THE DEVELOPMENt BANK OF MONGOLIA

message from the chief


executive officer
Dear customers and cooperating entities,
It is my pleasure to present the report of the Development
Bank of Mongolia for 2013.
In the past year (2013) there was a 32.8% decrease in the sale
price of our countrys export coal and a 54% decrease in
foreign direct investment. These factors slowed economic
growth. However, in 2013, economic growth was 11.7% as
a result of a 20.7% increase in mining production, a 66.5%
increase in construction and a 17% increase in commerce.
During the reporting period, there was an increase in
the Development Banks loan portfolio of MNT1,686.6
billion, a figure which is greater than investments by the
states general budget funds. The Development Banks
lending to strategically-significant sectors, including roads,
railway, mining, processing, power plants, infrastructure,
housing and transport, will continue to serve as leverage
for the countrys accelerating development in the near
and ongoing future. At the end of the reporting period,
the Development Banks total assets were MNT3,230.9
billion, which equals 18.4% of our countrys gross domestic
product. Our Banks pre-tax profit was MNT35.1 billion and
we paid the state MNT17.7 billion in income tax.
The Development Banks foreign cooperation expanded
in 2013 we signed memorandum of understanding with
the Japan Bank for International Cooperation and the China
Development Bank. We issued Samurai bonds in Japanese
financial market, and reached an agreement to obtain
financing from the China Development Bank.
Here at the Development Bank, we have sincere and
genuine aspirations for the development of Mongolia,
and work with determination and tenacity to ensure our
countrys brighter future.
Sincere regards and great success to our customers and
organisations, both foreign and domestic, who cooperate
with the Development Bank of Mongolia!

17.5%
12.4%

11.7%

The 2013 preliminary performance estimations are that Mongolias


nominal gross domestic product (GDP) reached MNT17,600.0 billion.
GDP consisted of revenues from the agricultural (14.4%), industrial
(26.6%), construction (2.6%) and service (44%) sectors as well as
taxation income (12.4%).

6.4%

2010

2011

2012

Although real GDP growth reached 11.7%, slightly slower compared to


the previous year, the two-digit number increase was mainly achieved
thanks to the growth in the agricultural, mining, construction and
trade sectors.

by the Government and the Mongolbank as well as the funds raised in
the international financial markets. Accordingly, money supply growth
accelerated compared to the previous year.

INFLATION

Inflation measured by the CPI

The level of inflation measured by the consumer price index (CPI) was
12.5% in 2013, a slight decrease nationwide compared to the previous
year. Price increases of flour and flour products (16.2%), milk and dairy
products (20%), fruits (16.2%), non-alcoholic drinks (16.3%), the clothing,
textile and shoe category (17.6%) and education services (27.2%) were
the main factors affecting inflation. As the vast majority of Mongolias
total consumption is composed of imports, the weakening of the MNT
exchange rate against foreign currencies in the second-half of 2013
exerted substantial pressure on our country.

The year of 2013 was rather specific one in terms of budgetary and

sub-programmes in order to reduce the supply-caused inflation pressure.

FOREIGN TRADE
Mongolias foreign trade turnover totaled USD10,627.4 million in 2013,
falling by 4.5% compared to the previous year. Total exports were
USD4,272.7 million, a decrease of 2.6%, and total imports were USD6,354.7
million, a decrease of 5.7%. This resulted in a foreign trade deficit which
dropped to USD2,082.0 million.
In 2013, the sale price of our countrys coal fell by 32.8% resulting in
coal exports of USD1,100.0 million, a 41% decrease compared to the
previous year. Copper concentrate exports rose by 13.2%, iron ore
exports by 22.9%, crude oil and petroleum exports by 53.4% and gold
exports increased by 2.5 times. There was a 15.6% fall in machinery and
mechanical equipment imports and a 21.3% decrease in vehicle imports.
These strongly affected the overall decline in imports.

FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT


The foreign direct investment flowing into Mongolia in 2013 was
USD2,047.0 million, decreasing by 54% compared to the previous year.
The decline of the main performance indicators, which included export
coal and foreign direct investment led to a scarcity of foreign currencies
in Mongolia. As a result, the MNT rate weakened against other foreign
currencies. For example, the official rate of the American dollar (which
is the main foreign currency for payment clearing and settlement) was
MNT1,392 at the beginning of the year, but by the year-end this had
increased by 19.2% to MNT1,659.

INTERNATIONAL
DEVELOPMENT BANKS
WHAT IS A DEVELOPMENT BANK?
A development bank is a financial institution responsible for developing
socio-economic development objectives of a given country, and its
role is to grant loans to government related programs.

TYPES OF DEVELOPMENT
Policy bank government owned financial institution which supports economic development
policy and planing.
Special-purpose financial institution an entity that has a specific organisational structure
and duties such as: small and medium-enterprise development, agricultural intensification,
infrastructure development, environmental protection, housing etc.
Universal bank a type of bank that concurrently grants multiple types of financing in
addition to development policy financing.
Commercial development bank a bank that operates under commercial principles and
supports government based economic development programs.
THE DEVELOPMENT BANK OF MONGOLIA
In Mongolia, domestic commercial banks have a relatively high cost and impose limits on the
maximum amount of loans being granted. Thus, financing opportunities for major projects which
support economic development have been limited. Recently, as the foreign trade balance of
Mongolia has been in deficit, and infrastructure development has been relatively weak, it was
necessary to establish a Development Bank.
On 20 July 2010, the Government of Mongolia issued resolution to establish the Development
Bank of Mongolia. Following that, on 10 February 2011, the Parliament of Mongolia enacted the
Law on the Development Bank of Mongolia, stipulating that the Development Bank will be a
state-owned for-profit legal entity with the specific functions of conducting activities aimed at
financing major projects and programmes for thelomg term development of Mongolia.

The Development Bank of Mongolia - Annual Report 2013

THE INSTITUTIONS
DEVELOPMENT
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
As stipulated in the Law on the Development Bank of Mongolia, the highest management
authority of the Development Bank is its Shareholders Meeting or, during its out-of-session
periods, the Board of Directors (the BoD); the Government of Mongolia will be the Development
Banks shareholder and exercise its full powers at Shareholders meetings.
The Development Banks BoD, consisting of eight members appointed by the Government of
Mongolia, exercises its full powers. The BoDs three independent members are nominated by the
Mongolbank, the Mongolian National Chamber of Commerce and Industry and the Mongolian
Bankers Association, and are appointed by the Government. The BoD will have internal audit,
nomination and remuneration subcommittees. The independent members act as members of
the subcommittees.
On 30 August 2011, a triple management contract was entered into by and between the
Development Bank of Mongolia, the Korea Development Bank and the Management Team. In
accordance with the contract, a joint management team from the development banks performed
the executive management duties. Based on Government Resolution No.192 dated 25 May 2013
and in connection with the stabilisation of the Development Banks operations, the management
contract was terminated by BoD Resolution No.44 dated 16 July 2013 thereby the Mongolian party
was vested with the full executive management powers of the Development Bank of Mongolia
on a 100%basis. This BoD decision transferred full powers to Munkhbat Nanjid from Kim Jung Jin,
the former Executive Director.
The executive management team of the Development Bank of Mongolia manages and organises
the Banks day-to-day activities within the scope of the powers set forth in the Banks Charter and
by a contract entered into with the BoD. The team reports to the BOM.
The executive management team determines the structure and organisation of the Banks
committees. The Executive Management Committee, the Credit Committee and the Assets and
Liabilities Management Committee work efficiently, overseeing the Banks business operations
and ensuring the corporate governance norms.

On 31 December 2013, the total asset of the Development Bank was MNT3,230.9 billion growing by 3.6 times (MNT2,342.7
billion), compared to the end of the previous year. This was mainly due to the growth in net loans and advances by
MNT1,686.0 billion.
The Development Bank issued and traded USD580.0 million-bonds at an interest rate of 5.75% and 5 yearterm in 2012,
whereas it borrowed MNT1,987.2 billion from the Government in 2013. The Government financed this loan with funds
from the issue of Chinggis bonds which are repayable in 2018 and 2022. These led to a sharp increase in the Development
Banks creditworthiness, resulting in net loans and advances of MNT2,179.6 billion as of the end of the reporting period.

ROADS
Depending on Mongolias specifics such as its geographical location, sparse population settlement and landlocked
situation, it is necessary to expand good-quality road networks in order to meet its long-term development objectives, and
support the regional socio-economic development.
A medium-term programme New Development was approved by Parliament Resolution No.36 dated 25 June 2010. In
accordance with the programmes objectives to bring the urban planning, energy, engineering infrastructure and road
networks to an international standard, a goal was set to build 5,572 km of new roads by 2016, thereby increasing the road
networks. Within the framework of the activities to achieve the aforementioned objectives, the Government of Mongolia
implemented road projects aiming to connect the centres of Bayankhongor, Khuvsgul, Dornod, Umnugovi, Dundgovi
and Dornogovi provinces to the capital city in 2013. It approved the finance for five province-projects (except Dornogovi)
through the Development Bank with a total of MNT570.0 billion, using fundings from the Chinggis bonds. In 2013, the
centres of Bayankhongor and Dundgovi provinces were fully connected to the capital city via hard-paved roads. At the end
of the reporting period, Khuvsgul provinces road construction work completion was at 75%, Dornod provinces was at 61%
and DundgoviUmnugovi road constructions was at 73%. The plan is to commission the roads into operation within the
third quarter of 2014.
The Development Banks concurrent financing for a monitoring consultancy company as for each road project it financed
has had significant impact on the quality control improvement in addition to increasing the effectiveness of the investment
and financing.
27 rural road construction projects were financed through the Development Bank, using funds from the issue of Chinggis
bonds, i.e., the capital raised through Government securities trading. As of 31 December 2013, MNT339.4 billion was granted
to rural road construction projects and in total MNT10.7 billion to fourteen monitoring consultancy service projects. In
accordance with the approval to grant in total MNT570.0 billion to rural road projects, 61.0% of the total financing, i.e.,
MNT350.1 billion was granted as of the end of the reporting period. The table below demonstrates the approved budgets,

Development Bank of Mongolia


Notes to the Financial Statements 31 December 2013
(Expressed in thousands of Mongolian tugriks unless otherwise stated)

