The growth of total public debt to GDP ratio was driven mostly by depreciation of Georgian Lari. According the preliminary data, in 2016 both public debt and external public debt have increased to 44.6% of GDP and 35.2% of GDP respectively. Based on the IMF Debt Sustainability Analysis the public debt ratio would remain sustainable under the most standard shocks. Average Weighted Interest Rate (AWIR) on External Public Debt is around 2%. The bulk of External Public Debt portfolio is owed to official multilateral and bilateral development partners, mainly on concessional terms 70% of the external public debt portfolio carries fixed interest rate. This keeps Georgia s external public debt service parameters to a large extent shielded from exogenous interest (base) rate fluctuations and ensures that external public debt service costs remain low and affordable despite global economic uncertainties. No refinancing risk exists in the foreseeable future External Public Debt Currency Composition as for June, 2017 EUR 19% USD 34% Other 5% SDR 42% 11
