OBSERVATIONS REGARDING
SOE’S
Key Elements in SOE governance
OECD Guidelines on Corporate Governance of SOEs
1. State governance of SOEs
– Effective Legal and Regulatory Framework for SOEs
– State Acting as an Owner
2. Corporate governance of SOEs
– Key concepts– separation of responsibilities
• Governance-- by the board of directors
• Executive Management-- of day-to-day company affairs
Global Best Practice Objectives of SOEs
• To be at least as profitable and efficient as
comparable private sector enterprises
• To use progressive employment practices
• To be socially responsible corporate citizens
• To create sustainable value for the society
Legal and Regulatory Frameworks on State Ownership
• Law on Management and Financing of Budgetary
Institutions (LMFBI)
• Law on State and Local Property (LSLP)
• Decree of State Property Committee
• Department of State Property Management and
Privatization
• Department of Monitoring, Registration, and
Procurement
Mongolian Laws and
Regulations
OECD Guidelines on CG of
State-owned Enterprises
Law on Management and Financing of Budgetary
Institutions: Article 22.1
“Minister of Finance controls finances of SOEs and SPC
controls work performance”
Chapter 1.B: effective Legal and Regulatory
Environment
“Government should strive to simplify and streamline the
operations practices and the legal form under which
SOEs operate”
Law on Management and Financing of Budgetary
Institutions: Article: Article 30.1
The CEO to list all procurements expenses and supplier
Chapter 2. B: State as an Owner
The government should not be involved in the day-today management of SOEs and allow them full
operational autonomy to achieve their defined objectives
Law on State and Local Property (11.8)
“SPC is to take off accounts assets, review requests for
procurement and make procurement decisions”
Chapter 2.C: State as an Owner
The state should let SOE boards exercise their
responsibilities and respect their independence.
Law on State and Local Property (18.5)
“SOE administrative posts and total staff numbers will
be set by the SPC”
Chapter 2. B: State as an Owner
The government should not be involved in the day-today management of SOEs and allow them full
operational autonomy to achieve their defined objectives
Principles for Operations and Regulation of SOEs
• Operational autonomy to implement policies
established by their boards of directors
• Competitive conditions comparable to private sector
enterprises in non-monopoly sectors
• The role of the Government in ownership of SOEs
separate from Government regulation
– SOEs shall not receive more favorable treatment than
private sector enterprises
Responsibilities of SPC re SOEs
• SPC primary Government agency for oversight of
SOEs
– Voting shares of SOEs
– Appointment or election of members of BoDs
– Consultation with boards and ministries on annual
performance targets
– Monitoring implementation of performance targets
Business Plans of SOEs
• Targets with respect to:
– Production of goods or services
– Product development
– Market development
– Human resource development
– Advancement in use of technology
– Productivity
– Composition of assets and liabilities
– Profitability
SPC SOE monitoring unit
• Advise SPC on developing and implementing ownership policy with
respect to:
– Strategic direction of SOEs
– Annual business plans and performance targets
– Proposals to restructure particular SOEs
– Need for management contracts for particular SOEs
– Sale of shares in SOEs to other investors
– Monitor performance of SOEs against targets
– Performance of boards of directors of SOEs
– Conduct inspections of SOEs
Effective Legal and Regulatory Framework
(OECD SOE CG Guidelines)
• Governments should strive to simplify and
streamline the operational practices and the
legal form under which SOEs operate
State Acting as an Owner
(OECD CG Guidelines)
• The government should not be involved in the
day-to-day management of SOEs and allow
them full operational autonomy to achieve
their defined objectives
• The state should let SOE boards exercise
their responsibilities and respect their
independence
State Oversight of SOEs
• Rules contain many inappropriate elements contrary to OECD
Principles
–
–
–
–
Top down, rigid approach
Little room for exercise of discretion
Suggests static versus dynamic business environment
Diffuses accountability among SPC, SPC departments, BoD, GB, SB,
COPA and ministries
• Impression…
–
–
–
–
Prevents expeditious actions
Not reflect understanding of business motivations
Discourages creative thinking
Discourages constructive dissent
State Governance of SOEs
• Impression…
– Discourages leadership
– Discourages ambitious persons from SOEs
• Leaders have to develop their plan, adjust plan, not simply
implement plan determined by others
• “Leaders run to problems, not away”
• Excessive liability—direct and third party in SOE rules-discourages addressing problems
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR
IMPROVING CORPORATE
GOVERNANCE OF
MONGOLIAN SOES
I: Ensuring an Effective Legal and Regulatory
Framework for State-Owned Enterprises
1. Complete the corporatization process and
harmonize SOEs’ legal status in the economy.

SOEs comply with the OECD Guidelines on
Corporate Governance of State Owned Enterprises
based on:
1. The OECD Principles of Corporate Governance;
2. Other international corporate governance standards and
research;
3. Mongolian Company Law;
4. Mongolian “Code of Corporate Governance” (2007).

