Aspects of external debt

Get out of debt.

The first phases of that treatment, from 1982 to 1988, relied on debt reschedulings and new liquidity support, together with a market menu of options, which allowed limited amounts of voluntary debt reductions through debt securitization at a discount, debt equity swaps and debt buy backs.

(b) Provision of legal advice and support aimed at enabling offices, departments and subsidiary organs to maximize their compliance with regulations, rules and administrative issuances consistent with the Organization's policies and purposes.

This sharp devaluation increased further the cost of debt servicing and the debt to GDP ratio.

Debt reduction, either through stock of debt reduction or debt service reduction based on a concessional rescheduling, will continue to be considered only in exceptional cases.
