The growth of public debt in the world's largest economies worries financial markets


July, 16 2024
watermark Economic news

The victory of the left-wing coalition in the French elections forced investors to pay attention to the country's financial problems. The budget deficit remains high at 5.5% of GDP, and the EU forecasts debt growth to 139% of GDP by 2034. 


In the United States, the national debt is expected to grow from 97% to 122% by 2034. Donald Trump's popularity on the eve of the election is also worrying investors. They fear that his victory, especially under a Republican Congress, could lead to an increase in budget deficits and inflation.


Italy is facing EU disciplinary measures due to a budget deficit of 7.4%, which is the highest in the EU. 


In the UK, the 2022 tax cuts caused the pound sterling and government bond prices to fall, forcing the central bank to intervene. The new Labour government, promising economic growth under tight control, is facing the problem of public debt, which is close to 100% of GDP.


Japan's national debt is more than twice the size of its economy – 261% of GDP. However, the bulk of the debt belongs to domestic investors, which reduces the risk of massive capital outflows.
