Remaining Debt Issues in Tunisia
Tunisia successfully made its largest external debt payment due in July 2026, amounting to 827 million dollars, marking an important step in reducing its external financial obligations. Despite this achievement, the debate continues over whether Tunisia has overcome its debt crisis or if it has merely restructured its debt. Data shows that Tunisia has consistently met its debt repayment deadlines since independence, even though negotiations with the International Monetary Fund have stalled. Changes in the financing structure, such as a greater reliance on domestic funding, have reduced the risks associated with external debt. However, they have also increased pressure on local banks and affected the financial market, as the country continues to depend on regional financing sources and signs agreements to obtain new loans. This situation highlights the need for structural reforms to promote economic growth and reduce dependence on debt.