1. CORPORATE INFORMATION AND OPERATING ENVIRONMENT


The Development Bank of Mongolia (the Bank) is a Government-owned, policy-oriented statutory financial institution
established on 25 March 2011 pursuant to the Resolution No. 195 dated 20 July 2010 issued by the Government of
Mongolia and under the Law on Development Bank of Mongolia passed by the Parliament on 10 February 2011. The
Bank was registered with the Legal Entity Registration Office of the General Authority for State Registration and is the only
policy bank in Mongolia. The Bank conducts its business under the direct supervision of the Cabinet, which is the highest
institution of Government administration in Mongolia, and is regulated, principally, by the Law on Development Bank of
Mongolia. The Bank commenced its operations in May 2011.
The Government of Mongolia is the Banks sole shareholder. In May and December 2011, the Government contributed
MNT 16.7 billion and MNT 33.0 billion, respectively, in cash to the Banks capital. In 2012, the Government contributed
a further MNT 23.6 billion and as at 31 December 2012, the Banks share capital was MNT 73.3 billion. The Government
has contributed a further MNT 10.0 billion, MNT 5.0 billion and MNT 35.0 billion in July, August and September 2013,
respectively, to the Banks capital and as at 31 December 2013, the Banks share capital was MNT 123.3 billion.
In accordance with Article 21.1 of the Law on Development Bank of Mongolia, Parliament determines the source of equity
financing that the Government can provide to the Bank and determines the limits of loan guarantees to be provided
by the Government. The Bank is not subject to the rules and regulations issued by the Bank of Mongolia in relation to
commercial banks. The Banks policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market
confidence and to sustain future development of the business.
Until July 2013, the executive management of the Bank had been carried out by a joint team from the Bank and the
Korean Development Bank. In July 2013, the Management Agreement with the Korean Development Bank was changed
to the Advisory Agreement, and the Bank is managed solely by Mongolian nationals appointed by its Board of Directors.
The Bank had an average of 74 employees during the year ended 31 December 2013 (2012: 43). The Banks principal place
of business is: Max Tower Building 2-3rd floor, Juulchin Street 4/4 Ulaanbaatar 15170, Mongolia.
These financial statements are presented in Mongolian Tugriks (MNT), unless otherwise stated.
These financial statements were approved for issue by the Executive management of the Bank on 14 March 2014.
Operating Environment of the Bank
Mongolia displays many characteristics of an emerging market including relatively high inflation and interest rates. After
recording steady growth in 2010 and 2011, the Mongolian economy has shown signs of a slowdown in 2012 and 2013
due to declining global commodities prices, concerns over slowing growth in China and changes to the Mongolian
Foreign Investment Law in 2012 which have slowed inbound foreign investment into the country.
On 3 October 2013, the Mongolian parliament passed the Law on Investment and the Law on Implementation of the
Law on Investment (effective from 1 November 2013). Following the issuance of the new laws, the Law of Mongolia on
Foreign Investment and the Strategic Entities Foreign Investment Law (SEFIL) were cancelled. The purpose of the Law
on Investment is to protect the legitimate rights and interests of the investors in the territory of Mongolia, establish the
common legal guarantee for investment, support investment, stabilise tax environment, determine the powers of the
state organisations, and rights and obligations of the investor and regulate other relations concerning investments.
The tax and customs legislation in Mongolia is subject to varying interpretations and frequent changes (refer to Note 26).
The future economic performance of Mongolia is tied to the continuing demand from China and continuing high global
prices for commodities as well as dependent upon the effectiveness of economic, financial and monetary measures
undertaken by the Government together with tax, legal regulatory and political developments.
The international sovereign debt crisis, stock market volatility and other risks could have a negative effect on the
Mongolian financial and corporate sector. Management determined impairment provisions by considering the economic
situation and outlook at the end of the reporting period. Provisions for loans are determined using the incurred loss

model required by the applicable accounting standards. These standards require recognition of impairment losses for
receivables that arose from past events and prohibit recognition of impairment losses that could arise from future events,
no matter how likely those future events are.
Management is unable to predict all developments, which could have an impact on the Mongolian economy, and
consequently what effect, if any, they could have on the future financial position of the Bank. Management believes it is
taking all the necessary measures to support the sustainability and development of the Banks business.

2. FINANCIAL REPORTING FRAMEWORK AND BASIS


FOR PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION
Basis of Preparation and Presentation
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS),
under the historical cost convention, as modified by the initial recognition of financial instruments based on fair value.
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies
have been consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise stated.
Functional Currency
These financial statements are presented in Mongolian tugriks (MNT) the currency of the primary economic environment
in which the Bank operates and the Banks functional currency.
Amendments of the financial statements after issue
The Banks management has the power to amend the financial statements after issue.
Restatements
The following retrospective restatements have been made in these financial statements:
Accrued Interest Receivable and Accrued Interest Payable. Accrued Interest Receivable and Accrued Interest Payable
were previously reported as separate line items in the Statement of Financial Position for the year ended 31 December
2012, while they are integral to measurement of the related assets and liabilities at amortized cost according to the
Banks accounting policies. They have therefore been reclassified within Loans and advances, Bank Deposits, Cash and
cash equivalents and Bonds in these financial statements. Accrued Interest receivables on bank deposits of MNT 2,350
million as at 31 December 2012 has been restated to Bank Deposits in the amount of MNT 1,872 million and to Cash
and cash equivalents in the amount of MNT 478 million. Accrued Interest receivables on loans and advances of MNT

previously reported within Accounts and Other Liabilities and Non-interest income which represented loan origination

of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income, respectively, for the year ended 31 December 2012. They are
reported within Loans and advances and Interest Income in these financial statements. Other liabilities and Loans
and advances have been reduced by MNT 590 million. This restatements impact on the Statement of Profit or Loss and
Other Comprehensive Income and on the Statement of Financial Position as of 31 December 2012 is presented below
on pages 13-14.
Deposits from Borrowers. Management has reconsidered the accounting for Deposits from Borrowers previously
shown within Accounts and Other Liabilities. These amounts represented conditional loan commitments. This was
presented as a separate line in the Statement of Financial Position for the year ended 31 December 2012. Following the
reassessment of the nature of this deposit amounting to MNT 2,330 million, has now been presented off balance sheet
as undrawn commitments with the corresponding amount removed from Loans and Advances. This restatement has
no impact on the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income while its impact on the Statement of
Financial Position as of 31 December 2012 is presented below on pages 13-14.
Previously recorded Interest Income: In 2013, the management performed a detailed analysis of the nature of certain
transactions with the Government and their accounting treatment in accordance with IFRS. As a result of this analysis,
management concluded that cash contributions received from the Government in the amount of MNT 23,957 million
in 2012 represented Government support with regard to the guarantee issued by the Ministry of Finance and the
Banks repayment of notes issued under Euro Medium Term Notes Programme, and therefore meet the definition of
a government grant under IAS 20. As a result, the related amount is recognised as a reduction in the related Interest
Expense in these financial statements. Related amounts were recognised as interest income in IFRS financial statements
for the year ended 31 December 2012. This restatement has no impact on the Statement of Financial Position as of
31 December 2012, while its impact on the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income as of 31
December 2012 is presented below on pages 13-14.
Change in Deferred Tax Rate: In 2013, the management performed a detailed analysis of its deferred tax calculation
and its future tax rate. As a result of this analysis and on the basis of forecasts management concluded that the Bank
will incur tax at a rate of 25%. The Bank had previously used 10% to calculate deferred tax. The related deferred tax
asset and income tax expense for 2012 have been restated in these financial statements. Related amount of MNT 2,475
million was recognised in Deferred tax assets on the Statement of Financial Position as of 31 December 2012 and in
Income tax expense on the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income as of 31 December 2012.
This restatements impact on the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income and on the Statement
of Financial Position as of 31 December 2012 is presented below on pages 13-14.
Recognition of income tax charge: In 2013, the management performed a detailed analysis of its current income tax
return for 2012. As a result of this analysis management concluded that the Bank will incur a current tax charge of
MNT 3,314 million for the year ending 31 December 2012. This amount has been recognised within Current income
tax payable and Income tax expenses. This restatements impact on the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other
Comprehensive Income and on the Statement of Financial Position as of 31 December 2012 is presented below on
pages 13-14.
Bank Deposits. Management has reconsidered the presentation of Bank Deposits amounting to MNT 9,000 million as
at 1 January 2012 which represented cash. As a result of this analysis management concluded that this amount should
be restated to Cash and cash equivalents. This restatement has been reflected in the 1 January 2012 Statement of
Financial Position comparatives shown on page 3.
Reclassifications
Operating expenses. In 2013, the management performed a detailed analysis of its presentation of operating expenses.
As a result of this analysis management concluded that Operating Expenses should be split to show Foreign exchange
translation gains less losses and Gains less losses from trading in foreign currencies separately on the Statement of

Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. Of MNT 5,771 million reclassified from Operating Expenses MNT 5,767
million was reclassified to Foreign exchange translation gains less losses and MNT 4 million was reclassified to Gains
less losses from trading in foreign currencies. This reclassification has no impact on the Statement of Financial Position
as of 31 December 2012, while its impact on the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income as of 31
December 2012 is shown below on pages 13-14.
Other Assets and Foreign exchange translation gains less losses. In 2013, the management performed a detailed
analysis of nature of certain transactions with the Government and their accounting treatment in accordance with IFRS.
As a result of this analysis, management concluded that receivables due from the Ministry of Finance, presented within
Other Assets, in the amount of MNT 2,168 million meets the definition of a government grant under IAS 20. The grant
amount is recognised in the related expense to which the grant relates to namely the Foreign exchange translation
gains less losses in these financial statements. This was previously treated as an embedded derivative and recorded
within Operating Expenses in the 31 December 2012 financial statements. This reclassification has no impact on the
Statement of Financial Position as of 31 December 2012, and no impact on the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other
Comprehensive Income as of 31 December 2012.
Net investment in time deposits. In 2013, the management performed a detailed analysis of nature certain transactions
and their accounting presentation in accordance with IFRS. As a result of this analysis, management concluded that
Net investment in time deposits amounting to MNT 158,410 million and its related interest amounting to MNT 3,275
million, presented within the investing activities section of the Statement of Cash Flows should be presented within
the operating activities section of the Statement of Cash Flows. This reclassification has no impact on the Statement of
Financial Position as of 31 December 2012, and no impact on the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive
Income as of 31 December 2012.
The reclassifications have no impact on the Statement of Financial Position.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Financial instruments - key measurement terms. Depending on their classification financial instruments are carried at
fair value or amortised cost as described below.
Fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. The best evidence of fair value is price in an active market. An
active market is one in which transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to
provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Fair value of financial instruments traded in an active market is measured
as the product of the quoted price for the individual asset or liability and the quantity held by the entity. This is the case
even if a markets normal daily trading volume is not sufficient to absorb the quantity held and placing orders to sell the
position in a single transaction might affect the quoted price.
Valuation techniques such as discounted cash flow models or models based on recent arms length transactions or
consideration of financial data of the investees are used to measure fair value of certain financial instruments for which
external market pricing information is not available. Fair value measurements are analysed by level in the fair value
hierarchy as follows: (i) level one are measurements at quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities, (ii) level two measurements are valuations techniques with all material inputs observable for the asset or liability,
either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices), and (iii) level three measurements are valuations
not based on solely observable market data (that is, the measurement requires significant unobservable inputs). Transfers
between levels of the fair value hierarchy are deemed to have occurred at the end of the reporting period.
Transaction costs. Transaction costs are incremental costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, issue or disposal
of a financial instrument. An incremental cost is one that would not have been incurred if the transaction had not taken
place. Transaction costs include fees and commissions paid to agents (including employees acting as selling agents),
advisors, brokers and dealers, levies by regulatory agencies and securities exchanges, and transfer taxes and duties.
Transaction costs do not include debt premiums or discounts, financing costs or internal administrative or holding costs.
Amortised cost. Amortised cost is the amount at which the financial instrument was recognised at initial recognition
less any principal repayments, plus accrued interest, and for financial assets less any write-down for incurred impairment
losses. Accrued interest includes amortisation of transaction costs deferred at initial recognition and of any premium or
discount to maturity amount using the effective interest method. Accrued interest income and accrued interest expense,
including both accrued coupon and amortised discount or premium (including fees deferred at origination, if any), are
not presented separately and are included in the carrying values of related items in the statement of financial position.
The effective interest method. The effective interest method is a method of allocating interest income or interest expense
over the relevant period, so as to achieve a constant periodic rate of interest (effective interest rate) on the carrying
amount. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts (excluding
future credit losses) through the expected life of the financial instrument or a shorter period, if appropriate, to the net
carrying amount of the financial instrument.
The effective interest rate discounts cash flows of variable interest instruments to the next interest reprising date, except
for the premium or discount which reflects the credit spread over the floating rate specified in the instrument, or other
variables that are not reset to market rates. Such premiums or discounts are amortised over the whole expected life of the
instrument. The present value calculation includes all fees paid or received between parties to the contract that are an
integral part of the effective interest rate.
Initial recognition of financial instruments. Trading securities, derivatives and other financial instruments at fair value
through profit or loss are initially recorded at fair value. All other financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value
plus transaction costs. Fair value at initial recognition is best evidenced by the transaction price. A gain or loss on initial
recognition is only recorded if there is a difference between fair value and transaction price which can be evidenced by
other observable current market transactions in the same instrument or by a valuation technique whose inputs include
only data from observable markets.

Notes to the Financial Statements 31 December 2013
(Expressed in thousands of Mongolian tugriks unless otherwise stated)

All purchases and sales of financial assets that require delivery within the time frame established by regulation or market convention
(regular way purchases and sales) are recorded at trade date, which is the date on which the Bank commits to deliver a financial
asset. All other purchases are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Derecognition of financial assets. The Bank derecognises financial assets when (a) the assets are redeemed or the rights
to cash flows from the assets otherwise expired or (b) the Bank has transferred the rights to the cash flows from the
financial assets or entered into a qualifying pass-through arrangement while (i) also transferring substantially all risks and
rewards of ownership of the assets or (ii) neither transferring nor retaining substantially all risks and rewards of ownership,
but not retaining control. Control is retained if the counterparty does not have the practical ability to sell the asset in its
entirety to an unrelated third party without needing to impose restrictions on the sale.
Cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are items which are readily convertible to known amounts of
cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Cash and cash equivalents include all interbank
placements with original maturities of less than 90 days. Funds restricted for a period of more than 90 days on origination
are excluded from cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at amortised cost.
Bank Deposits. Bank deposit are recorded when the Bank advances money to counterparty banks with no intention of
trading the resulting unquoted non-derivative receivable due on fixed or determinable dates. Amounts due from other
banks are carried at amortised cost.
Loans and advances to customers. Loans and advances to customers are recorded when the Bank advances money to
purchase or originate an unquoted non-derivative receivable from a customer due on fixed or determinable dates, and
has no intention of trading the receivable. Loans and advances to customers are carried at amortised cost.
Impairment of financial assets carried at amortised cost. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss for the year
when incurred as a result of one or more events (loss events) that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial
asset and which have an impact on the amount or timing of the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group
of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.
The following other principal criteria are also used to determine whether there is objective evidence that an impairment
loss has occurred:
any instalment is overdue and the late payment cannot be attributed to a delay caused by the settlement systems;
the borrower experiences a significant financial difficulty as evidenced by the borrowers financial information that the
Bank obtains;
the borrower considers bankruptcy or a financial reorganisation;
there is an adverse change in the payment status of the borrower as a result of changes in the national or local
economic conditions that impact the borrower; or
the value of collateral significantly decreases as a result of deteriorating market conditions.
Future cash flows in a group of financial assets that are collectively evaluated for impairment, are estimated on the basis
of the contractual cash flows of the assets and the experience of management in respect of the extent to which amounts
will become overdue as a result of past loss events and the success of recovery of overdue amounts. Past experience
is adjusted on the basis of current observable data to reflect the effects of current conditions that did not affect past
periods, and to remove the effects of past conditions that do not exist currently.
If the terms of an impaired financial asset held at amortised cost are renegotiated or otherwise modified because of
financial difficulties of the borrower or issuer, impairment is measured using the original effective interest rate before the
modification of terms. The renegotiated asset is then derecognized and a new asset is recognized at its fair value only if
the risks and rewards of the asset substantially changed. This is normally evidenced by a substantial difference between
the present values of the original cash flows and the new expected cash flows.
Impairment losses are always recognised through an allowance account to write down the assets carrying amount to
the present value of expected cash flows (which exclude future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at
the original effective interest rate of the asset. The calculation of the present value of the estimated future cash flows of

Notes to the Financial Statements 31 December 2013
(Expressed in thousands of Mongolian tugriks unless otherwise stated)

a collateralised financial asset reflects the cash flows that may result from foreclosure less costs for obtaining and selling
the collateral, whether or not foreclosure is probable. Allowances are made against the carrying amount of loans and
advances that are identified as being impaired, based on regular reviews of outstanding balances, in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards and provisioning approved by the Chief executive director of the Bank.
If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively
to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised (such as an improvement in the debtors credit rating), the
previously recognised impairment loss is reversed by adjusting the allowance account through profit or loss for the year.
Uncollectible assets are written off against the related impairment loss provision after all the necessary procedures to
recover the asset have been completed and the amount of the loss has been determined. Subsequent recoveries of
amounts previously written off are credited to impairment loss account in profit or loss for the year.
Prepayments. Prepayments represent expenses not yet incurred but already paid in cash. Prepayments are initially
recorded as assets and measured at the amount of cash paid. Subsequently, these are charged to profit or loss as they are
consumed in operations or expire with the passage of time.
Property and Equipment. Property and equipment are initially measured at cost. At the end of each reporting period,
property and equipment are measured at cost less any subsequent accumulated depreciation, amortization and
impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset.
Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalized as part of that equipment.
Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method, based on the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
IT Equipment - 3 years
Furniture and fixture - 10 years
Vehicles - 10 years
Derecognition of property and equipment. An item of property and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when
no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Gain or loss arising on the disposal
or retirement of an asset is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset
and is recognized in profit or loss.
Intangible Assets. Intangible assets that are acquired by the Bank with finite useful lives are initially measured at cost. At
the end of each reporting period items of intangible assets acquired are measured at cost less accumulated amortization
and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable purchase
taxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebates and any directly attributable cost of preparing the intangible asset for
its intended use.
Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset
to which it relates. All other expenditure is recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
Amortization for intangible asset with finite useful life is calculated over the cost of the asset, or other amount substituted
for cost, less its residual value.
Amortization is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets from
the date that they are available for use, since this most closely reflects the expected pattern of consumption of the future
economic benefits embodied in the asset. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Software - 10 years
Licence - 1 years
Derecognition of intangible assets. An intangible asset is derecognized on disposal, or when no future economic
benefits are expected from use or disposal. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured
as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in profit or
loss when the asset is derecognized.

Development Bank of Mongolia


Notes to the Financial Statements 31 December 2013
(Expressed in thousands of Mongolian tugriks unless otherwise stated)

Impairment of Tangible and Intangible Assets. At the end of each reporting period management assesses whether there
is any indication of impairment of premises and equipment or intangible assets. If any such indication exists, management
estimates the recoverable amount, which is determined as the higher of an assets fair value less costs to sell and its value
in use. The carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable amount and the impairment loss is recognised in profit or
loss for the year. An impairment loss recognised for an asset in prior years is reversed if there has been a change in the
estimates used to determine the assets value in use or fair value less costs to sell.
Customer accounts. Customer accounts are non-derivative liabilities to individuals, state or corporate customers and are
carried at amortised cost.
Bonds and Borrowings. Debt securities representing bonds issued and borrowings are stated at amortised cost. If the Bank
purchases its own debt securities in issue, they are removed from the statement of financial position and the difference
between the carrying amount of the liability and the consideration paid is included in gains arising from retirement of debt.
Ordinary shares. As at 31 December 2013, the Government of Mongolia had paid in capital contributions to the Bank, but
no share certificates had been issued.
Income tax. Income tax has been provided for in the financial statements in accordance with legislation enacted or
substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The income tax charge comprises current tax and deferred
tax and is recognised in profit or loss for the year, except if it is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in
equity because it relates to transactions that are also recognised, in the same or a different period, in other comprehensive
income or directly in equity. Current tax is the amount expected to be paid to, or recovered from, the taxation authorities
in respect of taxable profits or losses for the current and prior periods. Taxable profits or losses are based on estimates if
the financial statements are authorised prior to filing relevant tax returns. Taxes other than on income are recorded within
administrative and other operating expenses.
Deferred income tax. Deferred income tax is provided using the balance sheet liability method for tax loss carry forwards
and temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial
reporting purposes. In accordance with the initial recognition exemption, deferred taxes are not recorded for temporary
differences on initial recognition of an asset or a liability in a transaction other than a business combination if the
transaction, when initially recorded, affects neither accounting nor taxable profit. Deferred tax balances are measured at
tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period, which are expected to apply to the period
when the temporary differences will reverse or the tax loss carry forwards will be utilised.
Deferred tax assets for deductible temporary differences and tax loss carry forwards are recorded only to the extent that it
is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductions can be utilised.
Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
Provisions. Provisions are recognized when the Bank has a present obligation, either legal or constructive, as a result
of a past event, it is probable that the Bank will be required to settle the obligation through an outflow of resources
embodying economic benefits, and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably.
The amount of the provision recognized is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation
at the end of each reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. A provision
is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation; its carrying amount is the present value of
those cash flows.
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party,
the receivable is recognized as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the
receivable can be measured reliably.
Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.
If it is no longer probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, the provision is
reversed.

