DHInfrastructure advised on options for reforming water and sanitation services in Ulaanbaatar. We advised on a range of institutional, legal, and regulatory changes, including improvements to performance contracts between the Municipality of Ulaanbaatar and the water and sanitation providers and actions required to facilitate the eventual implementation of a lease contract in the sector.
