Today, Banco de Portugal publishes statistics, in Table A.15 of the Statistical Bulletin and in BPstat, on public debt for January 2020.
In January 2020 public debt stood at €252.1 billion (Chart 1), a €2.3 billion increase from the end of 2019. This was mainly driven by an increase in debt securities, partially offset by a decrease in Treasury certificates (Chart 2).
