Central Europe and the Baltics - Net incurrence of liabilities

Net incurrence of liabilities, total (% of GDP)

Definition: Net incurrence of government liabilities includes foreign financing (obtained from nonresidents) and domestic financing (obtained from residents), or the means by which a government provides financial resources to cover a budget deficit or allocates financial resources arising from a budget surplus. The net incurrence of liabilities should be offset by the net acquisition of financial assets.
