Comparison of the gross debt per capita with the European Union in Euro
Hungary European UnionBudget deficit in Hungary
The budget deficit of a country is the result of all its claims and liabilities. This includes incomes and expenses, repayments and building of new debts in other countries, but also domestic positions of the government, such as social insurances, local authorities and communities. It is the financial balance of the economic accounts. In simple terms: If a country at the end of the year has more money, than at at the beginning, it is a surplus - it is less, it is called deficit.
The budget deficit in Hungary in the period between 1998 and 2018 varied between 1.53 billion Euro and 8.51 billion Euro. In 2018 was reached a balance of -3 billion Euro.
In ratio to population, this equals a new indebtedness of 300 Euro per capita in Hungary only in 2018. For comparison, the average debt per capita in the European Union was in the same year at 222 Euro.
