摘要

The $59 billion debt deferral by the profligate city-state ofDubai late last month sent shock waves through global markets. Though they've since settled, investors are now attuned to the danger of more highly indebted countries veering toward bankruptcy. The likeliest suspects are the economies on Europe's periphery. Bulgaria, Hungary, and the Baltic states face staggering foreign debts in excess of their GDP, and their government balance sheets are filled withred flags such as short-term loans. The cost of insuring against the bankruptcy of these countries has shot up several-fold since last year, with Latvia's rate approaching that of Dubai's. Meanwhile, previously stalwart economies such as Greece and Ireland are doing little better. Greece needs to borrow $70 billion in the next year, a possibly insurmountable task given its 12.7 percent budget deficit (the highest in the euro zone). Ireland, with foreign debts now totaling more than 800 percent of GDP, is in even worse shape. A few short months ago these countries were riding high, as investors hoped to make a quick buck off the rebound. But while previous waves of the credit crisis crashed on the real-estate and banking sectors, the final victims may be governments themselves.
