The Dominican Republic's national debt totaled almost US$6 billion in six months

During the first six months of 2026, the Dominican Republic's national debt increased by nearly US$6 billion. The government secured these funds primarily through the domestic market to finance state operations.

Data indicates that the cost of this financing has experienced a slight increase during this period. The rise in debt reflects a continued upward trend in the state's borrowing requirements over the first half of the year.
