3 3. Publc deb and defc fnancng Publc deb (% of GDP), 2009 ource: hp://en.wkpeda.org/wk/governmen_deb

4 3. Publc deb and defc fnancng The evoluon of publc deb Defnons B: sock of ousandng publc deb B/Y: publc deb as percenage of GDP To compare he level of deb across counres, we need o normalze he absolue levels by some measure of he counry sze (GDP). Ineremporal budge consran of governmen: prmary defc should be followed by prmary surpluses (Chaper 7) (G T): prmary defc (G >T = defc, G<T = surplus) r: real neres rae Toal budge defc = (G T) + rb

5 3. Publc deb and defc fnancng The evoluon of publc deb ablzaon of deb: B (or B/Y) s no ncreasng ΔB = 0 or ΔB/Y = 0 No growh & no nflaon Here focus on changes n deb level: ΔB=(G-T)+rB If ΔB > 0: oal budge defc and rsng deb elf-feedng mechansm Explosve deb growh Hgher B means hgher neres paymens: rb Even f G-T=0 deb connues o ncrease If ΔB < 0: budge surplus and declnng deb

6 3. Publc deb and defc fnancng The evoluon of publc deb For he sock of deb no o grow (ΔB = 0), he prmary surplus needs o cover he real cos of servcng he deb (T-G)=rB (T-G)/Y=r(B/Y) Deb sablzaon: Prmary surplus = deb servce Here he surplus s bg enough o sop deb of growng, bu s sll no enough o reduce he deb.

7 3. Publc deb and defc fnancng The evoluon of publc deb Growh & no nflaon growh rae of GDP (ΔY/Y) = g Growh rae of (ΔB/B)=(G-T)/B + r Change n deb rao over GDP growh n (B/Y)= ΔB/B ΔY/Y =(G-T)/B + r - g Δ (B/Y)=(G-T)/Y+(r-g)B/Y If Δ(B/Y)=0 (T-G)/Y=(r-g)B/Y If he economy s growng: s easer o keep he deb/gdp rao sable over me. If g>r he governmen doesn even need o run a prmary surplus o sablze he deb over GDP rao

8 3. Publc deb and defc fnancng The evoluon of publc deb Growh & nflaon (sudy a home) Addonal revenue of he governmen: egnorage Money ha s creaed s worh more han coss o produce. Example: f coss he U governmen $0.05 o produce a $ banknoe, he segnorage s $0.95 (gans of CB belong o governmen) Governmen can use hs revenue o fnance par of s expendures. Hgher segnorage gans means more money prnng hgher nflaon (nflaon ax) = r + π e lower real neres paymens rsng nflaon

9 3. Publc deb and defc fnancng The evoluon of publc deb Growh & nflaon Here he defc can be fnanced also by ncreasng money supply. Fnancng he budge defc wh new borrowng Fnancng he budge defc wh newly prned money ΔB+Δ(M0/P)=(G -T)+rB Δ(B/Y)+Δ(M0/P)/Y=(G-T)/Y+(r-g)B/Y The governmen creaes nflaon by ssung money Wh nflaon: s even easer o manan he deb/gdp rao sable over me.

Defaul on deb Advanage: reduce expendures oday Dsadvanage: ges harder o borrower n he fuure Popular: defaul on foregn deb To pay back deb: you need o run a prmary curren accoun (PCA) surplus PCA >0 In case of defaulng: counry wll no ge any new foregn cred n he near fuure, canno borrow abroad PCA = 0 Defaul on domesc deb: very unpopular among populaon Concluson: he counry can be emped o defaul on he foregn deb.