Selecting the Specific Measurements in the CGRI
The selection of the specific measurements within each
category was based upon four considerations:
1. the relevance of each variable to effective governance based on
internationally-recognized best practices of OECD in corporate
governance;
2. actual legal requirements pertaining to corporate governance that
now exist in Mongolia,
3. relevance to the SPC’s mission; and
4. ease at both obtaining and evaluating compliance with the actual
measure.

3- IMPROVING OPERATIONAL
PERFORMANCE
Balanced Scorecard Method:
Strategic Management with Metrics
Balanced Scorecard Program for SOEs
• The pilot project was intended to demonstrate how
effectively implemented balanced scorecard systems can
help an organization in many ways:
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
Increase focus on strategy and results instead of tasks;
Break down uncoordinated communication between departments;
Better understand and react to customer/client needs;
Improve organizational performance by measuring what matters;
Make better decisions using leading performance indicators
Help leaders budget time and resources more effectively;
Help leaders and employees prioritize the work they do.
• Program was designed to translate high level organizational
strategy into something that employees can understand and
act upon in their daily operations and activities.
Overview of Performance Measurement Systems
• A performance measurement system enables an enterprise to
plan, measure, and control its performance according to a predefined strategy. In short, it enables a business to achieve
desired results and to create shareholder value.
• The major performance measurement systems in use today are
profiled below (in order of global adoption) and include:
–

–
The Balanced Scorecard
Activity based costing
Economic value Added
Quality Management
Customer Value Analysis/Customer Relationship Management
Performance Prism
What is the Balanced Scorecard?
• The balanced scorecard is a strategic planning and
management system that is used extensively in
business and industry, government, and nonprofit
organizations worldwide.
• The tool is used to align business activities to the
vision and strategy of the organization, improve
internal and external communications, and monitor
organization performance against strategic goals.

EPRC Balanced Scorecard Program: Process
• Formed BSC teams from employees drawn from a various areas of the
organization.
• The Strategic Management Teams: lead the process by providing
policy guidance, define major strategic elements, committing resources,
establishing schedules, and approve scorecard work.
• Four Strategic Theme Teams developed strategic objectives and
strategy maps for each strategic theme, as well as identified process
improvement and other scorecard ideas such as performance
measures and initiatives.
• A Communications Team developed BSC Communications Plan by
which all staff and stakeholders of the companies will be kept informed
• A Reporting Team developed new BSC Reporting Framework of BSC
performance measures and achievements against targets.
Balanced Scorecard: The 8 Week Training Program
1- Introductory training for the company’ senior
management (20 sr. Staff from each company)
2- Establishment and initial training of the company’s 7
BSC implementation teams. (50 people)
3- Train the Trainer Course (for in-house company BSC
Champions) (22 people from 3 companies)
4- BSC implementation development workshop
Altogether 8 weeks of contact time.
Sample Strategy Map for SPC SOEs
Balanced Scorecard Program: Outcomes
• Senior managers developed capacity to implement the BSC methodology
• Developed a Corporate Strategy document plus draft strategic objectives
and strategy maps in each of their 4 major strategic areas.
• Implementation teams developed BSC performance measures and
targets associated with the achievement of their strategic objectives.
• A group of BSC ‘champions’ are capable of providing leadership in
designing and implementing the BSC methodology.
• Companies developed a number of performance measures and initiatives
• Companies will develop their BSC frameworks by June-July 2011
• The companies may require final assistance around this time (August
2011).
Concern: Participants expressed concern that their Board members or the SPC may not
support the implementation of the BSC methodology
.
Balanced Scorecard Program: Recommendations
1. Hold a BSC training for SOE directors of the Boards
2. Establish BSC SOE Project as a long-term Mongolian Government project:
3. Establish clear objectives and targets for the BSC Project and a timetable for
implementation.
4. Finalize development and implementation of the BSC methodology in the initial 3
SOE’s during 2011, with full implementation of the methodology in those
companies from 1 January 2012.
5. Perform a formal evaluation of the success or otherwise of the pilot project
should follow at the end of 2012 and again in 2013.
6. Link the development and implementation of the BSC methodology in the
Mongolian public sector with the implementation of good Corporate Governance.
7. Establish a Mongolian BSC Institute to support the ongoing development and
implementation of the BSC methodology in Mongolia.
8. Develop a broader long-term plan for the implementation of the BSC
methodology and Corporate Governance across the Mongolian public sector.

•
EPRC responded to the request by the GoM of design and implement the
Corporate Leadership and Strategic Management Development Program.
EPRC conducted CGRI survey and received 11 responses. One was
unusable.
Balanced Scorecard exercises were conducted at three pilot SOEs,
including: Central and Regional Electric Transmission Grid; UB Electric
Distribution Co; and, Darhan Metallurgical Plant
These three companies have developed their annual strategic plans with
performance indicators that will be submitted to the GoM on Nov 30th, using
the BSC tool.
With the CGRI, SOEs will have a dashboard to manage their operations
more efficiently, and SPC will be able to govern the SOEs more effectively.
Finally, the exercise will help strengthen CG and strategic management by
improving transparency; accountability; responsibility; and, fair and
equitable treatment of all stakeholders.
A set of recommendations for the need for sweeping reforms for
reorganizing the SOEs is provided.
