GFS course ch. 14.4 EDP TABLE 4 2. Amount outstanding in the government debt from the financing of public undertakings In this case the government itself is liable for the debt Some governments (an example is Denmark) prefer to borrow on behalf of public enterprises (thereby inflating total government debt), while other governments let public enterprises contract liabilities themselves (thereby not affecting government debt). This information is requested because in some cases government debt depends on the institutional arrangements. In some countries with many and large quasi-corporations (whose accounts are integrated with those of the budget), public borrowing on behalf of public enterprises is greater. Information on the level of government debt contracted by the government on behalf of public enterprises is, therefore, considered useful from an analytical view point. GFS course 2014: chapter 12.4

GFS course ch. 14.4 EDP TABLE 4 2. Amount outstanding in the government debt from the financing of public undertakings This should not be confused with the case of government-guaranteed debt: as a general rule, government-guaranteed debt is a contingent liability of government (as long as the guarantee is not called) ¹ the debt being recorded in the sector to which the public entity belongs (often the non-financial corporations sector). There may however be exceptions to this rule on treatment of government-guaranteed debt; see ESA 95 MGDD — Part II.4.3. GFS course 2014: chapter 12.4
