Management and Evaluation of Credit Risks from SOEs and Government Guarantees

TARGET GROUP | High and mid-level officials from developing countries and transition economies working on management of direct contingent liabilities of the central government.

DESCRIPTION | Managing government guarantees is difficult because the costs of guarantees are hard to estimate and typically do not show up in the reported budget deficit or level of public debt. A good framework for managing guarantees can help governments overcome the difficulty by, among other things, creating for guarantees some of the discipline and transparency that the budget and the monitoring of public debt create for ordinary government spending. Similar risks are noted while monitoring the debt of state-owned enterprises (SOEs) and on-lending debt portfolio, which create implicit continent liabilities to the government. The course will discuss such risks and include application of the credit risk assessment Excel models and a methodological guide.
