Notes: Debt and the primary balance ratio are labelled d and pb, respectively. Nominal cyclically adjusted figures are labelled “nca”. α corresponds to the speed of debt adjustment.

(1) Primary balances in 2022 are shown in cyclically-adjusted terms.

(2) Interest-growth differentials are shown in percent.
