Some lessons from the yield curve

Article Abstract:

The government can manage its debt if it shortens maturity or indexes it in case of a steep yield curve. The shortening of maturity or issuing of indexed debt diminishes the variability of real returns, thereby reducing the financing cost variability. Shortening maturity or issuing indexed debt can result in lowering of inflationary expectation by adding credibility to monetary policy. These are important advantages of shortening of maturities.
