Notes:               Gross debt consists of all liabilities that require payment or
                     payments of interest and/or principal by the debtor to the creditor at
                     a date or dates in the future. This includes debt liabilities in the
                     form of Special Drawing Rights (SDRs), currency and deposits, debt
                     securities, loans, insurance, pensions and standardized guarantee
                     schemes, and other accounts payable. Thus, all liabilities in the
                     Government Finance Statistics Manual 2001 (GFSM 2001) system are debt,
                     except for equity and investment fund shares and financial derivatives
                     and employee stock options. Debt can be valued at current market,
                     nominal, or face values (GFSM 2001, paragraph 7.110). A projection of
                     this data can be found at
