What is the Debt Management Performance Assessment (DeMPA)? DeMPA is a methodology for assessing public debt management performance through a comprehensive set of performance indicators spanning the full range of government debt management functions It is firmly grounded in the Public Expenditure and Financial Accountability (PEFA) methodology and offers a drill down on debt management It may be applied in all developing countries Covers all Central Government DeM and connected activities Exception: DSA and debt reporting include total non-financial public sector debt and loan guarantees Flexible application in sub-national context but keeping in view the degrees of subnational borrowing jurisdictions, a more focused tool is being developed 3 What is the Debt Management Performance Assessment (DeMPA)? Scoring methodology: adapted from PEFA Quantifiable letter scores (A to D), where Minimum requirement = Score C Important for effective debt management Absence of minimum requirement = Score D Signals an area of priority attention Sound practice = Score A (B intermediate for more granularity) Not rated if process/system does not exist (e.g., derivatives) Difference with PEFA Meeting all criteria for the minimum requirements is important for effective DeM No aggregation across indicators and no weights assigned to scores 4 2
DeMPA Objective Assess public debt management performance capacity Monitor performance overtime Enable design of reform program Fosters donor harmonization based on common understanding of priorities Methodology coverage 15 Debt Performance Indicators (DPI) 35 Dimensions Covers six core DeM functions Complemented by a Guide provides background material, rationale, indicative questions Implementation Assessment missions Performance Report No conditionality Report is released at the authorities discretion Demand driven Features of DeMPA DeMPA Indicators» Standardized metric help to measure DeM performance» Highlights strengths and weaknesses» Indicators are outcome-based not input-based (except DPI 13)» Based on sound practice» Neutral regarding institutional arrangements for DeM in country 6 3

DeMPA Indicators link with Lifecycle of a Loan Lifecycle is effectively the same for each of the following: Multilateral, bilateral, and commercial loans Treasury bills and bonds International, euro, and global bonds Other forms of borrowing Investment of cash balances Derivative transactions 9 Life cycle Stages We will examine the lifecycle in four stages: Planning Contracting Servicing Reporting We will show how each DPI fits into these four stages 10 5
Planning The planning process is needed to ensure that the following are in place for the government to borrow and transact: 1. Legislation (primary and secondary) 2. Managerial structure and policy setting 3. Government debt strategy 4. Co-ordination mechanisms with macroeconomic policies (fiscal and monetary policy) DPI 1 DPI 2 DPI 3 DPI 6 DPI 7 11 Planning Contracting 12 6
Negotiating and contracting should be undertaken within authorities and limits, and in accordance with the debt strategy, covering: 1. Domestic borrowing 2. External borrowing DPI 8 DPI 9 Contracting 3. Loan guarantees 4. On-lending 5. Derivatives DPI 10 13 Planning Contracting Servicing 14 7
Systems and procedures are needed for recording, monitoring, settling, and accounting for all debt and debt-related transactions in a secure and controlled environment: 1. Cashflow forecasting and cash balance management DPI 11 2. Debt administration and data security DPI 12 3. Capacity and resources segregation of duties, staff capacity, and business continuity DPI 13 4. Debt recording Servicing DPI 14 15 Planning Reporting Contracting Servicing 16 8
Reporting Reporting ensures transparency and accountability ab for debt management ag policy and operations: 1. Evaluation of debt management operations 2. Internal and external audit DPI 4 DPI 5 3. Reporting DPI 15 17 Planning Reporting Contracting Servicing 18 9