(Expressed in thousands of Mongolian tugriks unless otherwise stated)

Contingent Liabilities and Assets. Contingent liabilities and assets are not recognized because their existence will be
confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the
control of the entity.
Contingent liabilities are disclosed, unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is
remote.
Contingent assets are disclosed only an inflow of economic benefits is probable.
Credit related commitments. From time to time, the Bank enters into credit related commitments, including letters of
credit and financial guarantees. Financial guarantees represent irrevocable assurances to make payments in the event that
a customer cannot meet its obligations to third parties and carry the same credit risk as loans.
Financial guarantees and commitments to provide a loan are initially recognized at their fair value, which is normally
evidenced by the amount of fees received. This amount is amortized on a straight line basis over the life of the commitment,
except for commitments to originate loans if it is probable that the Bank will enter into a specific lending arrangement
and does not expect to sell the resulting loan shortly after origination; such loan commitment fees are deferred and
included in the carrying value of the loan on initial recognition. At the end of each reporting period, the commitments
are measured at the higher of (i) the remaining unamortized balance of the amount at initial recognition and (ii) the best
estimate of expenditure required to settle the commitment at the end of each reporting period. In cases where the fees
are charged periodically in respect of an outstanding commitment, they are recognized as revenue on a time proportion
basis over the respective commitment period.
Employee Benefits
Short-term benefits. The Bank recognizes a liability net of amounts already paid and an expense for services rendered by
employees during the reporting period. A liability is also recognized for the amount expected to be paid under short-term
cash bonus or profit sharing plans if the Bank has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result
of past service provided by the employee, and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service
is provided.
Long-term benefits. The Bank has provided funding to 3rd party banks in order for them to provide its Employees with
cheaper mortgage and salary loans. The cost of this scheme has been booked as a prepayment and will be expensed
through the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income over the life-time of the loan scheme.
Post-employment benefits. The Bank does not have any pension arrangements separate from the defined contributions
state pension system of Mongolia, which requires current contributions by the employer calculated as a percentage of
current gross salary payments; such expense is charged to the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive
Incomes in the period the related salaries and wages are payable.
Offsetting. Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statement of financial position
only when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts, and there is an intention to either settle
on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Income and expense recognition. Interest income and expense are recorded for all debt instruments on an accrual basis
using the effective interest method. This method defers, as part of interest income or expense, all fees paid or received
between the parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and all other
premiums or discounts.
Fees integral to the effective interest rate include origination fees received or paid by the entity relating to the creation
or acquisition of a financial asset or issuance of a financial liability, for example fees for evaluating creditworthiness,
evaluating and recording guarantees or collateral, negotiating the terms of the instrument and for processing transaction
documents. Commitment fees received by the Bank to originate loans at market interest rates are integral to the effective
interest rate if it is probable that the Bank will enter into a specific lending arrangement and does not expect to sell the

Development Bank of Mongolia

(Expressed in thousands of Mongolian tugriks unless otherwise stated)

resulting loan shortly after origination. The Bank does not designate loan commitments as financial liabilities at fair value
through profit or loss.
When loans and other debt instruments become doubtful of collection, they are written down to the present value of
expected cash inflows and interest income is thereafter recorded for the unwinding of the present value discount based
on the assets effective interest rate which was used to measure the impairment loss. All other fees, commissions and
other income and expense items are generally recorded on an accrual basis by reference to completion of the specific
transaction assessed on the basis of the actual service provided as a proportion of the total services to be provided.
Commissions and fees arising from negotiating, or participating in the negotiation of a transaction for a third party, such
as the acquisition of loans, shares or other securities or the purchase or sale of businesses, and which are earned on
execution of the underlying transaction, are recorded on its completion.
Government grants. Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value, where there is reasonable assurance
that the grant will be received, and that the Bank will comply with all attached conditions. Government grants are
deferred, and recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income over the period necessary
to match them with the costs they are intended to compensate. The Bank has opted to recognise its government grants
as a reduction of the related expense. If part, or all, of a grant becomes repayable to the government, the repayment is
first matched against any remaining deferred income set up for that grant. If this is insufficient, the remainder is expensed
immediately.
Foreign Currency
Foreign currency transactions. Transactions in currencies other than the MNT are recorded at the foreign exchange rates
prevailing on the date of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities that are
denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting
period. Non-monetary assets and liabilities carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at
the foreign exchange rates prevailing at the date the fair value was determined. Gains and losses arising on retranslation
are included in profit or loss for the year. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at historical cost in a
foreign currency are not retranslated.
Related Party Transactions
A related party transaction is a transfer of resources, services or obligations between the Bank and a related party,
regardless of whether a price is charged.
A person or a close member of that persons family is related to the Bank if that person:
has control or joint control over the Bank or
has significant influence over the Bank or
is a member of the key management personnel of the Bank or of a parent of the Bank
An entity is related to the Bank if any of the following conditions apply:
the entity and the Bank are members of the same group which means that each parent, subsidiary and fellow subsidiary
is related to the others;
one entity is an associate or joint venture of the other entity or an associate or joint venture of a member of a group of
which the other entity is a member;
both entities are joint ventures of the same third party;
one entity is a joint venture of a third entity and the other entity is an associate of the third entity;
the entity is a post-employment benefit plan for the benefit of employees of either the Bank or an entity related to the Bank;

74

the entity is controlled or jointly controlled by a person who is a related party as identified above; and
A person that has control or joint control over the reporting entity has significant influence over the entity or is a
member of the key management personnel of the entity or of a parent of the entity.
Due to the nature of the Bank and its role as a policy bank almost all loans and transactions are with related parties. The
Bank applies the exemption from the disclosure of individually insignificant transactions with government related parties
as allowed under IAS 24, paragraph 25.

4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY


SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
In the application of the Banks accounting policies, management is required to make judgments, estimates and
assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The
estimates and associated assumptions are based on the historical experience and other factors that are considered to
be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on
an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the
revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and
future periods.
Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty. The following are the key assumptions concerning the future and other key
sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of each reporting period that have a significant risk of causing a material
adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
Determining the carrying value of employee prepayments. Management has concluded that the interest rate for the
deposit to State bank of MNT 850 million and to Golomt bank of MNT 150 million is at below market interest rates. Based
on available information on comparable transactions, management made judgement that the policy rate of the Bank of
Mongolia of 10.5% p.a. represents reasonable approximation of market interest rate on MNT funding. As a result, related
prepayment was recognized at its fair value at initial recognition of MNT 776,352 thousand. The loss on initial recognition
(i.e. the difference between nominal value of this deposit and its fair value) represents salary prepayments in accordance
with IFRS requirements. Management has concluded that it is appropriate to recognize the cost of the scheme over the
lifetime of the deposit. Refer to Note 9 for further details.
Determining the level of loan loss provisioning. The purpose of the Bank is to provide financing to development projects
in the Mongolia. As a result, the projects are often of a social infrastructure nature and may not have a clearly defined standalone profit-oriented cash flow sufficient to demonstrate a long-term ability to repay the development loan. However, for
substantially all loans a guarantee is provided by the Government, and this is considered when assessing whether there is a
risk of loss on any particular loan. Management does not believe any loan impairment assessment is required on loans where
guarantees have been received from the Government. No collective loan loss provision calculation is performed by the Bank
as management assess that given the structure of the loan portfolio and the guarantees received from Government any loss
given default LGD on the guaranteed loans would be zero. Given the close involvement of the Government, the Bank and
the underlying projects the Bank finances, management assess that there are no losses incurred but not reported in respect
of the guaranteed loans affecting the Bank. The level of Government guarantees and other collateral is disclosed in Note 8.
Any changes in the assessment of recoverability of guarantees would impact the profit or loss of the Bank.
The Bank regularly reviews its loan portfolios to assess impairment. In determining whether an impairment loss should be
recorded in profit or loss for the year, the Bank makes judgements as to whether there is any observable data indicating

75

Development Bank of Mongolia


Notes to the Financial Statements 31 December 2013
(Expressed in thousands of Mongolian tugriks unless otherwise stated)

