Debt-to-GDP ratio estimated to be 55.6 pc of GDP in 2026-27: FM New Delhi, Feb 1 (SocialNews.XYZ) Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Sunday said that the debt-to-GDP ratio is estimated to be 55.6 per cent of GDP in 2026-27 (budget estimate or BE), compared to 56.1 per cent of GDP in 2025-26 (revised estimate or RE). A declining debt-to-GDP ratio will gradually free up resources for priority sector expenditure by reducing the outgo on interest payments.

Namibia’s public debt expected to surpass N$168 billion by 2025/26 financial year Namibia’s public debt is forecast to increase from N$144 billion in the 2023/24 financial year to approximately N$168 billion by the 2025/26 financial year, according to Simonis Storm. Junior economist at Simonis Storm Almandro Jansen says the rise comes despite incremental gains in gross domestic product (GDP) growth and a moderate recovery in reserve buffers, reflecting ongoing structural pressures in the fiscal landscape. He says this projected trajectory implies a debt-to-GDP ratio between 68% and 68.5%, with the risk of breaching the 70% threshold by the 2026/27 financial year. Furthermore, such levels raise concerns over long-term fiscal sustainability and whether financial markets can continue absorbing high volumes of government issuance. This comes as Namibia’s fiscal pressures have been driven by three consecutive years of elevated borrowing aimed at financing recurring budget deficits, settling external debt, and advancing delayed infrastructure projects. Between 2023/24 and 2025/26, gross borrowing is expected to more than double, deepening the country’s exposure to domestic debt markets. In the 2023/24 financial year, borrowing requirements stood at N$10.1 billion, 73% of which was raised through domestic issuances. This rose to N$15.3 billion in the 2024/25 financial year, with N$12.8 billion sourced locally. For 2025/26, the government expects to borrow N$29.8 billion – N$21.2 billion from domestic bonds and N$8.6 billion through external instruments. “We are seeing a compounding effect from multiple structural factors, not just a wider deficit. This includes debt service crowding out development spending, concentrated redemption risks, Eurobond amortisation pressure, and frontloaded infrastructure execution,” Jansen says. The debt service burden is projected to reach N$13.7 billion in the 2025/26 financial year, exceeding the total development budget. “This reflects a rising stock of debt, paired with a shift toward more costly market-based, non-concessional financing. Meanwhile, maturing benchmark instruments, such as GC25 and GI25, will require refinancing to maintain liquidity and yield curve integrity,” the firm says. Meanwhile, Namibia’s 2015-issued US$750 million Eurobond will also mature in October 2025. Jansen says while the sinking fund is expected to cover approximately US$463 million of the obligation, a residual funding gap of N$2.3 billion to N$2.5 billion must be closed through new issuance or concessional finance. “Interest payments in the 2025/26 financial year are projected to reach N$13.7 billion, now surpassing total development expenditure. The rising interest burden reflects both a growing debt stock and an increasing share of market-based, non-concessional financing,” Jansen says. He says these maturities represent one of the most significant liquidity challenges on the 2025 sovereign calendar. Capital expenditure has been accelerated after prolonged delays in the 2022/23 and 2023/24 financial years, with spending ramping up in critical sectors, such as roads, energy, and water infrastructure. While this supports near-term GDP growth, the firm says it also increases financing needs and places additional stress on the fiscal position. Simonis Storm says the country’s fiscal buffer has narrowed significantly, with borrowing increasingly reliant on rollover mechanisms. Going forward, Simonis Storm advises that Namibia anchor investor confidence and restore debt sustainability by reducing the fiscal deficit to between 3% and 3.5% of GDP by the 2026/27 financial year. “To secure investor confidence and anchor debt sustainability, we believe Namibia through better revenue mobilisation and controlled non-productive spending, accelerate capital budget execution; link borrowing more directly to growth, diversify the funding base, modernise the tax framework, and mitigate contingent risks,” Jansen says.
