About Bosnia & Herzegovina's National Debt
Bosnia and Herzegovina keeps debt low, but a complex postwar governance structure and political fragmentation constrain reform and EU-accession progress.
Bosnia & Herzegovina's debt-to-GDP ratio of 29% is low by international standards: higher than 10% 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, Bosnia & Herzegovina ranks 121st of the 135 governments tracked here.
At the current borrowing rate of $65 per second, Bosnia & Herzegovina adds about $6 million to its government debt every day — roughly $2.0 billion per year.
