The public DSA shows total (domestic and external) PPG debt is also sustainable under the baseline, so risks to domestic debt are not assessed as significant. However, stress tests breach the prudent benchmark for the public DSA (covering both domestic and external debt) and, in only some instances, for the external DSA. The analysis suggests that shocks to gross domestic product (GDP) growth are the main potential source of vulnerability, especially for the public DSA. A weaker currency, widened fiscal deficits, lower exports, or higher interest rates present additional risks. This DSA reflects updated and more detailed loan data, which include marginally less favorable financing conditions than in the last DSA. 2018-10-07T03:39:48Z 2018-10-07T03:39:48Z 2018-06-26 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/656551537333150566/Madagascar-Joint-Bank-Fund-Debt-Sustainability-Analysis-2018-Update http://hdl.handle.net/10986/30523 English CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work Economic & Sector Work :: Debt and Creditworthiness Study Africa Madagascar
