Main Challenges for Debt Management Inertial pressure for re-dollarization of debt Increasing rates as U.S. monetary policy continues to normalize Change in local and external investors preferences towards hard-currency bonds Spillovers from the regional deterioration 33
Financial Strengths Uruguay has a significantly less risky Government debt structure Has built a sizable financial shield to reduce the vulnerabilities that affected the country in the past This provides flexibility when deciding the issuance strategy, optimizing risk and cost Underpins the credit quality of the sovereign 34
Strategic Guidelines for Debt Management Continue reducing the rollover, FX and interest rate risk Maintain a conservative pre-funding policy to cover debt services payments for the following 12 months Obtain an optimal mix of multilaterals and private debt Achieve a more dynamic domestic market Diversify our sources of funding and broaden the investor base 35
Toolbox Broaden the use of derivatives (hedging against FX and interest rate risk) Further develop of the local market (boost liquidity and extend the yield curve in LC) Use of multilateral debt as a growing funding source Reinforcement of contingent credit lines 36
