About this work
Large pandemic deficits were set to keep government funding requirements elevated even as emerging economies recovered. Jonathan Fortun and Sergi Lanau develop a framework to monitor those needs and the currency composition of debt service. Their February 2021 assessment identifies Brazil and South Africa as facing the highest public financing requirements that year.
