It reduces the size of government expenditure multiplier. It may be noted here that the strength or impact of crowding-out effect depends on the interest sensitivity of investment function (i.e., the slope of the IS curve) and interest sensitivity of the money demand function (i.e., the slope of the LM curve).

Increased interest rates affect private investment decisions. A high magnitude of the crowding out effect may even lead to lesser income in the economy. With higher interest rates, the cost for funds to be invested increases and affects their accessibility to debt financing mechanisms.

Monetary Policy: Central Bank tries to prevent crowding out by monetizing budget deficit. To increase the effectiveness of monetary policy, monetary accommodation is used. Monetary accommodation means that in the course of fiscal expansion, money supply is increased in order to prevent interest rate from rising.

Lower National Savings and Income With the government borrowing more, a higher percentage of the savings available for investment would go towards government securities. This, in turn, would decrease the amount invested in private ventures such as factories and computers, making the workforce less productive.

To finance the debt, the U.S. Treasury sells bonds and other types of securities (Securities is a term for a variety of financial assets). Anyone can buy a bond or other Treasury security directly from the Treasury through its website, treasurydirect.gov, or from banks or brokers.

Higher interest rates. In some circumstances, higher borrowing can push up interest rates because markets are nervous about governments ability to repay and they demand higher bond yields in return for perceived risk.

For a variety of reasons, ranging from a desire to accelerate capital spending to a policy of economic stabilization, governments may choose to raise some of their resources by borrowing rather than taxation. Most countries today run an annual budget deficit, and the deficits have tended to increase in size.

10 Answers. Governments borrowing money doesn’t create new money. So holders of government debt don’t have money they can spend (they can turn it into money they can spend but only by finding someone else to buy it). So government debt doesn’t create inflation in itself.

The public holds over $21 trillion, or almost 78%, of the national debt. 1 Foreign governments hold about a third of the public debt, while the rest is owned by U.S. banks and investors, the Federal Reserve, state and local governments, mutual funds, and pensions funds, insurance companies, and savings bonds.

As Eric Stone says, the National Debt is owed to the financial markets who lend credit, which they create themselves. In addition, they use the “gilt-edged” status of the Government bonds as security to create up to 9 times more credit which they lend to others such as the public and businesses.
