Corruption in Mongolia
Corruption in Mongolia remains a significant issue that affects its economic development and erodes public trust in state institutions. The existing state instrumentalities and legal frameworks fail to completely eradicate corrupt practices, which continue to persist across various sectors. Mongolia ranked 114th out of 180 countries in Transparency International’s 2024 Corruption Perceptions Index, with a low score of 33 out of 100, the same rating the country has posted since 2022. This stagnation reflects long-standing concerns about the effectiveness of anti-corruption measures and the entrenchment of elite interests in political and economic spheres.
