About this series
The combined government deficit series records the period's fiscal balance under the source's accounting and sign convention. A deficit indicates a shortfall; the series is a flow, not a debt stock. WED's combined-government scope requires source metadata. This series expresses that measure as a percentage of GDP for the matching period.
The latest combined government deficit reading for Switzerland was 0.78% of GDP in 2025. The previous reading was 0.5% of GDP in 2024; the period change was +0.28 percentage points. The latest reading was above the selected 10-year average of 0.26% of GDP.
