increasing debt
Debt has grown almost US$3 billion a month for last year
26-08-2022 11:11 Last month, the gross debt in a situation of normal payment rose to US$378.307 billion – around US$17 billion more than at the start of the year and US$35.747 billion more than July last year. In other words, the current fiscal deficit is close to three percent of gross domestic product, far from the targets pledged to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), whose review will begin in a few weeks. To meet them, the Central Bank would have to recover almost US$6 billion of reserves by December.
