Structure of government debt in Europe

In the context of the Excessive Deficit Procedure (EDP) notification, Eurostat publishes government debt data biannually (in April and October). Eurostat also regularly publishes quarterly government debt data transmitted pursuant to Council Regulation (EC) No 1222/2004. In order to study the structure of debt in Europe in greater detail, Eurostat also launches a survey requesting additional information on debt maturity, currency of issuance and guarantees provided by the government. This publication summarises the main results of the most recent questionnaire.
