Challenges Ahead
15 Source: Bloomberg
How will AE CBs exit their non-conventional monetary
policies?
Will EMs lose all of their gains?
How should debt managers react?
16
An international monetary coordination is required
AE CBs should coordinate with other countries on exit of their non-
conventional monetary policies
EMs should implement prudential measures
Fundamentals
Fiscal discipline
Structural reforms
Monetary Policy
EM CBs should continue to react to maintain financial stability
Debt Management
sensitivity of debt stock to risks (esp. interest rate, exchange rate, and liquidity
risks) should be decreased
