Countries with a #debtToGDPratio over 100% become #fragile because their debt exceeds their entire economic output, making it harder to service that debt without cutting essential services or raising #taxes.
#High debt can lead to higher borrowing costs, reduced investor confidence, and limited ability to respond to economic crises.
This fragility can trigger #recessions or even defaults.
