Key Questions Does the public debt legislation complies with the generally accepted international standards and practices in this sphere?

10 Accounting Chamber of Ukraine INTOSAI Public Debt Committee Meeting
Audit Findings (1) - absence of the basic special law “On Public Debt” - problem with disclosure of guaranteed by the state compensations to Ukrainian citizens for deposits that were devaluated in consequence of the USSR's collapse - narrow in comparison with the INTOSAI definition of “public debt” notion, which does not include debts of local government bodies and state enterprises - division of public debt into direct debt and contingent debt has been defined not on the level of legislation but by the Ministry of Finance - the notion of “contingent debt” implies only “guaranteed debt” INTOSAI Public Debt Committee Meeting Lisbon, Portugal, June 21-22, 2007

11 Accounting Chamber of Ukraine INTOSAI Public Debt Committee Meeting
Audit Findings (2) - in official reports the Government discloses information only about the direct public debt - sometimes in public reports the Government has included the sum of guaranteed contingent debt - direct debt ratio was 80 percent (12.5 billion dollars) and the rest was a guaranteed debt (3 billion dollars) during the period from December 31, 2005 - data about the growth external debt of Ukraine is formed by the National Bank of Ukraine - there is a wide range of other public financial liabilities, which forms the notion of “contingent debt”, though they are not centrally registered INTOSAI Public Debt Committee Meeting Lisbon, Portugal, June 21-22, 2007

12 Accounting Chamber of Ukraine INTOSAI Public Debt Committee Meeting
Audit Findings (3) - public debt management system is decentralized (Ministry of Finance, National Bank) - the Ministry of Finance has been approving and registering the borrowings of local government bodies, though the accounting of this borrowings is not comprehensive - there were no plans in the Ministry of Finance to conduct internal audit of public debt operations - information gathering on public debt is not regulated - informational and analytical subsystems of public debt management have a range of defects, in particular with respect to risk analysis - officially public debt remains in the scope of 60 % GDP (2000 – 37.8 %, 2005 – 14.9 %) INTOSAI Public Debt Committee Meeting Lisbon, Portugal, June 21-22, 2007

13 Accounting Chamber of Ukraine INTOSAI Public Debt Committee Meeting
Audit Findings (4) - during the last years the Government of Ukraine has not been able to stabilize the ratio of budget deficit to GDP - total sum of public debt in foreign currency is still constant and quite substantial – about 84 % - burden of borrowings on public debt is decreasing - the State Programme on Public Debt of Ukraine for , which was planned earlier, has not been elaborated - goals and tasks on public debt in governmental action programs have not envisaged any quantitative results INTOSAI Public Debt Committee Meeting Lisbon, Portugal, June 21-22, 2007

14 Accounting Chamber of Ukraine INTOSAI Public Debt Committee Meeting
Conclusions 1. The system of public debt management differs from the generally accepted practice in this sphere 2. The national legislation in the sphere of public debt management is underdeveloped 3. Government reports disclose information about the state of public debt only in its main aspects 4. Decentralized public debt management blocks the formation of united public debt policy 5. In spite of positive changes public debt management remains underdeveloped 6. Due to unclear goals of government programs it is hard to estimate the effectiveness of public debt management INTOSAI Public Debt Committee Meeting Lisbon, Portugal, June 21-22, 2007
