IMF warns sovereign-debt, bond-market stresses remain elevated globally
IMF says sovereign-bond markets are under strain, rising yields and high valuations pose stability risks globally.
The International Monetary Fund’s latest report highlights that global financial-stability risks remain elevated amid stretched asset valuations, pressure in sovereign bond markets, and increased interconnectedness of banks and non-bank financial institutions. According to the update, an abrupt repricing of risk assets or surge in bond yields could strain financial systems, especially in emerging markets with high external debt exposures. The report urges policymakers to rebuild buffers, improve transparency and strengthen financial-market resilience.
