DEBTOR NATION: A nation that owes more to foreign governments, businesses, and consumers than foreigners owe to domestic governments, businesses, and consumers.

See also | foreign | domestic | creditor nation | export | import | current account | balance of payments | capital account |  Recommended Citation:DEBTOR NATION, AmosWEB GLOSS*arama, http://www.AmosWEB.com, AmosWEB LLC, 2000-2025.
