According to the National Statistics Office, Mongolia’s money supply (M2) reached MNT 47.1 trillion at the end of December 2025, up by MNT 3.8 trillion, or 8.7 percent, year on year. The growth was mainly driven by a MNT 4.0 trillion (18.3 percent) increase in deposits in domestic currency.

Long-Term Agreement to Be Concluded to Increase Fuel Supplies www.montsame.mn

Mongolia has agreed to conclude a long-term agreement with the China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) to increase fuel supplies.
The issue of expanding fuel supplies, ensuring stable supply, and broadening bilateral energy cooperation was discussed during a meeting between Minister of Industry and Mineral Resources Damdinyam Gongor and representatives of the state-owned CNPC, according to the Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources. The sides also agreed to actively cooperate in the implementation of the project to construct a natural gas pipeline transporting gas from the Russian Federation to the People’s Republic of China via the territory of Mongolia.
During the meeting, Minister Damdinyam emphasized that Mongolia is pursuing a policy aimed at ensuring a stable supply to meet its domestic fuel demand.
Representatives of the China National Petroleum Corporation presented their plans and opportunities to stabilize and increase fuel supplies to the Mongolian market and expressed their readiness to strengthen cooperation in the coming years.
Currently, Mongolia imports approximately 95 percent of its fuel consumption from the Russian Federation and the remaining 5 percent from the People’s Republic of China.

Conclusion Reached to Construct Multi-Level Interchanges at Five Locations www.montsame.mn

Plans are underway to implement the “Multi-Level Interchange” project as part of efforts to develop an efficient road and transport network in the Capital city.
Specifically, the Capital City Governor’s Office reported that a general feasibility conclusion has been reached to implement the project in the first phase at five locations. These include the Monos intersection, the MITS area, the Officers’ Palace roundabout, the pedestrian overpass along Naadamchdyn Road, and the bridge structure on the eastern embankment near the Nart residential complex.
By separating traffic flows through grade separation and creating multi-level interchanges, the project is expected to significantly reduce vehicle conflict points, shorten waiting times caused by traffic signals, and markedly increase road capacity. For instance, in the area surrounding the “Nart” residential complex in Bayanzurkh district, the flood protection embankment currently disrupts road connectivity, forcing drivers to detour via Narny Road and Peace Avenue. This situation increases the load on main roads and also limits rapid response readiness during emergencies.
Therefore, constructing a bridge structure over the embankment would restore road connectivity, shorten travel distance and time for residents, and help alleviate congestion on the city’s major thoroughfares. In other words, implementation of the “Multi-Level Interchange” project is expected to increase the average traffic speed by 7.1 percent.

An explosion at a factory in north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region has killed two people, left eight missing and injured 84, local authorities said Monday.
The explosion occurred at 3:03 p.m. on Sunday at a plate plant of Baogang United Steel in western Baotou City. It was caused by the blast of a 650-cubic-meter saturated water and steam spherical tank, Lin Li, executive vice mayor of Baotou, told a press briefing on Monday.
A total of 84 injured people are being treated in hospitals, with five in serious condition and the remaining 79 sustaining minor injuries, such as facial wounds and soft tissue contusions, according to Lin.
All the injured are in stable condition, and medical treatment is underway by leading medical experts of the autonomous region.
A rescue operation is in full swing, with an emergency rescue headquarters established after the accident to coordinate emergency, fire control, public security, health and market supervision departments.
The government has suspended production of the accident-hit plant and initiated city-wide safety overhaul of industrial and trade enterprises.
Investigations into the blast's environmental impact are ongoing. Monitoring by environmental protection departments has so far detected no adverse effects on the surrounding air or soil quality, and no wastewater has been generated from the incident. Utility services and residential heating in the area remain unaffected.
An investigation team established by the autonomous region is examining the cause of the accident and relevant liabilities. Legal actions have been taken against individuals responsible for the enterprise involved.

