Germany's Public Debt Projected to Rise to 78.25% of GDP by 2030

Germany's public debt-to-GDP ratio is projected to climb from 62.8% in 2025 to 78.25% by 2030, a significant increase that signals a structural shift in fiscal policy. The rise reflects higher spending commitments and potential economic headwinds, though the underlying drivers are not detailed. This trajectory could pressure German bond yields and complicate EU fiscal rules, with implications for eurozone fiscal credibility.
