What the figures show

History / IMF estimates

Liechtenstein: IMF data and estimates put government debt at 0.5% of GDP in 2025. The derived debt amount is US$ 0.04517 billion.

  • The debt-to-GDP ratio is unchanged from 2024.
  • This is below the median of 52.85% of GDP across 192 countries with data for the selected year.
  • The debt-to-GDP ratio is the same in 2015 and 2025.

The median is not weighted by economic size. A change in the debt-to-GDP ratio does not necessarily imply the same change in the debt amount. About the data ↗

The DataMapper API does not provide the actual/estimate cutoff for each country and series. Past years are therefore labelled history/IMF estimates, the current year estimate/projection, and later years projections. Historical values can be revised. There is no simulated real-time debt counter.
