Inflation and Public Debt Sustainability: Advanced Strategies for Fiscal and Monetary Stability Training Course

Introduction

The intricate relationship between inflation and public debt sustainability remains at the core of macroeconomic policy and long-term financial planning. As governments manage fiscal deficits, rising debt levels, and inflationary pressures, it is essential to understand how these forces interact and shape economic stability. High inflation can erode debt burdens, but excessive inflation risks undermining growth, credibility, and social welfare. Conversely, unsustainable debt can trigger inflationary financing and policy trade-offs that affect the broader economy.

The Inflation and Public Debt Sustainability: Advanced Strategies for Fiscal and Monetary Stability Training Course provides professionals with the tools to analyze, forecast, and design strategies for managing the interplay between inflation dynamics and debt sustainability. By combining theory, empirical evidence, and scenario-based learning, the program equips participants with actionable insights for fiscal management, monetary policy design, and long-term economic resilience.
