What Is Jamaica's Current Stock Of Debt?
Toward the finish of December 2016, Jamaica's aggregate supply of open obligation (current Government of Jamaica definition) remained at $2,150.0 billion, demonstrating a 3.9 for each penny increment of $81.3 billion over the $2,068.7 billion recorded at end-FY2015/16. As per the methodology delineated by the Government, the supply of obligation is relied upon to increment assist before the finish of March 2017 to $2,180.3 billion. Of the aggregate obligation stock, the outside obligation stock holds the most noteworthy segment, which remained at $1,315.7 billion at end-December 2016. The outer obligation stock kept on being the bigger segment of aggregate extraordinary obligation, and represented 61.2 for every penny, while local obligation of $834.3 billion represented 38.8 for each penny. The household and outside portfolios developed by 2.3 for every penny and 5.0 for every penny, individually.

A 1.0 for every penny deterioration of the Jamaica dollar vis-·-vis the US dollar would add $13.8 billion to the aggregate obligation stock, and a 1.0 for each penny uptick in both residential and outer financing costs would expand obligation benefit costs by $7.4 billion.
