1 Tax effort is computed using tax revenue data as percent to nominal Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
2 The data on percent to GDP is based on the Department of Economic Statistics staff calculations using the latest nominal GDP released by the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) on 8 August 2024.
3 Based on the concept of the Government Finance Statistics Manual 2014 wherein reporting of debt amortization reflects the actual 
principal repayments to creditor including those serviced by the Bond Sinking Fund; while financing includes gross proceeds of  
liability management transactions such as bond exchange.