that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a portfolio of loans before the decrease can
be identified with an individual loan in that portfolio. This evidence may include observable data indicating that there
has been an adverse change in the payment status of borrowers in the Bank, or national or local economic conditions
that correlate with defaults on assets of the Bank. Management uses estimates based on credit risk characteristics and
objective evidence of impairment similar to those in the portfolio when scheduling its future cash flows. The methodology
and assumptions used for estimating both the amount and timing of future cash flows are reviewed regularly to reduce
any differences between loss estimates and actual loss experience.
A 10% increase or decrease in actual loss experience compared to the loss estimates used would result in an increase
or decrease in loan impairment losses of MNT 663 million (2012: MNT 0 million), respectively. Impairment losses for
individually significant loans are based on estimates of discounted future cash flows of the individual loans, taking into
account repayments and realisation of any assets held as collateral against the loans.
Determining the treatment of Government Grant Schemes. Management has concluded that it is a recipient of two grant
schemes described in Note 18, Note 19 and Note 20 in the year ended 31 December 2012 and year ended 31 December
2013 amounting to MNT 24 billion and MNT 4 billion respectively. Determining whether the transaction falls within the
scope of IAS 20 requires judgement. The definition of government grants includes transfers to an entity, subject to certain
conditions placed on the operating activities of the entity. However, it excludes government assistance which cannot be
distinguished from normal trading transactions of the entity and transactions which constitute government participation in
the ownership of the entity. Management has concluded that the two schemes fall within the scope of IAS 20. Management
has also concluded that the receivable due from Government at each reporting date was reasonably assured to be received.
Determining the treatment of Ministry MNT to USD loan conversion. On the 27 December 2013 the bank signed an
amendment to its loan agreements with different Ministries and the Ministry of Finance to convert its MNT loans to the
Ministries into USD loans on the 30 December 2013. Previously these loans were denominated in Mongolian tugriks and
as part of the original agreement the Ministry of Finance agreed to cover any movement in the MNT loans compared
to a theoretical USD loan as described in Note 20. A total of MNT 356 billion was converted into USD 252 million using
the original FX rates at origination date of each loan. The conversion has no impact on retained earnings and results
in a decrease in the receivable from the Ministry of Finance of MNT 61 billion and corresponding increase in Loans
and receivables. Determining whether the transaction meets the de-recognition criteria in IAS 39 requires judgement.
Management has concluded that the conversion of its MNT loans and corresponding receivable from the Ministry of
Finance does not represent substantial modification in terms but a clarification of the original intention of the loan
contract and hence the derecognition criteria under IAS 39 are not met.
Initial recognition of borrowings and loans at below market rates. During 2013, the Bank has obtained financing directly
from the Government of Mongolia. These funds are denominated in MNT and obtained at an interest rate of 4.7917%,
which is lower than rates at which the Bank could source the funds from other lenders at Mongolian market. Based on
available information on comparable transactions, management made judgment that the policy rate of the Bank of
Mongolia represents the best approximation of market interest rate on MNT funding for banks (10.5%). As a result of such
financing, the Bank is able to advance funds to target customers as determined by the Government, at advantageous rates
of approximately 8% p.a. The Bank has little or no discretionary rights in determining interest rates on issued loans should
it continue to wish receiving cheap financing from the Government. Management has considered whether gains or losses
should arise on initial recognition of such instruments. Managements judgement is that these funds and the related
lending are at market rates and no initial recognition gains or losses should arise. In making this judgement management
considers that these instruments are a separate market segment (i.e. the Bank operates in a separate principal market) and
that they fall in level 2 of the fair value measurement hierarchy.
Deferred income tax asset recognition. The recognised deferred tax asset represents income taxes recoverable through
future deductions from taxable profits, and is recorded in the statement of financial position. Deferred income tax assets
are recorded to the extent that realisation of the related tax benefit is probable. The future taxable profits and the amount
of tax benefits that are probable in the future are based on a medium term business plan prepared by management and
extrapolated results thereafter. The business plan is based on management expectations that are believed to be reasonable
under the circumstances taking into account the Banks actual profitability during 2013. Management has concluded that it
will be able to recover its deferred tax asset including tax losses and is likely to incur tax at the rate of 25%.

5. APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL


FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS
The following new standards and interpretations became effective for the Bank from 1 January 2013:
IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements (issued in May 2011 and effective for annual periods beginning on or
after 1 January 2013) replaces all of the guidance on control and consolidation in IAS 27 Consolidated and separate
financial statements and SIC-12 Consolidation - special purpose entities. IFRS 10 changes the definition of control so
that the same criteria are applied to all entities to determine control. This definition is supported by extensive application
guidance. The Standard did not have any material impact on the Banks financial statements.
IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements (issued in May 2011 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January
2013) replaces IAS 31 Interests in Joint Ventures and SIC-13 Jointly Controlled EntitiesNon-Monetary Contributions by
Ventures. Changes in the definitions have reduced the number of types of joint arrangements to two: joint operations and
joint ventures. The existing policy choice of proportionate consolidation for jointly controlled entities has been eliminated.
Equity accounting is mandatory for participants in joint ventures. The Standard did not have any material impact on the
Banks financial statements.
IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities (issued in May 2011 and effective for annual periods beginning
on or after 1 January 2013) applies to entities that have an interest in a subsidiary, a joint arrangement, an associate
or an unconsolidated structured entity. It replaces the disclosure requirements previously found in IAS 28 Investments
in associates. IFRS 12 requires entities to disclose information that helps financial statement readers to evaluate the
nature, risks and financial effects associated with the entitys interests in subsidiaries, associates, joint arrangements and
unconsolidated structured entities. To meet these objectives, the new standard requires disclosures in a number of areas,
including significant judgments and assumptions made in determining whether an entity controls, jointly controls, or
significantly influences its interests in other entities, extended disclosures on share of non-controlling interests in group
activities and cash flows, summarized financial information of subsidiaries with material non-controlling interests, and
detailed disclosures of interests in unconsolidated structured entities. The Standard did not have any material impact on
the Banks financial statements.
IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement (issued in May 2011 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January
2013) improved consistency and reduced complexity by providing a revised definition of fair value, and a single source of
fair value measurement and disclosure requirements for use across IFRSs The Standard did not have any material impact
on the Banks financial statements, except for additional disclosures.
IAS 27 Separate Financial Statements (revised in May 2011 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after
1 January 2013) was changed and its objective is now to prescribe the accounting and disclosure requirements for
investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates when an entity prepares separate financial statements. The
guidance on control and consolidated financial statements was replaced by IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Standard did not have any material impact on the Banks financial statements.
IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (revised in May 2011 and effective for annual periods beginning
on or after 1 January 2013). The amendment of IAS 28 resulted from the Boards project on joint ventures. When
discussing that project, the Board decided to incorporate the accounting for joint ventures using the equity method
into IAS 28 because this method is applicable to both joint ventures and associates. With this exception, other guidance
remained unchanged. The Standard did not have any material impact on the Banks financial statements.
Amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements (issued in June 2011, effective for annual periods
beginning on or after 1 July 2013) changed the disclosure of items presented in other comprehensive income. The
amendments require entities to separate items presented in other comprehensive income into two groups, based on
whether or not they may be reclassified to profit or loss in the future.
The suggested title used by IAS 1 has changed to statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. The
amended standard but did not have any impact on the financial statements.

77

Development Bank of Mongolia


Notes to the Financial Statements 31 December 2013
(Expressed in thousands of Mongolian tugriks unless otherwise stated)

Amended IAS 19 Employee Benefits (issued in June 2011, effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013)
makes significant changes to the recognition and measurement of defined benefit pension expense and termination
benefits, and to the disclosures for all employee benefits. The standard requires recognition of all changes in the net
defined benefit liability (asset) when they occur, as follows: (i) service cost and net interest in profit or loss; and (ii)
remeasurements in other comprehensive income. The Standard did not have any material impact on the Banks financial
statements.
Disclosures - Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Amendments to IFRS 7 (issued in December
2011 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013). The amendment requires disclosures
that enable users of an entitys financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements,
including rights of set-off. The Standard did not have any material impact on the Banks financial statements.
Improvements to International Financial Reporting Standards (issued in May 2012 and effective for annual periods
beginning 1 January 2013). The improvements consist of changes to five standards. IFRS 1 was amended to (i) clarify
that an entity that resumes preparing its IFRS financial statements may either repeatedly apply IFRS 1 or apply all IFRSs
retrospectively as if it had never stopped applying them, and (ii) to add an exemption from applying IAS 23 Borrowing
costs, retrospectively by first-time adopters. IAS 1 was amended to clarify that explanatory notes are not required to
support the third balance sheet presented at the beginning of the preceding period when it is provided because it was
materially impacted by a retrospective restatement, changes in accounting policies or reclassifications for presentation
purposes, while explanatory notes will be required when an entity voluntarily decides to provide additional comparative
statements. IAS 16 was amended to clarify that servicing equipment that is used for more than one period is classified
as property, plant and equipment rather than inventory. IAS 32 was amended to clarify that certain tax consequences of
distributions to owners should be accounted for in the income statement as was always required by IAS 12. IAS 34 was
amended to bring its requirements in line with IFRS 8. IAS 34 now requires disclosure of a measure of total assets and
liabilities for an operating segment only if such information is regularly provided to chief operating decision maker and
there has been a material change in those measures since the last annual financial statements. The Standard did not have
any material impact on the Banks financial statements.
Transition Guidance Amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12 (issued in June 2012 and effective for annual
periods beginning 1 January 2013). The amendments clarify the transition guidance in IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial
Statements. Entities adopting IFRS 10 should assess control at the first day of the annual period in which IFRS 10 is adopted,
and if the consolidation conclusion under IFRS 10 differs from IAS 27 and SIC 12, the immediately preceding comparative
period (that is, year 2012) is restated, unless impracticable. The amendments also provide additional transition relief in
IFRS 10, IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements and IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, by limiting the requirement
to provide adjusted comparative information only for the immediately preceding comparative period. Further, the
amendments remove the requirement to present comparative information for disclosures related to unconsolidated
structured entities for periods before IFRS 12 is first applied. The Standard did not have any material impact on the Banks
financial statements.
Other revised standards and interpretations: IFRIC 20 Stripping Costs in the Production Phase of a Surface Mine,
considers when and how to account for the benefits arising from the stripping activity in mining industry. The
interpretation did not have an impact on the Banks financial statements. Amendments to IFRS 1 First-time adoption
of International Financial Reporting Standards - Government Loans, which were issued in March 2012 and are effective
for annual periods beginning 1January 2013, give first-time adopters of IFRSs relief from full retrospective application of
accounting requirements for loans from government at below market rates. The amendment is not relevant to the Bank.
New Accounting Pronouncements
Certain new standards and interpretations have been issued that are mandatory for the annual periods beginning on or
after 1January 2014 or later, and which the Bank has not early adopted.
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement. Key features of the standard issued in November 2009
and amended in October 2010, December 2011 and November 2013 are:

78

Development Bank of Mongolia


Notes to the Financial Statements 31 December 2013
(Expressed in thousands of Mongolian tugriks unless otherwise stated)

