ULAN BATOR, Nov. 21 (Xinhua) -- The Mongolian parliament voted on Thursday to accept the country's central bank governor's resignation.
More than 57 percent of 42 lawmakers attending the session voted for approving the resignation of Nadmid Bayartsaikhan, president of the Bank of Mongolia.
Bayartsaikhan presented his resignation letter to parliament speaker Gombojav Zandanshatar on Friday.
This came after Mongolia was included in the "grey list" of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) because the country did not pass requirements by the FATF to combat money laundering and the financing of terrorism.
Bayartsaikhan was appointed to his position in 2016.
