About This Statistic

Claims on central government include loans to central government institutions net of deposits. This indicator is expressed as a percentage of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) which is the total income earned through the production of goods and services in an economic territory during an accounting period.

MapTheory uses only finite 2025 observations mapped to ISO 3166-1 numeric country codes. Aggregates, missing values and other years are excluded without estimation. Discovery motivation: Google Trends Germany surfaced Bank Sepah and worldwide X trends featured public-security institutions, motivating comparison of net financial-sector claims on central governments.
