The Institute of International Finance (IIF) reported that global debt reached a record USD353 trillion by the end of March, driven by US government borrowing. While demand for US Treasuries remains stable, there are signs of reduced reliance on them, with increased interest in Japanese and European bonds. The US corporate bond market is buoyant, supported by AI-related issuance and strong overseas capital inflows. Additionally, China's non-financial corporate debt surged in Q1 2026, outpacing government growth, while emerging market debt, excluding China, hit a record USD36.8 trillion.
