Public sector debt summit

Tuesday 18 March 2025

OMFIF’s Sovereign Debt Institute is returning with its fourth Public sector debt summit in Paris. This flagship event convenes developed and emerging market public sector borrowers with leading fixed-income asset managers and investment banks.

SDI meetings have become a staple in the sovereign, supranational and agency calendar for both issuers and investors. The SDI’s Public sector debt summit in March 2024 was attended by almost 70 players in the broader SSA community. Issuers and investors made up around 60% of the audience, with the rest of the attendees representing key intermediaries in these markets.

As with all SDI in-person events, the entire day will be off the record with no media in attendance to encourage participants to speak freely and stimulate authentic discussions. There will also be ample networking opportunities.

About the Sovereign Debt Institute

OMFIF’s Sovereign Debt Institute is an important forum for issuers and investors in the public sector debt markets to discuss their priorities and concerns. The intimate format of our events has generated positive feedback from both borrowers and the buyside.

Events hosted by the SDI during 2023 generated deep discussions about core issues affecting the public sector debt markets. These included concerns about liquidity, incentives for primary dealers, the disappearance of the ‘greenium’, the impact of private placements, the role of hedge funds and the development of market infrastructure.

Throughout 2024, we will build on the success of our 2023 calendar. This will include a mixture of flagship forums with larger numbers of issuers and investors, as well as more focused groups for discussions on specific issues.
