Debt Instruments and Policies in the New Millennium: New Markets and New Opportunities

Ugo Panizza, Eduardo Borensztein and Barry Eichengreen

No 1576, IDB Publications (Working Papers) from Inter-American Development Bank

Abstract: Spreads on sovereign bonds are at an all-time low, at least since the current era of emerging economy bond markets began in the 1990s. This paper examines the current state of the international and domestic bond markets and asks whether the current favorable trends will constitute a durable change or a temporary fad and discusses what the IDB and other international financial institutions can do to help consolidate the positive trends and prevent new sudden stop episodes in Latin America.