Financial assets are required to be classified into two measurement categories: those to be measured subsequently at
fair value, and those to be measured subsequently at amortised cost. The decision is to be made at initial recognition.
The classification depends on the entitys business model for managing its financial instruments and the contractual
cash flow characteristics of the instrument.
An instrument is subsequently measured at amortised cost only if it is a debt instrument and both (i) the objective
of the entitys business model is to hold the asset to collect the contractual cash flows, and (ii) the assets contractual
cash flows represent payments of principal and interest only (that is, it has only basic loan features). All other debt
instruments are to be measured at fair value through profit or loss.
All equity instruments are to be measured subsequently at fair value. Equity instruments that are held for trading will
be measured at fair value through profit or loss. For all other equity investments, an irrevocable election can be made
at initial recognition, to recognise unrealised and realised fair value gains and losses through other comprehensive
income rather than profit or loss. There is to be no recycling of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss. This election
may be made on an instrument-by-instrument basis. Dividends are to be presented in profit or loss, as long as they
represent a return on investment.
Most of the requirements in IAS 39 for classification and measurement of financial liabilities were carried forward
unchanged to IFRS 9. The key change is that an entity will be required to present the effects of changes in own credit
risk of financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss in other comprehensive income.
Hedge accounting requirements were amended to align accounting more closely with risk management. The standard
provides entities with an accounting policy choice between applying the hedge accounting requirements of IFRS 9
and continuing to apply IAS 39 to all hedges because the standard currently does not address accounting for macro
hedging.
The amendments made to IFRS 9 in November 2013 removed its mandatory effective date, thus making application of the
standard voluntary. The Bank does not intend to adopt the existing version of IFRS 9.
Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Amendments to IAS 32 (issued in December 2011 and effective
for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014). The amendment added application guidance to IAS 32 to
address inconsistencies identified in applying some of the offsetting criteria. This includes clarifying the meaning of
currently has a legally enforceable right of set-off and that some gross settlement systems may be considered equivalent
to net settlement. The Bank is considering the implications of the standard, the impact on the Bank and the timing of its
adoption by the Bank.
Amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 27 - Investment entities (issued on 31 October 2012 and effective for
annual periods beginning 1 January 2014). The amendment introduced a definition of an investment entity as an
entity that (i) obtains funds from investors for the purpose of providing them with investment management services, (ii)
commits to its investors that its business purpose is to invest funds solely for capital appreciation or investment income
and (iii) measures and evaluates its investments on a fair value basis. An investment entity will be required to account for
its subsidiaries at fair value through profit or loss, and to consolidate only those subsidiaries that provide services that are
related to the entitys investment activities.
IFRS 12 was amended to introduce new disclosures, including any significant judgements made in determining whether
an entity is an investment entity and information about financial or other support to an unconsolidated subsidiary,
whether intended or already provided to the subsidiary. The Bank does not expect the amendment to have any impact on
its financial statements.
IFRIC 21 Levies (issued on 20 May 2013 and effective for annual periods beginning 1 January 2014). The
interpretation clarifies the accounting for an obligation to pay a levy that is not income tax. The obligating event that
gives rise to a liability is the event identified by the legislation that triggers the obligation to pay the levy. The fact that
an entity is economically compelled to continue operating in a future period, or prepares its financial statements under
the going concern assumption, does not create an obligation. The same recognition principles apply in annual financial
statements. The application of the interpretation to liabilities arising from emissions trading schemes is optional. The Bank
does not expect the amendment to have any impact on its financial statements.

Development Bank of Mongolia


Notes to the Financial Statements 31 December 2013
(Expressed in thousands of Mongolian tugriks unless otherwise stated)

Amendments to IAS 36 Recoverable amount disclosures for non-financial assets (issued in May 2013 and effective
for annual periods beginning 1 January 2014; earlier application is permitted if IFRS 13 is applied for the same
accounting and comparative period). The amendments remove the requirement to disclose the recoverable amount
when a CGU contains goodwill or indefinite lived intangible assets but there has been no impairment. The Bank is currently
assessing the impact of the amendments on the disclosures in its financial statements.
Amendments to IAS 39 Novation of Derivatives and Continuation of Hedge Accounting issued in June 2013 and
effective for annual periods beginning 1 January 2014). The amendments will allow hedge accounting to continue in
a situation where a derivative, which has been designated as a hedging instrument, is novated (i.e parties have agreed
to replace their original counterparty with a new one) to effect clearing with a central counterparty as a result of laws or
regulation, if specific conditions are met. The Bank does not expect the amendment to have any impact on its financial
statements.
Amendments to IAS 19 Defined benefit plans: Employee contributions (issued in November 2013 and effective
for annual periods beginning 1 July 2014). The amendment allows entities to recognise employee contributions as a
reduction in the service cost in the period in which the related employee service is rendered, instead of attributing the
contributions to the periods of service, if the amount of the employee contributions is independent of the number of
years of service. The amendment is not expected to have any material impact on the Banks financial statements.
Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2012 (issued in December 2013 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after
1 July 2014, unless otherwise stated below). The improvements consist of changes to seven standards.
IFRS 2 was amended to clarify the definition of a vesting condition and to define separately performance condition and
service condition; The amendment is effective for share-based payment transactions for which the grant date is on or
after 1 July 2014.
IFRS 3 was amended to clarify that (1) an obligation to pay contingent consideration which meets the definition of a
financial instrument is classified as a financial liability or as equity, on the basis of the definitions in IAS 32, and (2) all nonequity contingent consideration, both financial and non-financial, is measured at fair value at each reporting date, with
changes in fair value recognised in profit and loss. Amendments to IFRS 3 are effective for business combinations where
the acquisition date is on or after 1 July 2014.
IFRS 8 was amended to require (1) disclosure of the judgements made by management in aggregating operating
segments, including a description of the segments which have been aggregated and the economic indicators which
have been assessed in determining that the aggregated segments share similar economic characteristics, and (2) a
reconciliation of segment assets to the entitys assets when segment assets are reported.
The basis for conclusions on IFRS 13 was amended to clarify that deletion of certain paragraphs in IAS 39 upon publishing
of IFRS 13 was not made with an intention to remove the ability to measure short-term receivables and payables at invoice
amount where the impact of discounting is immaterial.
IAS 16 and IAS 38 were amended to clarify how the gross carrying amount and the accumulated depreciation are treated
where an entity uses the revaluation model.
IAS 24 was amended to include, as a related party, an entity that provides key management personnel services to the
reporting entity or to the parent of the reporting entity (the management entity), and to require to disclose the amounts
charged to the reporting entity by the management entity for services provided.
The Bank is currently assessing the impact of the amendments on its financial statements.
Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2013 (issued in December 2013 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after
1 July 2014). The improvements consist of changes to four standards.
The basis for conclusions on IFRS 1 is amended to clarify that, where a new version of a standard is not yet mandatory but
is available for early adoption; a first-time adopter can use either the old or the new version, provided the same standard
is applied in all periods presented.
IFRS 3 was amended to clarify that it does not apply to the accounting for the formation of any joint arrangement under

80

Development Bank of Mongolia


Notes to the Financial Statements 31 December 2013
(Expressed in thousands of Mongolian tugriks unless otherwise stated)

IFRS 11. The amendment also clarifies that the scope exemption only applies in the financial statements of the joint
arrangement itself.
The amendment of IFRS 13 clarifies that the portfolio exception in IFRS 13, which allows an entity to measure the fair value
of a group of financial assets and financial liabilities on a net basis, applies to all contracts (including contracts to buy or
sell non-financial items) that are within the scope of IAS 39 or IFRS 9.
IAS 40 was amended to clarify that IAS 40 and IFRS 3 are not mutually exclusive. The guidance in IAS 40 assists preparers to
distinguish between investment property and owner-occupied property. Preparers also need to refer to the guidance in
IFRS 3 to determine whether the acquisition of an investment property is a business combination.
The Bank is currently assessing the impact of the amendments on its financial statements.
IFRS 14, Regulatory deferral accounts (issued in January 2014 and effective for annual periods beginning on or
after 1 January 2016). IFRS 14 permits first-time adopters to continue to recognise amounts related to rate regulation
in accordance with their previous GAAP requirements when they adopt IFRS. However, to enhance comparability with
entities that already apply IFRS and do not recognise such amounts, the standard requires that the effect of rate regulation
must be presented separately from other items. An entity that already presents IFRS financial statements is not eligible to
apply the standard. The amendment is not expected to have any material impact on the Banks financial statements.
Unless otherwise described above, the new standards and interpretations are not expected to affect significantly the
Banks financial statements.

Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and
which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
Cash and cash equivalents are not collateralised. All amounts are classified as neither past due nor impaired. The interest
on the short term deposit ranges from 8%-10.5% p.a. for MNT and 3.0% p.a. for USD deposits for the year ended 31
December 2013 (in 2012: from 8.0%-11.5% p.a. for MNT and 4.5%-6.5% p.a. for USD).
Cash at Bank of Mongolia and other banks and short term deposits with local banks with original maturities of less than
three months represent balances with Mongolian banks and the Bank of Mongolia.
The credit quality of cash and cash equivalents balances may be summarised based on StandardandPoors ratings or
equivalents of Moodys and/or Fitch ratings. The credit quality at 31 December 2013 and 31 December 2012 was as follows.

At 31 December 2013, MNT 1,937,970 million of loans and advances are expected to be recovered more than 12 months
after the period end (2012: MNT 418,202 million).
Loans and advances given to projects to be repaid from the State budget refers to socially beneficial projects that do
not create cash flows of their own which covers areas such as, improvement of rural and city roads, civil engineering
construction, extension and improvement of power and heat plant, building of a new railways and mortgage financing
through commercial banks for middle income families and individuals.
Interest and principal repayment as well as any resulting foreign exchange rate gain/loss is guaranteed and repaid by the
Government of Mongolia in line with the State budget every year.
Loans and advances given to corporate projects are to be repaid from the projects or borrowers future cash flow
generation and the bank also holds collateral. The Bank provides lending to corporate projects which the Government
considers priority commercial activities (air transport development, support of mining industry, railway, infrastructure,
Small and Medium Enterprises (SME), housing and manufacturing projects).
The Government of Mongolia issued a resolution No.319 dated on the 10 September 2013 to improve operations of
state owned companies. In line with this resolution, necessary work has been organized to convert the Banks loan issued
to Erdenes Tavan Tolgoi LLC to the equity of the borrower. The structure and conversion are in development and the
transaction has not yet been finalized.
On the 27 December 2013 the bank signed an amendment to its loan agreements with different Ministries and the Ministry
of Finance to convert its MNT denominated loans to the Ministries into USD denominated loans on the 30 December
2013. Previously these loans were denominated in Mongolian tugriks and as part of the original agreement the Ministry
of Finance agreed to cover any movement in the MNT loans compared to a theoretical USD loan issued on the same day.
This foreign exchange movement receivable from the Ministry of Finance was previously recorded as a Government Grant
(refer to Note 9). A total of MNT 356 billion Ministry loans were converted into USD 252 million using the original FX rates
at origination date of each loan. The conversion has no impact on Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive
Income and results in a decrease in the receivable from the Ministry of Finance of MNT 61.3 billion and corresponding
increase in Loans and receivables. Please refer to Note 20.
The analysis by credit quality of loans outstanding at 31 December 2013 is as follows:

All loans repaid by the State budget have the same credit rating as the Government of Mongolia, B1. All corporate entities
are unrated. The Management believes that all neither past due nor impaired loans are performing loans.
As at 31 December 2013 the aggregated amount of the top 5 largest borrowers is MNT 1,078,746 million (31 December
2012: MNT 394,898 million) or 49% of total loans and advances (31 December 2012: 80%).

