| Summary: | The little data book on external debt, a
pocket edition of Global Development Finance (GDF) 2008,
volume two, summary and country tables, contains statistical
tables on the external debt of the 134 countries that report
public and publicly guaranteed debt under the debtor
reporting system. It also includes tables of selected debt
and resource flow statistics for individual reporting
countries as well as summary tables for regional and income
groups. It is the culmination of a year-long process that
requires extensive cooperation from people and organizations
around the globe national central banks, ministries of
finance, major multilateral organizations, and many
departments of the World Bank. The little data book on
external debt provides a quick reference for users of the
GDF 2008 book, CD-ROM, GDF Online, and the electronic
subscription database. The general cutoff date for data is
December 2007. The economic aggregates presented in the
tables are prepared for the convenience of users. Although
debt ratios can provide useful information about
developments in debt-servicing capacity, drawing valid
conclusions from them requires careful economic evaluation. |
