The list has been released regarding which are the most indebted countries in the world in 2025.
The list of debtor countries is compiled by looking at a country’s total gross national debt and debt-to-GDP ratio.
Additionally, the debt of countries is viewed as public and in some cases gross government debt, or a combination of both. This is why the list may vary from institution to institution.
