Global debts surpass 365 trillion

Global debt levels have risen to a record high, surpassing $365 trillion in the first half of 2026. This represents an increase of over $10 trillion compared to the same period last year, mainly driven by growth in emerging markets led by China. Although the pace of debt accumulation has slowed in advanced economies due to rising interest rates and higher debt servicing costs, the majority of the increase has been absorbed by governments and non-financial corporations. Additionally, the debt level is approximately 25 percentage points below its peak in early 2021, with significant inflation impacts on nominal GDP. The rise in yields on U.S. Treasury bonds primarily reflects increased government financing costs.
