The report finds that the corruption problem is growing in Mongolia, and describes Mongolia as being at a crossroads. There is still time for Mongolia's leadership, with the support of the international community, to make decisions that will put the brakes on, and even reverse, current trends. However, if decisive action is not taken soon, the report warns that the patterns that are currently emerging can easily become a mutually re-enforcing cycle. The report describes key systemic weaknesses which facilitate corruption, and provides recommendations for action.

The major finding of the report, consistent with other quantitative and qualitative studies conducted previously, is that opportunities for corruption are increasing in Mongolia at both the "petty" or administrative and "grand" or elite levels. Both types of corruption should be of concern to Mongolians, but grand corruption should be considered a more serious one because it solidifies linkages between economic and political power that can negatively impact or ultimately derail democracy and development, as it has in other post-Communist countries.
