KBRA analyzes trends in creditor finance to EM sovereigns from 1990-2024 using World Bank long-term external public debt data across four regions\u2014Africa, Asia, Europe, and Latin America\u2014based on a sample of countries.<\/p><p>\n<strong>Key Takeaways<\/strong><\/p><ul class=\"bwlistsquare\">\n<li>\nThe share of multilateral debt has remained broadly stable over time, largely due to multilateral development banks\u2019 (MDB) countercyclical role.<\/li>\n<li>\nThe share of bilateral debt has declined, supplanted by the growth in bond market financing. However, Chinese bilateral lending surged in the 2000s, with a large share may not be captured by official statistics.<\/li>\n<li>\nBond-based debt has increased due to improved EM fundamentals and greater financial globalization.<\/li>\n<li>\nRegional trends differ materially, with Latin America showing the strongest shift toward bond-based financing, while Europe stands out for the continued importance of MDB debt, as well as the expansion of those institutions.<\/li>\n<\/ul><p>\nClick <a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.kbra.com%2Fpublications%2FxhdftbmS&amp;esheet=54546936&amp;newsitemid=20260603303501&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=here&amp;index=1&amp;md5=bdad3a118f694e3c5afd4e1f29304fec\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">here<\/a> to view the report.<\/p><p>\n<strong>Related Publications<\/strong><\/p><ul class=\"bwlistsquare\">\n<li>\n<a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.kbra.com%2Fpublications%2FVrhPPXcc%2Fsovereigns-global-debt-update&amp;esheet=54546936&amp;newsitemid=20260603303501&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Sovereigns%3A+Global+Debt+Update&amp;index=2&amp;md5=a25a7ede810b03cd6ecb025e2826838a\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">Sovereigns: Global Debt Update<\/a><\/li>\n<li>\n<a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.kbra.com%2Fpublications%2FGfQRQzgk%2Fsovereigns-sovereign-liquidity-is-king&amp;esheet=54546936&amp;newsitemid=20260603303501&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Sovereigns%3A+Sovereign+Liquidity+is+King&amp;index=3&amp;md5=9238fb25de8aae94d8dbcc39ebaf2571\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">Sovereigns: Sovereign Liquidity is King<\/a><\/li>\n<li>\n<a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.kbra.com%2Fpublications%2FdrYzgJVB%2Fchinas-balance-sheet-risks-assets&amp;esheet=54546936&amp;newsitemid=20260603303501&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=China%27s+Balance+Sheet+Risks%3A+Assets&amp;index=4&amp;md5=53a1715f45a1fc9353741ca59bc438e7\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">China's Balance Sheet Risks: Assets<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul><p>\n<strong>About KBRA<\/strong><\/p><p>\nKBRA, one of the major credit rating agencies, is registered in the U.S., EU, and the UK.
