The Public Debt Management Newtwork

The idea of a Network among public debt managers and other organisations dedicated to emerging countries was firstly launched in 2001 in informal meetings between the Italian Treasury and OECD, and afterwards by its inclusion in the agenda of 2002 and 2003 OECD Global Forum on Public Debt Management and Emerging Government Securities Markets. In particular, Session II of the 13th OECD Global Forum was dedicated to: “The launch of the OECD-Italian Treasury Multilateral Public Debt Management Network” .

Extract from minutes of the 13th OECD Global Forum: “One session of the Forum was the occasion to informally launch the new Multilateral Network on Public Debt Management, a new entity born from the initiative and the joint collaboration of the OECD and the Italian Treasury, intended to provide, especially to debt managers from emerging countries, with a permanent technical centre for the diffusion of debt management techniques, experiences and information, with the aim of further improving the quality and the effectiveness of debt management practices and strategies, while reducing the vulnerability of emerging countries to external financial shocks or debt crisis contagion. The Network, the main external evidence of which will be a Network dedicated Website to be released in 2004, has officially started its activity with the organization of this second session, addressing topics of interest for transition and emerging economies’ debt managers.”
