Abstract:
This paper investigates how a government should manage international reserves whenit faces the risk of a rollover crisis. We ask, should the government accumulate reservesor reduce debt to make itself less vulnerable? We show that the optimal policy entailsinitially reducing debt, followed by a subsequent increase in both debt and reserves asthe government approaches a safe zone. Furthermore, we uncover that issuing additionaldebt to accumulate reserves can lead to a reduction in sovereign spreads.
