The title "Public Debt Management and Fiscal Policy" encapsulates the interplay between a government's fiscal decisions and its management of public debt. This paper examines the critical relationship between these two domains within the broader context of economic governance. Public debt management is highlighted as a strategic tool for policymakers to ensure fiscal sustainability, while fiscal policy shapes the macroeconomic environment in which debt operations occur. The paper delves into the complexities of debt management, considering factors such as interest rate fluctuations, borrowing costs, and debt maturity structures. It further discusses how fiscal policy can either exacerbate or mitigate the risks associated with public debt, including issues of debt sustainability, crowding out of private investment, and the burden on future generations. By analyzing case studies and empirical evidence, this paper demonstrates the importance of aligning debt management strategies with fiscal policy objectives to achieve long-term economic stability.
