The analysis should also look at the broader PFM issues including inefficiencies in other areas of PFM that prevent the productive use of debt.

- Review of the role of development partners in supporting debt management reforms in the concerned countries.
- Outline key findings and lessons from the study and present policy recommendations to put in place debt management frameworks for long-term debt sustainability.
Qualification & Experience:
- An advanced degree in economics, public finance or related. A PhD would be a significant added advantage.
- A minimum of ten (10) years of relevant professional experience in public financial management. A strong background working in the areas of debt management, cash management and government securities is a must.
