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 Democratic Republic of the Congo's combined government deficit reading was −2.75% of GDP in 2025. The period change from −1.66% of GDP in 2024 was −1.09 percentage points.
