15 27/2/211 Conclusions The impact of the crisis was particularly evident in 28 and part of 29, but quickly began recovering in 29. The main impact was in the real sector, and the first response a stimulus that reduced borrowing needs. The output of the crisis was fast than expected (6% of GDP) in 21. This shows LAC was better prepared than in other times: Better prepared in terms of stocks, lower levels of debt with better conditions, and higher levels of reserves. Better prepared in term of flows: fiscal balances and current account balances. Better prepared with strengthened policies and institutions. Conclusions (Cont.) However, we must take into account differences in debt in the region. Emerging countries have a better debt situation. ti The emissions made after the crisis were well received by the markets with better terms than anticipated (Mexico) The debt sustainability of some Post HIPCs countries is not guaranteed. (Nicaragua, Guyana) The situation of some Caribbean countries is even more fragile. There is room for improvements in debt management in several countries 15

16 27/2/211 Key issues for countries Assess debt management and define the actions for improvements (Reform Plan, FRF) Availability of financing: Quality and Quantity The design and implementation of debt strategies and funding is crucial: Levels remain very important, some need to carry out Debt Sustainability Analyses regularly. For countries with access to various sources of financing, cost and risk analysis is crucial.
