Notes: General Government (GG) data refers to the non-financial public sector, which includes the federal, state and local governments as well as public enterprises (excluding Petrobras and Eletrobras), and is consolidated with the Sovereign Wealth Fund (SWF).

In 2015, interest income is negative to account for Central Bank losses with swap operations.

Source: National Statistics Office. Data takes into account statistical revisions (including on student loans accounting) implemented on September 24, 2019, and revisions to historical data released on December 22, 2020.
Latest actual data: 2020
Fiscal assumptions: Fiscal projections are based on the latest GDP data published by the Office of National Statistics on 12 February 2021 and forecasts by the Office for Budget Responsibility from 23 November 2020. Revenue projections are adjusted for differences between IMF staff forecasts of macroeconomic variables (such as GDP growth and inflation) and the forecasts of these variables assumed in the authorities' fiscal projections. Projections assume that the measures taken in response to the Coronavirus outbreak expire as announced. It is also assumed there is some additional fiscal consolidation relative to the policies announced to date starting in fiscal year 2023-24 with the goal of stabilizing public debt within five years. IMF staff data exclude public sector banks and the effect of transferring assets from the Royal Mail Pension Plan to the public sector in April 2012. Real government consumption and investment are part of the real GDP path, which, according to the IMF staff, may or may not be the same as projected by the U.K. Office for Budget Responsibility. Data are presented on a calendar year basis.

Latest actual data: 2019. Repatriation tax on foreign earnings (a provision of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act), estimated at $250 billion, which accrued at end-2017 and recorded as capital transfer to the government in the GFS, was removed from government revenue. Staff's baseline projection embeds the impact of this tax provision over time to reflect the fact that corporations have eight years to pay off this tax liability.
Notes: Revenue, expenditure, and net lending data are is compiled using SNA 2008, and when translated into GFS this is in accordance with GFSM 2014. Due to data limitations, most series begin 2001.
Fiscal assumptions: Fiscal projections are based on the September 2020 Congressional Budget Office baseline adjusted for the IMF staff’s policy and macroeconomic assumptions. Projections then incorporate the effects of the American Rescue Plan, Coronavirus Preparedness and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act, the Families First Coronavirus Response Act, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act. Finally, fiscal projections are adjusted to reflect the IMF staff’s forecasts for key macroeconomic and financial variables and different accounting treatment of financial sector support and of defined-benefit pension plans and are converted to a general government basis. Data is compiled using SNA 2008, and when translated into GFS this is in accordance with GFSM 2014. Due to data limitations, most series begin 2001.

Notes: Starting from October 2018, the public pension system has been receiving transfers in the context of a new law that compensates persons affected by the creation of the mixed pension system. These funds are recorded as revenues, consistent with IMF’s methodology. Therefore, data and projections for 2018 – 2021 are affected by these transfers, which amounted to 1.2 percent of GDP in 2018 and 1.1 percent of GDP in 2019, and are projected to be 0.6 percent of GDP in 2020, 0.2 percent of GDP in 2021 and zero percent thereafter. Please see IMF country report No. 19/64 for further details. The disclaimer about the public pension system applies only for the revenues and net lending/borrowing series.

General government includes: Central Government; Local Government; Social Security Funds; Nonmonetary Financial Public Corporations; Nonfinancial Public Corporation;. The coverage of the fiscal data was changed from consolidated public sector to nonfinancial public sector (NFPS) with the October 2019 submission. In Uruguay, NFPS coverage includes Central Government, Local Government, Social Security Funds, Nonfinancial Public Corporations, and Banco de Seguros del Estado. Historical data was revised accordingly. Under this narrower fiscal perimeter assets and liabilities held by the NFPS where the counterpart is the central bank are not netted out in debt figures. In this context, capitalization bonds issued in the past by the government to the central bank are now part of the NFPS debt. Gross and net debt estimates for the period 2008-2011 are preliminary.
