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.

Hungary's combined government deficit reading was −4.7% of GDP in 2025. The period change from −5.1% of GDP in 2024 was +0.4 percentage points.
