Abstract
This paper considers public debt management as a component of a more general problem involving fiscal planning under uncertainty. This approach has the potential to result in a new optimal debt maturity structure. Using a stochastic simulation macro-econometric model, we show that a shorter debt maturity structure is generally less expensive and may also contribute to stabilize the budget balance as interest rates tend to decline when the economy is weak.
