The Debt Office is responsible for debt management, guarantee issuing and co-ordination, and acts also as an internal bank for state agencies. The objective of debt management is also formulated in the Act. It stipulates that the state’s debt shall be managed so that the long-term costs are minimised while taking ris...

●Liquidity risk. The refinancing risk or roll-over risk, defined as exposure to high interest rates at time of roll-over, has traditionally been managed by limits on redemption amounts.

However, an ALM-based approach to debt management may be helpful even if one does not have a complete quantitative picture.

From a short term, tactical perspective, costs and risk are defined according to mark-to-market practice. This is the only possible way of defining costs when interacting with the market, irrespectively if you are auctioning or repurchasing domestic debt or if you are actively managing foreign currency debt.

IV. Simulation model and other risk models The Debt Office has built a stochastic simulation model, which is used jointly with qualitative reasoning, in the work on guidelines for debt management.3 The model generates paths for interest rates, exchange rates, GDP and the borrowing requirement for up to 30 years.

The risk of debt is measured as the percentage distance between the 95th and 50th percentile (the percentile distance) of the distribution of simulated costs.

It adds risk without offering expected long-term cost savings. First, the government has few foreign currency assets (i.e., the foreign exchange exposure is basically unhedged).

Third, at a somewhat more subtle level, the simulation model illustrates that (under flexible exchange rates) domestic short-term interest rates are positively correlated with the business cycle, since the central bank will vary short rates in a counter-cyclical manner.

In other words, the debt portfolios are not subjected to any stress tests, since these are hard to handle in a long-term simulation model.

To achieve the desired composition of the foreign currency debt portfolio, expressed as a benchmark portfolio, it used derivatives to transform the cash flows. Given this experience of working with derivatives, it was natural for the Debt Office in 1996 to include the krona among the currencies used for funding the fo...

This transformation involves several steps. First, the Debt Office issues a long-term krona bond. Second, it does an interest-rate swap (IRS) in kronor in which it receives payments based on a fixed interest rate and pays based on a floating III.14.

Finally, there is an interest rate swap in foreign currency to achieve the desired duration of the foreign currency exposure. At the end of 2003 around 49 per cent of the foreign currency exposure, equivalent to SKr 164 billion, was in the form of krona/currency swaps.6 Tactical debt allocation The Debt Office takes t...

The framework for this activity is a benchmark portfolio determined by the Debt Office’s Board. The Board defines a neutral portfolio in terms of currency and maturity composition and the maximum permissible deviations from this portfolio. Within these boundaries, the management of the Debt Office has the mandate to ...

The Debt Office also uses external portfolio managers (currently six, of which five act as advisors and one enters transactions on behalf of the SNDO) working with the same mandate, scaled down to a fraction of the total foreign currency debt. This practice gives an additional measuring rod for evaluating the Debt Off...

In the passive portfolio, consisting of the bulk of transactions, the aim is to be on the benchmark every day with a very small tolerance level. In the active portfolio, the SNDO, its own managers and also external managers, enter into derivative transactions in order to benefit from views on market development. The ...

The main reason is that the Debt Office is so dominant a player in the krona fixed income market, that its reallocations could move interest rates. Opportunistic behaviour by such a borrower will raise the overall level of interest rates as investors demand compensation for the additional risks they face. Given its t...

If parliament decides that the recipient of the guarantee does not have to pay, budget means must be reserved to cover the fee. The ...
