Governments are the world's biggest borrowers. Issues of public debt are growing rapidly as budget deficits rise in America, the Eurozone, Japan, Britain, and many other developed countries and emerging market economies. In recognition of this, and in order to provide a unique overview of this rapidly changing field, the Directory of Government Debt Offices provides detailed listings and descriptions of government debt offices in 110 countries around the world. Entries cover all OECD countries and major emerging markets, with listed institutions managing over $19 trillion in marketable government debt, equivalent to more than 30% of world GNP.
