Mongolia eTrade Readiness Assessment
The eTrade Readiness Assessment of Mongolia is the thirty-third such assessment conducted by UNCTAD. The Assessment examines the current challenges and opportunities of the digital economy in Mongolia offering policy recommendations on how the government and development partners can maximize the benefits of digitalization for trade. The digital transformation underway in Mongolia is conducive to the development of e-commerce both at the domestic and cross-border levels. The assessment shows that public and private sector stakeholders have prioritized further facilitation of cross-border trade and logistics high-level political support and supportive legal framework among the key factors which could be conducive to e-commerce growth in Mongolia. This report is expected to contribute to the efforts of the Government of Mongolia to build a robust safe and business-friendly environment for e-commerce and digital economy development. Ensuring the potential benefits of e-commerce requires a strong prioritization from the government and a great commitment from development partners. With the eTrade for all partners and coordination through the United Nations Resident Coordination Office in Ulaanbaatar UNCTAD is committed to supporting Mongolia in its resolve to make e-commerce work for the country’s economic diversification and overall development.

Mongolia
Mongolia is a large sparsely populated country that lies between China and the Russian Federation with vast deserts covering a large part of its land mass (the Gobi Desert to the south and extending into northern China). The country is endowed with substantial mineral resources such as copper coal gold uranium and other rare metals and as such it is one of the lowest-cost mineral producers in the world. In particular it has among the largest copper and gold mines and coal deposits. However most of the reserves remain unexploited and unexplored. The government’s demand for a large share of the resource rents has been deterring major mining companies (although recently there has been some progress). Overall proven reserves are valued at around US$1 trillion and much of the country is yet to be prospected (IMF 2017).