President Issues Decree on Developing Traditional Mongolian Medicine www.montsame.mn

The signing ceremony of the Presidential Decree of Mongolia on Developing Traditional Mongolian Medicine was held today at the State Palace. On the occasion, President Khurelsukh Ukhnaa delivered a speech. We present the speech in full.
“Esteemed citizens,
Distinguished doctors and scholars,
Honorable guests,
I extend to you my warm greetings on this auspicious day in the heart of winter.
Traditional Mongolian medicine is an inseparable part of our history, cultural heritage, customs, and spiritual identity. It is not merely a system for diagnosing and treating illnesses or a way of maintaining a healthy lifestyle, but a precious legacy rooted in the Mongolian worldview, way of life, and spiritual traditions.
Traditional Mongolian medicine has a history spanning more than 5,000 years. In 1681, Luvsandanzanjantsan – the Lama Gegeen of the Golden Lineage of Chinggis Khaan and a renowned physician – established the first formal school for training medical practitioners and maaramba (doctors), and authored instructional and clinical manuals that were put into use. Over the past 300 years, generations of physicians have preserved, developed, and disseminated the theory and knowledge of traditional medicine. Today, doctors and specialists in this field continue to make tangible contributions to safeguarding the health of our people.
In 2025, the rare and valuable manuscript ‘A Complete Record of the Body by Imperial Order’, long used as a textbook and reference work in traditional medicine, was inscribed on the UNESCO Memory of the World Register, marking an important step in promoting Traditional Mongolian Medicine internationally.
I am also pleased to note that hundreds of Mongolian traditional medicine doctors and specialists are providing high-quality diagnostic and treatment services in many countries, particularly in the Republic of Poland, thereby sharing the achievements of traditional medicine with the world.
On behalf of the Mongolian people, I extend my deepest gratitude to the scholars, physicians, and medical professionals who are dedicated to preserving, protecting, and promoting the knowledge of Traditional Mongolian Medicine and to safeguarding public health.
Esteemed citizens,
Doctors and scholars,
Honoring the legacy, achievements, and wisdom of Great Chinggis Khaan, and preserving, developing, and passing on the history, culture, heritage, and traditions of our ancestors to future generations, is a sacred duty of those who safeguard the hearth of the Great Mongol Empire.
To this end, as President, I have issued decrees to honor the portrait of Great Chinggis Khaan, restore the ancient capital city of Kharakhorum, revere and promote the morin khuur, a symbol of national pride, and compile a new 30-volume comprehensive history of Mongolia. These decrees are currently being implemented. We have also established the Great Khaan’s Museum and ceremonially enshrined the Golden Statue of Chinggis Khaan, the Great White Banner, and the State Khasbuu Seal. These decrees are currently being implemented.
To glorify the Mongolian horse, Mongolia’s national pride, the Head of State proposed the establishment of World Horse Day, which was approved by the United Nations General Assembly. As a result, countries around the world now celebrate World Horse Day annually on the day of Mongolia’s National Naadam Festival.
This year marks the 345th anniversary of the establishment of the first formal school of traditional Mongolian medicine and the development of the traditional medicine service system in Mongolia. In commemoration of this historic milestone, I have today issued the Decree on Developing Traditional Mongolian Medicine.
Through this decree, the Government of Mongolia is tasked with improving the legal framework of the sector, supporting development based on advanced technologies and artificial intelligence, implementing an integrated human resources policy, and ensuring the quality and safety of traditional medicine production.
Preparing a skilled and capable next generation is of vital importance. Attention must be given to reviving and developing the traditional mentor–apprentice system grounded in talent, ethics, and compassion. I emphasize that the dedication, cooperation, unified organization, and coherent policies of scholars, physicians, and professionals in the field are essential to advancing Traditional Mongolian Medicine.
As Head of State, I will consistently support efforts to study, deepen, develop, and disseminate the theory, knowledge, and cultural heritage of Traditional Mongolian Medicine.
I sincerely hope that Traditional Mongolian Medicine will continue to flourish through the ages and spread throughout the world.
May Mongolia prosper eternally under the power of the Eternal Blue Sky.”