The primary factors that the Bank considers in determining whether a loan in the collective category is impaired are its
overdue status and realisability of related collateral, if any. The Bank considers specific impairment triggering events, future
cash flows and realisability of related collateral to assess the loan impairment. As a result, the Bank presents above analysis
of the loans to be impaired.
Past due, but not impaired loans primarily include collateralised loans where the fair value of collateral covers the overdue
interest and principal repayments. The amount reported as past due but not impaired is the whole balance of such loans,
not only the individual instalments that are past due.
Movements in the provision for loan impairment during 2013 (during 2012 is nil) are as follows:

The receivables from the Ministry of Finance are due to the SME loan agreement between the Ministry of Food and
Agriculture, the Ministry of Finance and the Bank in the form of a Government Grant. In August 2012, the SME loan
agreement between the Ministry of Food and Agriculture, the Ministry of Finance and the Bank made in MNT. As part of the
agreement the Ministry of Finance has agreed to cover any movement in the MNT loans compared to a USD loan. The loan
is therefore converted into USD at the date of disbursement and settlement. Any resulting foreign exchange loss will be
reimbursed by the Ministry of Finance in the form of a Government Grant. As of 31 December 2013, this amounted to MNT
5,098 million. Up until the 27 December 2013 there were a number of other loans under this Government Grant Scheme.
Following an amendment to convert the loans in USD they are no longer included. Please refer to Note 4 for details.
The amount of receivables from Ministry of Finance on the above loan is variable depending on MNT/USD exchange rate
movements. Should the MNT appreciate in value against USD the receivable from Ministry of Finance would decrease
with the movement being expensed in the profit and loss. MNT 4,740 million of the MNT 5,098 million is non-current.
Please refer to note 8 for more details.
In line with other banks in Mongolia, the Bank offers its employees reduced rates on Mortgage loans. The Bank has
arranged this benefit by providing to State bank 0% interest funding of MNT 850 million for a period of 15 years and by

86

Development Bank of Mongolia

providing a deposit to Golomt bank at 2% p.a. for period of 20 years who in turn issue loans to the banks employees at
reduced rates. This scheme began in June 2013 with a MNT 1 billion deposit with State bank but later minor changes have
made in December 2013 to share this scheme across State Bank and Golomt Bank. The initial cost of this employee benefit
of MNT 776 million is amortised over the duration of the scheme. MNT 694 million of the MNT 746 million is non-current.
All Other receivables, prepayments and supply materials are current assets.

Current accounts with the Bank of Mongolia and State Bank on the same terms and basis as the Banks other current
accounts and deposits. Bank of Mongolia current accounts earn 0% interest and 5.6% p.a. interest is earned on the State
Bank current accounts.
The interest on the State Bank short term deposit (under three months) ranges from 9.2%-10.4% p.a. for MNT and is 3.0%
p.a. for USD deposits. The interest on time deposits which are over three months but less than a year ranges from 9.7%9.9% p.a. for MNT deposits.

the Ministry of Finance and Government Project implementation bodies (Ministry of Roads Transport Construction and
Urban Development and State Governor Administration, Ministry of Foods and Agriculture of Mongolia) and the Bank in
the form of a Government Grant.
The Development Bank of Mongolia offers its employees reduced rates on Mortgage loans as referred to in Note 9. The
Bank has arranged this benefit by providing 0% interest funding to the State Bank of MNT 850 million for a period of 15
years who in turn issue loans to the Banks employees at reduced rates. The initial cost of this employee benefit was MNT
660 million of which MNT 634 million remains on the Statement of Financial Position as a prepayment. The deposit was
therefore recorded at initiation of the scheme within the Statement of Financial Position at a value of MNT 202 million by
discounting the deposit by 10.5%. Please refer to Note 4.
For borrowings please refer to Note 15.

Under the Government Grant scheme the Ministry of Finance agreed to provide funding to pay the interest on the Euro
Medium Term Notes Programme until such time as the Bank is in an operational position to fund the interest payments
from its own sources. This amounted to MNT 23,957 million for 2012. This payment has been netted off against Interest
Expense (bond issued to international market) in accordance with IAS 20.
From October 2012 the Bank was considered to be in operational position to fund the interest itself and no further
payments from Government are expected.

20. FOREIGN EXCHANGE GAINS LESS LOSSES


Included with the Foreign exchange gain less losses is an amount of MNT 5,098 million due from the Ministry of Finance
under the Government Grant scheme in relation to the SME loan disclosed in Note 9 (2012: MNT 2,168 million).
On the 27 December 2013 the bank signed an amendment to its loan agreements with different Ministries and the Ministry
of Finance to convert its MNT loans to the Ministries into USD loans on the 30 December 2013. Previously these loans had
been part of the same Government Scheme described above. The conversion results in a decrease in the receivable from
Ministry of Finance of MNT 61.3 billion and corresponding increase in Loans and advances. As both the unrealised gains
on USD loans and the Government Grant scheme receivable disclosed in Note 9 are recorded within Foreign exchange
translation gains less losses there is no impact of this amendment on Foreign exchange translation gains less losses.

Development Bank of Mongolia


Notes to the Financial Statements 31 December 2013
(Expressed in thousands of Mongolian tugriks unless otherwise stated)

Board of Directors
The Board of Directors is responsible for the overall risk management approach and for approving the risk strategies and
principles that establish the objectives guiding the Banks activities and implement the necessary policies and procedures.
The risk strategy, including all significant risk policies, is approved and periodically reviewed by the Board of Directors.
Executive Committee is responsible for conducting the Banks daily operations consistent with the Development Bank
Law of Mongolia, Company Law and other related laws and regulations.
Credit Committee
The Credit Committee is responsible directly to the Board of Directors. It is the credit decision making body of the Bank and
operates within clearly defined parameters authorised by the Board of Director. The Committee has the following main functions:
approval of clearly defined Credit Policies and Procedures and amendments and updates;
approval of risk classification and provisioning levels;
review of the quality, composition and risk profile of the entire credit portfolio on an ongoing basis; and approval of credit
limits applicable in exposures to industrial sectors and geographical regions
Assets and Liabilities Committee (ALCO)
The ALCO is responsible for providing centralized asset and liability management of the funding, liquidity, foreign currency,
maturity and interest rate risks to which the Bank is exposed. The purpose of the ALCO is to set up the asset and liability
structure of the Banks balance sheet conducive for sustainable growth of the Bank, its profitability and liquidity through
comprehensive management of the Banks assets and liabilities and monitoring of the liquidity, foreign currency, interest
rate and other market risks. The ALCO Committee is chaired by the Chief Executive Officer.
Risk Management Committee
The Bank established the Risk Management Committee in October 2013. The Risk Management Committee is an executive
management level committee and is not a formally constituted committee of the board of the directors of the Bank. The
main duties of the committee are:
Assessment of the Companys risk profile and key areas of risk in particular;
Recommending to the management and adopting risk assessment and rating procedures;
Examining and determining the sufficiency of the Companys internal processes for reporting on and managing key
risk areas;
Assessing and recommending to the Board acceptable levels of risk;
Development and implementation of a risk management framework and internal control system.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Bank if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its
contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Banks loans and advances, and deposits in commercial banks.
The Bank has developed policies and procedures for the management of credit exposures, including guidelines to limit
portfolio concentration and the establishment of a Credit Committee, which actively monitors the Banks credit risk. The
Banks credit policy is reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors. The Banks credit policies establish:
Procedures for review and approval of loan/credit applications;
Methodology for the credit assessment of borrowers;

98

Development Bank of Mongolia


Notes to the Financial Statements 31 December 2013
(Expressed in thousands of Mongolian tugriks unless otherwise stated)

Methodology for the evaluation of collateral;


Credit documentation requirements;
Procedures for the ongoing monitoring of loans and other credit exposures.
According to the credit policy approved, the Credit Committee has the authority to approve transactions with a total
amount of up to MNT 5.0 billion. Any requests with higher amounts need to be approved by the Board of Directors.
Credit applications are originated by the Credit Department. Reports produced by the departments credit analysts are
based on a structured analysis focusing on the customers business and financial performance. The Risk Management
Department then independently reviews the credit application and the report and a second opinion is given accompanied
by a check that credit policy requirements have been met. The Credit Committee reviews the credit application on the
basis of submissions by the Credit Department and the Risk Management Department. Individual transactions are also
reviewed by the Banks Legal and Accounting Division depending on the specific risks and pending final approval of the
Credit Committee.
The Bank operates in a very specific environment and bears minimal credit risk given the guarantees it receives from the
Mongolian Government and over-collateralization of its loan portfolio.
The Banks maximum exposure to credit risk is set out below. The impact of possible netting of assets and liabilities to
reduce potential credit exposure is not significant.
Analysis of credit risk by sector of loans and advances outstanding at 31 December 2013 is as follows:

is shown on page 35.
Credit-related Commitments Risks
The Bank offers guarantees and letters of credit, which represent irrevocable assurances that the Bank will make payments
in the event that a customer cannot meet its obligations to third parties. The Bank regards guarantees and letters of credit
that they carry same credit risk exposures as loans. In other words, when issuing guarantees or letters of credit, the Bank
follows the same originating, analyzing, collateral evaluation, reviewing, monitoring, and approval processes as loans.
As stipulated in the Law on Development Bank of Mongolia, the total value of loans, and loan equivalent assets provided
by the Bank shall not exceed the amount equal to 50 times of the Banks equity capital. Total amount of letters of credit,
guarantees and securities shall not exceed the amount equal to 50 times of the equity. Above criteria as at 31 December
2013 are as follows:

Collateral and other credit enhancements


The amount and type of collateral required depends on an assessment of the credit risk of the counterparty. Guidelines
are implemented regarding the acceptability of types of collateral and valuation parameters. The main types of collateral
obtained are as follows:
Fixed asset: Land, Building, factory etc;

Movable properties: Vehicles and equipment etc;


