We are committed to having better disclosure and corporate governance through dialogue with investors, companies and regulators. We look forward to share our experience with fellow SSE partner exchanges and to contribute towards sustainable development in the Mongolian capital market,” said Mr. Erdenebat Jadamba, CEO of the Mongol Securities Exchange.

The SSE initiative is a UN Partnership Programme organised by UNCTAD, the UN Global Compact, UNEP FI and the PRI. The SSE’s mission is to provide a global platform for exploring how exchanges, in collaboration with investors, companies (issuers), regulators, policymakers and relevant international organizations, can enhance performance on ESG (environmental, social and corporate governance) issues and encourage sustainable investment, including the financing of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. The SSE seeks to achieve this mission through an integrated programme of conducting evidence-based policy analysis, facilitating a network and forum for multi-stakeholder consensus-building, and providing technical assistance and advisory services.
