Sprache: Deutsch Broschur 4;; Band I (Analysis and Summary Tables) 250 Seiten + Band II. (Country Tables) 567 Seiten; Bibliotheksstempel auf Rückseite Haupttitel, sonst wohlerhalten; Tabellen, Diagramme - World Debt Tables 1996 consists of two volumes. Volume 1 contains analysis and commentary on recent and prospective developments in international finance for developing countries, together with summary statistical tables for selected regional and analytical groups comprising 151 developing countries. Volume 2 contains statistical tables on the external debt and flows of the 136 countries that report public and publicly guaranteed debt under the Debtor Reporting System (DRS). Portugal is now classified as a high-income country. For the convenience of readers, charts on pages xi to xiii summarize graphically the relation between the debt stock and its components; the computation of net flows, aggregate net resource flows, and aggregate net transfers; and the relation between net resource flows and the balance of payments. Exact definitions of these and other terms used in the World Debt Tables are found in the Sources and Definitions section. The economic aggregates presented in the tables are prepared for the convenience of users; their inclusion is not an endorsement of their value for economic analysis. Although debt indicators can give useful information about developments in debt-servicing capacity, conclusions drawn from them will not be valid unless accompanied by careful economic evaluation. The macroeconomic information provided is from standard sources, but many series, especially for African countries, are incomplete; thus it may be convenient or necessary to substitute other data series for those used here. - - -.
