In 2023, the public debt that Brazil's central government owed to foreign creditors equaled 8.8 percent of the country's gross domestic product (GDP). The volume of external debt in relation to GDP more than doubled in comparison to 2017, when it stood at only 3.5 percent. Still, Brazil is one of the Latin American countries with the lowest share of external debt based on GDP.
