About this work

Bloomberg Línea reports that Bolivia, Brazil and Suriname rank among the 30 most indebted economies in the world, based on IMF data compiled by the IIF.

He argued Bolivia faces a payments problem rather than a debt problem, and flagged Ecuador as looking comfortable at 52.8% of GDP when it is not.
