10 MECHANICS AND TRADE OFFS
11 Complicated interaction and trade offs
12 Drivers of debt: fiscal effort, growth, interest rate 12 Debt-to-GDP Factors Driving Debt Reversals Baseline w/ fiscal effort 5 w/ fiscal effort and higher g 5 w/ fiscal effort, higher g and lower r 4 4 t-1 t t+1 t+2 t+3 t+4 t+5 t+6 t+7 t+8 t+9 t+1 Assumptions: Baseline real growth: 1.2 percent (excluding drag f rom risk premium). Underlying interest rate: 2 percent. Starting debt-to-gdp ratio: 9 percent. Maturity (average): 7 years. Fiscal multiplier: 1 and persists for 4 years. Credibility effect: 15 bps per 1 percent of GDP adjustment. The structural primary balance is adjusted by 2 percent of GDP in t and 1 percent more in t+1. Higher growth and lower interest scenarios increase/decrease baseline rates by 1 percentage point respectively. 6
13 Consolidation: to frontload or not to frontload? Growth and Primary Balance Paths for Achieving a Given Debt Reduction Primary Balances (Percent of GDP) 1. Deviations from Baseline Output Levels (Percent) Gradual Gradual -7. Up-front -1. Up-front Up-front (state-dependent multiplier) t-1 t t+1 t+2 t+3 t+4 t+5 t+6 t+7 t+8 t+9 t+1 t-1 t t+1 t+2 t+3 t+4 t+5 t+6 t+7 t+8 t+9 t+1 Assumptions: Baseline real growth: 1.2 percent (excluding drag from risk premium). Underlying interest rate: 2 percent. Starting debt -to-gdp ratio: 9 percent. Maturity (average): 7 years. Fiscal multiplier (regular) : 1 and persists for 4 years. Credibility effect: 15 bps per 1 percent of GDP adjustment. Fiscal multiplier (state-dependent): 1.5, peaks in t+1 and persists for 5 years. The structural primary balance is adjusted in order to meet a 6 percent of GDP target by t+1 under two strategies: gradual adjustment over 5 years (total adjustment needed is 6 percent of GDP) or up-front adjustment (total adjustment needed is 4.8 percent of GDP with regular multiplier and 5.3 percent of GDP with state-dependent multiplier).
14 Credibility effects: Relatively small? Deviations from Baseline Output (Percent) Debt Reversals with Credibility Effects Debt (Percent of GDP) Multiplier effect fiscal effort + credibility Baseline + fiscal effort + credibility -3. t-1 t t+1 t+2 t+3 t+4 t+5 t+6 t+7 t+8 t+9 t+1 Assumptions: Baseline real growth: 1.2 percent (excl.drag from risk premium). Starting debt-to-gdp ratio: 13 percent (closer to D_max of 17). Fiscal multiplier: 1 and persists for 4 years. Baseline primary balance: t-1 t t+1 t+2 t+3 t+4 t+5 t+6 t+7 t+8 t+9 t+1 Underlying interest rate: 2 percent. Maturity (average): 7 years. Credibility effect: 3 bps per 1 percent of GDP adjustment. The structural primary balance is adjusted by 2 percent of GDP in t and another 1 percent of GDP in t+1.
15 UNDERSTANDING PAST DEBT REDUCTIONS
16 26 major debt reductions since 198
17 Some starting in quite difficult conditions Sources: IMF WEO; and IMF Staff calculations.

21 POLICY LESSONS
22 Good news and bad news Examples of successful debt reductions, even under adverse circumstances Current environment shifts much of the burden to fiscal policy Trade offs (where there is a choice)
23 Policies Well designed consolidation: targeted, gradual, within good medium term strategy for those that can wait Monetary policy Structural reforms for growth
