Regno Unito Valore Bilancio Pubblico

Public sector net borrowing (excluding public sector banks) in the UK widened sharply to £20.7 billion in June 2025, up from £14.1 billion in the same month a year earlier, and exceeding market forecasts of £15.6 billion. This marked the highest level of borrowing since April 2021, as high inflation drove up the government’s debt servicing costs. Total public sector spending increased by £12.7 billion, largely due to a substantial £8.4 billion increase in debt interest payments. Meanwhile, total receipts rose by £6.1 billion, supported by a £2.3 billion increase in central government tax receipts and a £3.1 billion rise in compulsory social contributions. Borrowing for the financial year to June reached £57.8 billion—£7.5 billion higher than the same three-month period in 2024—making it the third-highest April–June borrowing on record, after 2020 and 2021. Lastly, public sector net debt excluding public sector banks was estimated at 96.3% of GDP at the end of June.
