Ganbold Davaadorj was elected as the Member of Parliament known as the State Great Hural of Mongolia between 1992 and 2000. Ganbold was the Chairman of the Parliament's Economic Policy Standing Committee from 1996 to 2000.[2][3] He is considered to be one of the main people behind the Mongolian economic reforms of the early 1990s.[4] In 1998 he was nominated for the position of Prime Minister of Mongolia five times between July 24 and the end of August of that year, and rejected by President Natsagiin Bagabandi on each occasion.
In the end the Democratic Union gave up on getting Ganbold in as Prime Minister and instead nominated Janlavyn Narantsatsralt, whom was approved by the President of Mongolia.
Ganbold is closely connected with the Buryat Mongol people.
