Debt to GDP by Country


This list is ranked by Debt to GDP indicating the percentage of debt held by each country by their government. This results from governments spending more than they take in revenue and is based on the country’s national debt.

Interest rates have been historically low for a decade and every country has leveraged its spending with debt.

This list also includes the populations of the 182 countries and localities listed and it’s amazing how many countries and reported areas have small populations close to the populations we have in cities and States in the US.

Japan tops the list with a Debt to GDP of 234%, but the Japanese are big savers and they fund most of the debt.
US Debt to GDP at 109.45% is a concern and US federal government spending should be lowered.
