### US Government Debt Market Overview US Treasury securities, issued by the US Department of the Treasury, are considered among the most reliable and liquid instruments in the global financial market. On Friday, the yield on 10-year US Treasury notes (US 10y) is trading around 5.1%. The yield on US government debt varies depending on the maturity period: 1-2 year bills, 10-year and 30-year bonds. By the end of 2026, the US government debt amounted to approximately $40 trillion. It consists of two components: internal debt (owed to government agencies, such as pension funds) and public debt (liabilities in the form of securities). The debt-to-GDP ratio stands at nearly 125%. It is worth noting that the US budget has consistently run a deficit, so the debt is likely to continue growing. The Congressional Budget Office forecasts that by 2047, the US government debt will exceed 200% of GDP. This overview was presented by Alexey Grishchenko, Doctor of Economics, Professor at the Department of Operational and Sectoral Management at the Faculty of "Higher School of Management" of the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation.