In 2025, Mongolia exported 83.9 million tons of coal www.open.kg

The statement from the General Department of Customs and Taxation notes that this result exceeds the figures for the same period last year by 5.6 percent.
The economy of Mongolia is significantly dependent on the mining sector and the export of mineral resources. From January to December 2025, mining products, including coal, copper, and iron ore, accounted for 99.2 percent of the country's total exports.
The majority of coal mining in Mongolia is carried out at the Tavan Tolgoi deposit — one of the largest undeveloped deposits of coking and thermal coal in the world, located in the southern aimag of Ömnögovi. The estimated reserves of this deposit are 6.5 billion tons, of which a quarter consists of high-quality coking coal.

Ayan Hotels and Resorts Announces the Opening of Ayan Zalaat Hotel & Spa in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia www.hospitalitynet.org

In a protected valley at the edge of Mongolia's capital, where monks once sought enlightenment beneath the sacred Bogd Khan Mountain, Ayan Hotels & Resorts unveils Ayan Zalaat Hotel & Spa as the brand's flagship luxury destination near Mongolia's capital city.
Set on a private estate near the Bogd Khan Uul UNESCO Biosphere Reserve—one of the world's oldest protected natural areas, safeguarded since 1778—Ayan Zalaat is a destination in itself. The 32-room retreat brings together refined contemporary design, ten distinctive dining and social venues, expansive wellness and cultural spaces, and immersive experiences typically found in resorts several times its size, all delivered through highly personalized service within a secluded natural setting. Ayan Hotels & Resorts is owned by Mongolyn Alt (MAK) LLC, one of Mongolia's most diversified privately owned conglomerates.
Zalaat Valley has been revered since the 12th century as a place of spiritual study and retreat, drawing monks to its quiet hills for meditation and reflection. Today, Ayan Zalaat honors this legacy as a guiding principle, creating a sanctuary where renewal, stillness, and cultural integrity remain central to the guest experience.
Conceived by the internationally renowned Mabetex Group, with interior design led by Italian architect Fabio Friso, Ayan Zalaat reflects a global design collaboration that brings European craftsmanship into dialogue with Mongolia's cultural and natural landscape. Custom-designed furniture, bespoke millwork, and Italian marble elements were created exclusively for the property, drawing on a network of artisans and specialists from across Europe and beyond.
Ayan Hotels & Resorts is a Mongolian luxury hospitality group dedicated to building culturally grounded destinations that meet international standards of design, service, and experiential depth. Named after a Sanskrit phrase meaning "gift from God," Ayan Zalaat embodies the brand's vision to express a strong Mongolian identity through excellence in every detail. Central to this philosophy is an exceptional investment in people, with a full-time team of 130-140 professionals, underscoring a long-term commitment to service mastery, training, and cultural stewardship.
Hotel Design & Accommodations
Each of the 32 guest rooms and suites is designed as a serene private retreat where European craftsmanship meets Mongolia's sense of space and quiet. Floor-to-ceiling windows ace face Bogd Khan Mountain and invite natural light and connect interiors to the surrounding landscape, while bespoke furniture, premium textiles, and carefully layered lighting create a sense of warmth and restraint.
Italian marble bathrooms feature deep soaking tubs and separate showers, complemented by soundproofed walls, blackout curtains, and precision climate control for year-round comfort. The design is a unique blend of Mongolian culture with contemporary design with thoughtful touches to showcase the brand's identity and deep connection to the Mongolian spirit such as Mongolian premium wool carpets and views that invite the surroundings in. From Deluxe Rooms to the two-bedroom Amala Presidential Suite, each accommodation balances contemporary luxury with the tranquility of Mongolia's vast, unhurried environment.
Cultural Offerings
