The public-sector borrowing
requirement rose 5.4 billion euros to 53.2 billion euros in
2017, the economy ministry said Tuesday. The ministry said the
result was affected by a good tax take and a sale of frequencies
on the upside and, on the downside, by the 10.2-billion-euro
effect of bank and savers' bailouts over the year.
Debt-servicing costs fell over 1.4 billion, it said.
