Sovereign governments typically do not issue joint debt, says Hanno Lustig. He notes that households rarely do so as well, citing good reasons for this common practice.
Lustig questions the viability of Eurobonds, emphasizing that the current structure of sovereign debt issuance presents significant obstacles to the idea of joint debt in Europe.
Lustig has previously called for reforms in the Eurozone bond market to ensure that borrowing costs accurately reflect each country's credit risk. In a recent article, he advocated for better risk pricing in sovereign debt issuance. His current comments on Eurobonds build on this focus on market discipline.
