美东时间2月25日，总部位于华盛顿的国际金融协会发布最新的《全球债务监测》报告。该报告通常在每个季度末或次季度初公布最新数据。 根据公开的报告摘要显示，全球债务规模在去年底攀升到创纪录的348万亿美元，增长了近29万亿美元。创下自2020年新冠疫情暴发初期以来最快增速，一 改以往由家庭或企业主导的结构。其中美国、欧元区等国家政府债务占10万亿美元以上。 国际金融协会特别指出了国家安全相关投资，以及人工智能等技术投入的驱动，并预计今年还将保持这一势头。 报告中写道，更宽松的金融环境将有助于为包括防务支出在内的政府优先事项筹集资金，由人工智能发展驱动的数据中心、能源安全和转型，以及气候韧性 基础设施大规模投资，正成为全球债务市场的重要增长引擎。 债务是一把双刃剑，既能提供杠杆效应、促进投资与消费，也存在财务风险，一旦失控则会引发金融海啸等危机。该协会警告，军费驱动的财政扩张，再叠 加更低利率与更宽松的金融监管将进一步推高债务。 国际货币基金组织在同一天发布声明，预计公众持有的联邦债务占美国GDP的比重将在2026年升至100.7%，并在2031年升至109.8%。公众持有债务占GDP 比重以及短期债务占GDP比重 ...
