It finds that the Enhanced HIPC initiative cut debt ratios in half for 18 countries, but in eight of these countries, the ratios have come to once again exceed HIPC thresholds. Debt reduction alone is not a sufficient instrument to affect the multiple drivers of debt sustainability. Sustained improvements in export diversification, fiscal management, the terms of new financing, and public debt management are also needed, measures that fall outside the ambit of the HIPC initiative. 410 0$aIndependent evaluation studies. 606 $aDebt relief$zDeveloping countries 606 $aDebts, External$zDeveloping countries 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aDebt relief 615 0$aDebts, External 676 $a336.3/6 700 $aLala$b Shonar$f1973-$01043721 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450179003321 996 $aDebt relief for the poorest$92468886 997 $aUNINA
