ABSTRACT

This study  (research work ) is an  attempt to appraise  the  securitzation (Equalization or capitalization )  of debt (debt  equity swap)  as  the latest  international  debt management strategy geared towards solving Nigeria’s  debt problem.

In doing this the study  will delve to the genesis,  structure, growth and  management  of the  2000-2005  external debt in Nigeria.

Debts securitization or what is now know as “debt equity  swap” is a form of debt  conversion in which part or all of a country’s external  public debt is converted into Equity shares or securities  in government or publicly owned companies , agencies and parastatals and  these are discounted to their present  values because  of their different maturity dates.

Securitization  is  also a substitution of market oriented intermediation for institution based intermediation, therorctically, it involves  the establishment  of financial  assests and liabilities and the provision of financial services, and  can occur in two ways, one by banks acting as intermediary accepting deposits, and advancing  loans with some form of  contractual agreement, and      secondly  through traded markets where borrowers sell debt contracts some of which include commercial papers, banks acceptance certificate of deposits, euro notes etc.

This research will be based solely on secondary  data collection from Hounrals, CBN. Financial Journals CBN monthly, quarterly reports. Different  edition of CBN bullion and economic and financial  review  played a vital role on this regard. Again personnel interview  yielded positive result   to this work.

Finally  based on the data collection, Analysis  were  made  which was preceded  by recommendation and  conclusion of  this project.

During the period of this study  there were confiding figures of Nigeria external debt outstanding. The  central  banks published  figures differs from  the figure of federal office of statistics and  world debt table.

There were  expensive short and medium term   borrowings from  the international capital market (ICM)within Nigeria debt  profit which proper debt  management could have avoided. There were also huge accumulated trade arrears in Nigeria’s  debt structure.

Now  based on the above finding, the following  recommendation  were made.

Securitization of debt in view of our present economic  situation should be undertaker in a – one to one  basis or indirectly in the form of portfolio investment through the establishment of mutual funds i.e (unitrust  type of organization to which creditor belong.

There is urgent need for the compilation of Nigeria’s debt profile in order to know the exact amount of her debt, it’s structure and ownership and determine which of the debts could be subjected to the ongoing  conversion programme.          

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

BACK GROUND OF THE STUDY

The term  debt conversion is a debt management  strategy which enable a debtor country to reduce it external debt burden by changing the character of its debt .the conversion can be in different forms .debt to equity or debt securitisation or debt equalization or debt capitalization ..debt to debt or redenomination of debt in total currency ..debt for good or exports ..debt for working capital ..debt to assets ..debt to quasiequity ..relenting ..debt for restricted use cash ..debt peso swap

Debt securitization or what is now known as ‘’debt equity swap ‘’is a form of debt conversion in which part or all of a country’s external public debt is converted into equity shares or securities in government or public owned comprises agencies and prostates and these are discounted to their present values because of their different maturity dates

Debt securitization is now a contemporary issue in developing country who at the peak of the world debt crisis, could not meet up with their external debt obligation and other who in the  process trying to meet up with these obligation utilize between 25 and 45 of the annual foreign exchange earning in debt servicing .Nigeria for instance mapped out above         26 billion [42]of     the total 2000 annual expenditure for debt servicing

It can be recalled that the world debt crisis came to limited in august 2002 when Mexico and other Latin American countries like Chile .caste Rica Bolivia and brazil announced to the international  monetary fund [lmf]international finance corporation [lfc] international development association [lda] and the international capital market [lcm] made up of the London and particles of creditor that they can not longer meet up with their external debt obligation .this development greatly affected different international markets ever since ;

The creditor ;after long research and consultation introduces the alternative which is debt conversion which before 2001 was restricted to Latin American counties and non Latin American counties like Philippines and turkey ;debt conversion scheme has recently gained wide acceptance in most destroy developing counties, securitisation is also a substitution of market oriented intermediation for institution based intermediation .theoretically it involves the establishment of financial services ,and can occur in two ways ,one .by banks acting as intermediary accepting deposits and advancing loans with some form of contractual agreement and secondly through trademarked where borrower sell debt contract some of which include commercial papers banker acceptance certificate of deposit chronotes etc

Securitization exists if the balance of advantage is against both borrowers  and leader while the bank provide such service as monitory and controlling the market provide liquidity by being able to sell the securities against holding them and rate different to a borrower between securities and direct bank borrowing lies In the relative  advantage accrued to lender of the liquidity of traded.

According to IMF document report Nigeria is one of the 5thmost heavily indebted counties among the de3veloping counties who need one form of adjustment or the other in order to contain their debt  problem according to it African today ower about 60 of the global debt with Nigeria accounting

It was based on the concept and relevance of this scheme to Nigeria economy and the slow rate of implementation of this scheme that made the researcher to have  an  indepth of debt study of debt securitization and its operational paradigms

                                OBJECTIVE OF STUDY

This stud does not aim at finding a new alternative to the Nigeria debt problem other than the existing one but expose the reader to different concepts and strategies of debt conversion as an alternation to the world crisis and the implementation of debt securitzation so in some developing
