One of the primary causes of the current economic problems is the large level of debt that has built up over time. Moreover, there is great concern about the rapid growth of government debt that has occurred recently and may continue for years to come.
The Government and Debt Database provides extensive history on debt at the macro level, with this information broken down into domestic and external debt, government debt and the debt of the economy as a whole. What happens when government debt exceeds GDP? What happens when external debt gets to large? How much deleveraging must occur? Study past cases where this occurred by combining this information with the other databases to carry out detailed analysis of the past and present.
