ADB has supported the government’s efforts to stabilize and restructure the economy, strengthen necessary institutions and human resources, and build vital infrastructure helping Mongolia successfully complete the transition process.
To date, ADB has committed USD3.9 billion in cumulative lending, grant, and technical assistance for projects in agriculture, education, energy, finance, health, social protection, transport, urban and rural development, industry and trade, and information and communications technology.
