The UK DebtManagement Office DMO , was established on 1 April 1998. The DMO is responsible for carrying out the Her Majesty s Government Government s government debtdebtmanagement policy of minimising financing costs over the long term, taking account of risk, and managing the aggregate cash needs of the Exchequer in the most cost effective way, in both cases consistently with the objectives of monetary and any wider policy considerations. In institutional terms, the DMO is legally and constitutionally part of HM Treasury , but as an executive agency, it operates at arm s length from Ministers. The Chancellor of the Exchequer determines the policy and financial framework within which the DMO operates, but delegates to the Chief Executive operational decisions on debt and cash management, and day to day management of the office. Prior to the establishment of the DMO, management of the Government s debt was undertaken by the Bank of England on behalf of the Treasury. The change was implemented following the incoming Government s decision to give the Bank of England independence in setting monetary policy. ref name Framework http www.webcitation.org 5fJyfyQgZ Executive Agency Framework Document ref References references External links http www.dmo.gov.uk UK DebtManagement Office http blog pfm.imf.org pfmblog 2007 11 7th imf debt ma.html 7th IMF DebtManagement Forum, Brian Olden, IMF FAD HM Treasury Economy of the United Kingdom Category Government debt Category Organisations based in the City of London Category Economy of the United Kingdom Category Executive agencies of the United Kingdom government ... more details
