This paper attempts to dispel some current misconceptions about the ‘debt crisis’. It does so in order to emphasise the persistent need for development with debt and hence more effective debt management on the part of debtor and creditor countries alike. If the development momentum is to be regained, misconceptions must be removed and fears allayed.
