This includes debt in the form of SDRs, currency and deposits, debt securities, loans, insurance, pensions, standardized guarantee schemes, and other accounts payable. In the GFSM 2001 framework, all liabilities are considered debt, except for equity, investment fund shares, financial derivatives, and employee stock options. Debt can be valued at current market value, nominal value, or face value (GFSM 2001, paragraph 7.110).
