This Conference - organized every two years by UNCTAD - provides a regular forum for sharing experiences and exchanging views between Governments, international organizations, academia, the private sector, and civil society on current issues in public finance, debt management and debt crisis prevention.

It brings together senior-level national and international debt managers and experts from around the world to discuss some of the most pertinent topics in both external and domestic debt, debt management and public finance.

More than 350 participants from over 70 countries, as well as senior representatives of international and regional institutions participated in the last Conference, held in November 2011.

The Conference will be followed by the DMFAS Advisory Group meeting.
