DBM Leasing LLC, DBM Asset Management Securities LLC, National Export Insurance LLC. At the end of 2020, total investments equaled MNT 175.0 billion.

Profitability

DBM’s profitability is driven by asset quality and provisions against loan losses. At the end of 2019, retained earnings was MNT (151.3) billion. Deterioration in asset quality and provisioning against none performing loans during 2020 is expected to increase losses significantly.