At the soul of Ayan Zalaat are two spaces that transcend traditional hospitality offerings. The Ayan Theatre, richly adorned with traditional motifs and vibrant patterns, serves as a living stage for Mongolia's most treasured art forms, from khöömei throat singing to UNESCO-recognized Biyelgee folk dance—presented as cultural transmission rather than performance alone.
Adjacent to the theatre, the Soma Temple functions as a traditional Mongolian spiritual sanctuary for meditation, ritual, and learning. Guests may engage with a resident Buddhist monk for teachings and mindfulness practices, offering rare access to the spiritual philosophies that have shaped Mongolian life for centuries.
Culinary Experiences
Rooted in the Mongolian tradition that a guest is sacred, Ayan Zalaat's culinary program extends generous hospitality through ten restaurants and lounges, each aligned with the hotel's architectural and cultural vision. Signature venues include Roma Ristorante, serving elevated Italian and Mediterranean cuisine; 8 Ounce Steakhouse & Grill, showcasing premium local and imported cuts; Lost in China, presenting refined regional Chinese fare; and The Nipponian Room, offering modern Japanese dining with sushi and teppanyaki experiences.
Additional venues include a cigar lounge reminiscent of James Bond sophistication, a sommelier-led wine cellar, a guest-exclusive rooftop terrace, an artisanal pâtisserie and coffee lounge, and the hotel's signature Ayan Lounge and Lobby Lounge, together forming a dynamic collection of dining and social spaces.
Spa and Wellness
Ayan Spa combines Mongolian cultural wisdom with Swiss medical wellness expertise. Developed in partnership with Clinique Nescens of Genolier, Switzerland, the spa offers advanced longevity and preventive care within architecturally refined spaces inspired by traditional Mongolian forms and Buddhist symbolism.
An immersive thermal journey—including an illuminated sauna, chromotherapy shower, crystalline salt room, and indoor aquatic area—anchors the experience, complemented by signature treatments, Nescens longevity protocols, fitness and mindfulness programs, and personalized nutritional support. The spa serves as the wellness heart of Ayan Zalaat, where scientific rigor and cultural integrity meet in both space and service.
Meetings and Events
Ayan Zalaat is well suited for group clientele, offering more than 550 m² (5,920 ft²) of flexible function space across five venues for meetings, social events, weddings, and private gatherings. The multifunctional Ayan Ballroom accommodates up to 120 guests in an atmosphere that is both bright and elegant, while the boardroom-style Ananda and the Ayan Cinema provide distinctive settings for presentations and executive meetings. What sets gatherings at Ayan Zalaat apart is the ability to pair professional events with curated cultural programming, integrated wellness experiences, and private entertainment options. Audiovisual equipment, including sound systems, microphones, and presentation screens, is available complimentary, and the hotel's entertainment areas may be reserved for group functions.
Additional Experiences and Activities
On-site leisure offerings include a private cinema, bowling alley, karaoke room, games lounges, and scenic walking paths throughout the estate. Beyond the hotel, Ayan Zalaat curates fully bespoke journeys across Mongolia, working with intimate camps, off-road expeditions, and small-plane partners to access remote regions, whether for multi-day explorations or short immersive excursions.
Looking Ahead
Phase two of development will expand Ayan Zalaat with 21 residential villas and a 16-story Sports Center featuring 63 hotel rooms, serviced apartments, a Kids Play Center, and office space for local and international clientele. Recreational facilities—including tennis, basketball, and curling—will be adaptable for events, including a ballroom accommodating up to 400 guests. Plans also include introducing a helicopter service and luxury "glamping" experiences, extending the property's reach into Mongolia's natural landscapes.
Ayan Zalaat is more than a hotel; it is an expression of Ayan Hotels & Resorts' long-term vision for Mongolia as a globally sought-after destination. Rooted in a sacred landscape and shaped by a deep investment in people, the property reflects a belief that true luxury is built slowly—through place, culture, and human connection—setting a new benchmark for luxury hospitality in Mongolia.
Ayan Zalaat Hotel & Spa is now open and accepting reservations. Nightly rates from USD 850.
