Budget surplus (+) or deficit (-) 2012 Country Ranks, Alphabetical
https://photius.com/rankings/economy/budget_surplus_or_deficit_2012_1.html
SOURCE: CIA World Factbook 2012


This entry records the difference between national government revenues and expenditures, expressed as a percent of GDP. A positive (+) number indicates that revenues exceeded expenditures (a budget surplus), while a negative (-) number indicates the reverse (a budget deficit). Normalizing the data, by dividing the budget balance by GDP, enables easy comparisons across countries and indicates whether a national government saves or borrows money. Countries with high budget deficits (relative to their GDPs) generally have more difficulty raising funds to finance expenditures, than those with lower deficits.
