[HIGHLIGHTS] The cost of debt to governments has 'skyrocketed'

Interest paid by states "skyrocketed" in 2022 compared to 2021, the fastest increase since 1984. In France, the jump in the debt burden is even 43%.

This explosion in costs – $ 1.380 trillion in total in 2022 – is due in particular to the policy of central banks. Governments are therefore "with their backs to the wall", according to Janus Henderson, who predicts that these costs "will double over the next three years" The U.S. Treasury alone borrowed more than any other country combined last year.
