Comparison of the gross debt per capita with the European Union in Euro
Budget deficit in Poland
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 Poland in the period between 1998 and 2016 was from 3.64 billion Euro to 26.56 billion Euro. In 2016 was reached a balance of -10.25 billion Euro.
In ratio to population, this equals a new indebtedness of 270 Euro pro capita in Poland only in 2016. For comparison, the average debt per capita in the European Union was in the same year at 490 Euro.
