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 Malaysia, the combined government deficit reading was −3.61% of GDP in 2025, compared with −3.95% of GDP in 2024. The period change was +0.35 percentage points. The latest reading was above the selected 10-year average of −3.67% of GDP.
