Since 2000, housing finance has been developed based on the private sector. While the financial supply of this sector has been funded by independent financial resources, down payments for orders and bank loans, financial demand was funded by public deposits, family support, and relatively high interest rate loans.
Providing the constantly increasing housing demand with resources that are only based on bank deposits was problematic, as it meant financing long-term financial needs with short-term finances. It resulted in problems such as short-term mortgages with high interest rates.
As banks actively grew in tandem with the country’s GDP growth, a rise in housing market demands made it even more necessary to develop a secondary mortgage market.
Housing finance systems are comprised of primary and secondary mortgage markets. The primary mortgage market has been developing in Mongolia since 2003, together with the introduction of mortgages to the Mongolian banking system.
As of December, 2016 total outstanding mortgages had grown to 4,018.3 billion MNT, while mortgages issued under sub-program initiated by government was 3.115.9 billion MNT ( 77.5%), banks own funding mortgages at 805.0 billion MNT (20.0%), mortgages funded by other source is at 97.4 billion MNT (2.4%).
As of December, under sub-program 2,123.0 billion MNT (68%) of mortgages sold to MIK, 757.6 billion MNT (24%) is 8 percent mortgage loan, and 235.3 billion MNT (8%) is 5 percent mortgages.
