Abstract

This document is designed primarily for government officials responsible for managing the external debt of their countries, but it should also be helpful to those with a general interest in public sector financial management, observers as well as practitioners. The entire range of external debt management is discussed here: the organizational procedures for negotiating foreign loans and credits, the control and coordination of borrowing decisions, risk management, the administration of new loans, external debt accounting and statistics. Basic accounting principles are reviewed and the use of computers is explored. As background, the document reviews trends in financial flows from industrialized to developing countries, the legal aspects of debt management, and external debt restructuring. The document contrains a glossary of key terms and a bibliography or major books on debt management. Each chapter has references to articles, books and technical papers relevant to specific issues.

Abstract

This paper looks at the dynamics of (dis)equilibria during post-command transition. It tries to define an optimal mix between external and internal disequilibrium and to apply this concept to the analysis of the Romanian economy. The forced adjustment of the balance of payments in the 1980s is presented as a prologue to the scrutiny of transformation policy underway; results and dilemmas of macro-stabilization are dealt with in this respect. The paper ends by providing some insights into the problematique of understanding (dis)equilibria in transforming economies.

Abstract

This paper reviews economic developments in Lesotho during 1990–94. During the six years (1988/89–1993/94) under the IMF-supported programs, real GDP growth has averaged 6.5 percent, and investment has risen rapidly, owing to activities related to the Lesotho Highlands Water Project and substantial foreign private direct investment. Real gross national product growth averaged only 3.3 percent, owing to a decline in remittances, as a major retrenchment of mine workers in South Africa occurred during this period. The government’s budgetary position improved substantially during the six-year period.

Abstract

This paper analyses empirically the economic factors that lead to approval of Fund financial arrangements. We account for both the economic variables that induce a country to seek an arrangement with the Fund ("demand-side" factors) and the macroeconomic policy commitments that the Fund considers when deciding whether to approve it ("supply-side" factors). Using a pooled sample of annual observations for 91 developing countries over 1973-1991, we obtain maximum likelihood estimates of bivariate and univariate probit equations to determine the probability of approval of a financial arrangement for a given country in a given year. A number of our chosen demand-side and supply-side variables are statistically significant determinants of the approval of a Fund arrangement, and the overall explanatory power of the equations is high.
