BoC–BoE Sovereign Default Database: Methodology, Assumptions and Sources

David Beers, Elliot Jones and John Walsh

No 117, Technical Reports from Bank of Canada

Abstract: Until recently, few efforts have been made to systematically measure and aggregate the nominal value of the different types of sovereign government debt in default. To help fill this gap, the Bank of Canada (BoC) developed a comprehensive database of sovereign defaults that is posted on its website and updated in partnership with the Bank of England (BoE).
