About Angola's National Debt
Angola's debt is elevated and heavily tied to oil-backed loans, much of it from China; falling production and price swings have repeatedly strained its ability to service it.
Angola's debt-to-GDP ratio of 53% is moderate: higher than 44% of the 135 governments tracked here. No ratio is safe or dangerous on its own — whether a debt is sustainable depends on the interest rate on it, how fast the economy grows, the currency it is owed in and who holds it. By total government debt, Angola ranks 64th of the 135 governments tracked here.
At the current borrowing rate of $210 per second, Angola adds about $18 million to its government debt every day — roughly $6.6 billion per year. Each of Angola's 41 million residents carries an individual share of approximately $1,967. That is below the world average of roughly $14,600 in government debt per person.
