About Austria's National Debt
Austria's debt ratio is moderate by eurozone standards, supported by a wealthy, stable economy, though an aging population adds long-term spending pressure.
Austria's debt-to-GDP ratio of 82% is elevated above the IMF's informal 60% benchmark, though still manageable for a government with deep capital markets and institutional credibility. By total government debt, Austria ranks 23rd of the 138 governments tracked here.
At the current borrowing rate of $610 per second, Austria adds about $0.1 billion to its national debt every day — roughly $19 billion per year.
