goods and technologies, and how they are regulated by the major exporters of the world
and how this critical aspect of international commerce affects businesses in Mongolia.
2. To raise awareness and identify strategic trade exports, imports and re-exports on “dual
use” strategic commodities that can create national military power.

Key Points:
1. There is potential synergy between the goals and outcomes that the business
organizations and their members are striving for in terms of Mongolia's trade and
economic growth.
2. Identifying the Strategic Trade Items-exports, imports and re-exports on “dual use”
strategic commodities that can be used both as commercial civilian use /toothpaste,
shampoo, etc./ and national military power /chemical & biological weapon, missile
fuselage, etc./ is essential.
3. Having a solid national strategic trade control system and industry compliance culture is
necessary; the following Main Strategic Control systems need to be adopted and enforced:
a. Law, Regulation
b. Special Licensing
c. Enforcement control mechanism
d. National sector involvement
e. International involvement
4. The seminar was useful and informative for all the companies looking to gain access to
new technologies and foreign investment, as well as those looking to expand their
overseas markets.

presented.
