MANAGING THE STATE DEBT OF BULGARIA – ISSUES AND CHALLENGES

Authors

Keywords
public debt servicing, amortization payments, interest rate payments

Summary
Satisfying the public interest in terms of public goods and services has its lim¬its – the resource limitedness in the provision of public goods and services. Since the needs of society and individuals always exceed the available economic resources for their implementation, this necessitates the use of debt and deficit financing tools. This is particularly true for the state as an economic entity. Moreover, debt financing could be used for the formation and implementation of policies going far beyond the purely economic objectives of any government. Economic theory has already proved that the public debt, its quantity and management processes have an impact on the economic development of the country, consumption, savings and investments. Extending the debt crisis and the cataclysms in financial markets demonstrate the illusory idea of the adequacy of national economies in the management of public debt in the long term. It is objectively necessary to apply established measures as well as to approve new ones. The systematic approach for determining the multifaceted nature of public debt management has an important role in the area of analysis.
