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.

In Guyana, the combined government deficit reading was −4.94% of GDP in 2025, compared with −7.31% of GDP in 2024. The period change was +2.37 percentage points. The latest reading was below the selected 10-year average of −4.93% of GDP.
