Scraped the new WB DSSI data! This plot shows countries where large share of servicing in 2020 is due to bondholders vs China (or neither).
Here is another way to look at the data I scraped. China really stands out in terms of debt due this year (if we trust these estimates)!
Note the many important caveats to these estimates raised in response to the thread.
As a check, I also looked at which lenders have large a chunk of their total outstanding loans due in 2020. Among official lenders: 🇧🇷, 🇮🇳, 🇨🇳, 🇫🇷, 🇺🇸 >10%+, while 🇮🇹, 🇸🇦,🇯🇵, 🇻🇪 < 5%.
And this plot shows that China has a particularly large share of various debt totals in terms of debt service due to them in 2020. Their role in #DSSI 2020 is much larger (~30%) than their last loan stock total (~20%) would imply.
