Recent and upcoming

The Programme has so far worked at the country level with 66 countries, including 102 institutions.  More...

UNCTAD, through its DMFAS Programme, is firmly established as one of the leading international organisations in the field of debt management capacity building. At the crossroads between international and domestic finance, governance and information technology, the Programme helps governments with developing and transitional economies build their debt management capacity at all levels.

Through its extensive collaboration with countries and organizations worldwide, UNCTAD translates debt management practices into specialized products and services. These products and services are provided to countries through activities covered by the Programme’s framework of technical cooperation projects. Activities covered by these projects assist governments in meeting the common debt management challenges they face, such as how to produce accurate, up-to-date debt data for reporting and analysis purposes, how to develop the appropriate institutional and administrative structures for debt management and how to ensure staff are correctly trained in debt management procedures.

Project activities cover the provision of a specialized debt management software, the Debt Management Financial and Analysis System (DMFAS) as well as installation, training and assistance in its effective use, in particular to enable debt officers to establish a complete and up-to-date debt database and to provide timely and accurate debt statistics. They also cover maintenance and system support, the procurement of appropriate equipment where necessary, advice on institutional and procedural issues, participation of government officials in DMFAS training seminars in Geneva (or regional location), study tours for government officials to other DMFAS user countries, and support for debt analysis and the development of debt management strategies.