Special property rights: Mineral licenses, Project execution right etc.,
Time deposits, Securities/Bond and Stocks
Guarantees issued from Government, reputable insurance companies, Development banks and investment bank and
commercial banks with overall rating of Stable or above.
Assets and revenues generated as a result of performance by borrower and project contractors.
Management monitors the market value of collateral, requests additional collateral in accordance with the underlying agreement,
and monitors the market value of collateral obtained during its review of the adequacy of the allowance for impairment losses.
Loan amount collection through sale of the collateral can take place by the Bank when a borrower notifies their inability
to repay the loan and requests to make repayment through its value of the collateral, or the borrower has not made
repayment for substantial period after the delivery of Notice and Demand Notice, or has not taken any initiatives to
make loan repayment. The proceeds will be used to reduce or repay the outstanding claim. The Bank does not occupy
repossessed properties for business use and has no such properties as at 31 December 2013.
Impairment Assessment
The main considerations for the loan impairment assessment include whether any payments of principal or interest
are overdue by more than 30 days or there are any known difficulties in the cash flows of counterparties, credit rating
downgrades, or infringement of the original terms of the contract.
The Bank monitors the credit quality of loans primarily based on classification of loans according to the Regulation on
Asset Classification which is used for impairment provision calculation. In accordance with this regulation, the Bank is
required to determine the quality of loans and advances based on their qualitative factors and time characteristics (i.e.
delays in repayment).
Loans are classified into the following five groups: performing, past due, substandard, doubtful, and loss.
For credit risk for off-balance sheet financial instruments, the Bank uses the same credit policies in assuming conditional
obligations as it does for on balance sheet financial instruments, through established credit approvals, risk control limits
and monitoring procedures.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Bank will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations from its financial liabilities. The
Banks approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its
liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage
to the Banks reputation.
The Bank manages each currency liquidity and aggregated liquidity as well.
ALCO is responsible for monitoring and controlling liquidity risk to which potential liquidity risks and liquidity analysis
reports are submitted on regular basis.
The Bank invests the funds in portfolios of liquid assets, in order to be able to respond quickly and efficiently to unforeseen
liquidity requirements. Since the Bank does not accept deposits, it does not have any legal obligations to maintain a
statutory deposit with the Central Bank of Mongolia.
The liquidity position is assessed and managed under a variety of scenarios, giving due consideration to stress factors
relating to both the market in general and specifically to the Bank.
The liquidity plan and maturity gap report is made by the Bank for each major currency (Over USD 1 million equivalents)
as well as an aggregated amount using the cash flow approach.

Exposure to liquidity risk


The key measure used by the Bank for managing liquidity risk is the ratio of net liquid assets to deposits from customers/
banks. For this purpose net liquid assets are considered as including cash and cash equivalents, central bank bills, current
accounts and deposits placed with Bank of Mongolia and other domestic and foreign banks less clearing delay. Details of
the reported ratio of net liquid assets to deposits from customers/banks at the reporting date were as follows:

The table below shows the financial assets and liabilities at 31 December 2013 by their remaining contractual maturity. The
amounts of liabilities and assets disclosed in the maturity table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows, gross loan
commitments and financial guarantees. Such undiscounted cash flows differ from the amount included in the statement
of financial position because the amount in the statement of financial position is based on discounted cash flows.
The Bank places short term deposits in commercial banks and deposits are flexible to call back which has comparatively
less liquidity risk.
With regards to the market risk management, stronger emphasis has been put on managing the liquidity risk and
interest rate volatility. Liquidity stress testing has been conducted on a regular basis and presented to Asset and Liability
Committee (ALCO). Movements of the interest rate spread have been discussed and analyzed during ALCO meetings.
These analyses are performed across all business units and all loans and deposit products

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as interest rate and foreign exchange rates will affect the Banks income or the value of its holdings of
financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing
the return on risk.
Management of market risks: Interest rate risk is measured by the extent to which changes in market interest rates impact margins and net income. To the
extent the term structure of interest bearing assets differs from that of liabilities, net of interest income will increase or decrease as a result of movements in
interest rates. The Bank principally manages interest rate risk through monitoring interest rate gaps. A summary of the Banks interest rate gap position on its
financial assets and liabilities are as follows:

The Bank is exposed to effects of fluctuations in the prevailing foreign currency exchange rates on its financial position
and cash flows. The Asset and Liability Management Department (ALMD) is responsible for monitoring the Banks
exchange risk and minimising its exposure. ALMD does this by setting limits on the level of exposure by currency, which
are monitored on a frequent basis. The Bank manages its currency risk primarily through assessing the impact of foreign
currency exchange rate movements on the Banks liquidity and profitability.

Capital Management
The Bank sets and monitors capital requirements for the Bank as a whole.
The Bank adopted the standardised approach which is a set of risk measurement techniques proposed under Basel II
capital adequacy rules.
Credit risk exposure is calculated by risk weighting on and off-balance sheet exposures to credit risk according to broad
categories of relative credit risk. Risk-weights are determined according to specified requirements that seek to reflect the
varying levels of risk attached to assets and off-balance sheet exposures.
Foreign currency exchange risk exposure in a single foreign currency is derived by subtracting the aggregate value of
financial liabilities in that foreign currency from the aggregate value of the financial assets in that foreign currency.
The Banks policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to
sustain future development of the business. The impact of the level of capital on shareholders return is also recognized
and the Bank recognizes the need to maintain a balance between the higher returns that might be possible with greater
gearing and the advantages and security afforded by a sound capital position.

As of 31 December 2013 and 31 December 2012 all of the Banks financial liabilities were carried at amortised cost.

25. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Determination of fair value and fair value hierarchy


Fair value measurements are analysed by level in the fair value hierarchy as follows: (i) level one are measurements at
quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, (ii) level two measurements are valuations
techniques with all material inputs observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that
is, derived from prices), and (iii) level three measurements are valuations not based on observable market data (that is,
unobservable inputs). Management applies judgement in categorising financial instruments using the fair value hierarchy.
If a fair value measurement uses observable inputs that require significant adjustment, that measurement is a Level 3
measurement. The significance of a valuation input is assessed against the fair value measurement in its entirety.
The Banks principal financial instruments comprise of cash on hand and in bank, deposits, loans and advances, other
current assets, accounts and other payables and borrowings. The management considers that the carrying amounts of
financial assets and liabilities recognized in the financial statements approximate their fair value except for the Banks
bond.
Fair Values of Financial Assets and Liabilities
The Bank has no financial assets or liabilities carried at fair value i.e. all of the Banks financial assets and liabilities are carried
at amortised cost. The Bank determines fair values for those financial instruments as follows:
(i) Financial assets and liabilities for which fair value approximates carrying amount
For financial assets and financial liabilities that are liquid or have short term maturity of
less than one year, carrying amounts approximate their respective fair value.

(ii) Fixed rate financial instruments


The fair value of unquoted fixed interest rate instruments was estimated based on estimated future cash flows expected
to be received discounted at current interest rates for new instruments with similar credit risk and remaining maturity.
Thus, market interest rates when they were first recognized are compared to the current market rates offered for the
comparable financial instruments available in Mongolia. In case there were no significant changes in market rates, carrying
amounts approximate fair value of the instrument.
The Bank does not operate in a normal market environment. On the asset side loans are provided to socially and
economically important entities or sectors at well below normal commercial market rates. The rate of the Bank has issued
loans to both Ministries and Corporates has not significantly changed since inception and thus, carrying value of lending
approximates its fair value.
The Bank has only one long term fixed rate debt instrument Bond issued to international market which was fully
guaranteed by Mongolia and issued back in March 2012 at a rate of 5.75%. This bond is listed on the Singapore Stock
Exchange and its fair value has been calculated using its quoted price as at 31 December 2013.
Discount rates, used below, depend on currency, maturity of the instrument and credit risk of the counterparty. The
increase in range in 2013 is due to new one off specific loan agreements and do reflect a general increase in the interest
rates being charged by the bank in this specific market. The discount rates were as follows:

Tax legislation. Mongolian tax, currency and customs legislation is subject to varying interpretations, and changes, which
can occur frequently. Managements interpretation of such legislation as applied to the transactions and activity of the
Bank may be challenged by the relevant authorities.

Development Bank of Mongolia


Notes to the Financial Statements 31 December 2013
(Expressed in thousands of Mongolian tugriks unless otherwise stated)

The Mongolian tax authorities may be taking a more assertive position in their interpretation of the legislation and
assessments, and it is possible that transactions and activities that have not been challenged in the past may be
challenged by tax authorities. As a result, significant additional taxes, penalties and interest may be assessed. Fiscal periods
remain open to review by the authorities in respect of taxes for five calendar years preceding the year of review. Under
certain circumstances reviews may cover longer periods.
The Mongolian tax legislation does not provide definitive guidance in certain areas, specifically in areas such as VAT,
withholding tax, corporate income tax, personal income tax, transfer pricing and other areas. From time to time, the Bank
adopts interpretations of such uncertain areas that reduce the overall tax rate of the Bank. As noted above, such tax
positions may come under heightened scrutiny as a result of recent developments in administrative and court practices.
The impact of any challenge by the tax authorities cannot be reliably estimated; however, it may be significant to the
financial position and/or the overall operations of the entity.
Management believes that its interpretation of the relevant legislation is appropriate and the Banks positions related
to tax and other legislation will be sustained. Management believes that tax and legal risks are remote at present. The
management performs regular re-assessment of tax risk and its position may change in the future as a result of the change
in conditions that cannot be anticipated with sufficient certainty at present. As of 31 December 2013, management has
assessed that recognition of a provision for uncertain tax position is not necessary.

27. SEGMENT REPORTING


Operating segments are components that engage in business activities that may earn revenues or incur expenses,
whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (CODM), and for which discrete
financial information is available. The CODM is the person - or group of persons - who allocates resources and assesses the
performance for the entity. The functions of the CODM are performed by the Management Board of the Bank.
The Bank is a development finance institution dedicated to the economic and social progress of Mongolia. The Banks
products and services are similar and are structured and distributed in a fairly uniform manner across borrowers.
Based on the evaluation of the Banks operations, management has determined that the Bank has only one reportable
segment since the Bank does not manage its operations by allocating resources based on a determination of the contribution
to net income from individual borrowers. Management receives and reviews financial information in IFRS format.
The Banks revenue is received solely from entities with Mongolia. All non-current assets of the Bank are located within
Mongolia.
