-- 加拿大帝国商业银行(CIBC)在周二公布财政数据后表示,由于财政收入增加,以及支出有所改善,加拿大联邦政府目前预计上一财年的赤字将有所减少,同时本财年的税收基数也将有所提高。 然而,该银行指出,近期宣布的新支出计划旨在支持“依然疲软”的经济,加上周二公布的其他一些措施,意味着支出也将增加。因此,与2025年预算相比,2026/27财年及以后的赤字预测变化不大。 目前预计2025/26财年的赤字为669亿加元,比去年预算的预期减少了115亿加元。财政收入,尤其是所得税收入,增加了70亿加元,而直接项目支出则减少了140亿加元。 然而,加拿大帝国商业银行(CIBC)指出,由于与员工福利相关的67亿加元支出被重新归类为精算净亏损,因此并未对整体预算赤字产生影响,这一支出数字在一定程度上被夸大了。 尽管起点有所改善,但自去年预算以来宣布的新措施(这些措施在周二的更新中首次纳入考量)意味着,2026/27财年的预计赤字与2025年预算相比几乎没有变化。该银行表示,赤字为653亿加元,略低于名义国内生产总值的2%,仅比上一年略低。 该银行还指出,长期预测也显示,赤字将与之前的预测接近,因为更高的收入基数继续被周二以及前几周/几个月宣布的一些措施所抵消。 2028/29财年,债务占GDP的比率将从41.1%上升至41.9%的峰值,尽管这一峰值较2025年预算案预测值低近1.5个百分点,这主要是由于名义GDP的向上修正。 加拿大帝国商业银行(CIBC)补充道,预算预测基于对近期经济增长乏力的预期,但预计2027年及以后将有所改善。今年的实际GDP增长预测为1.1%,2027年为1.9%,与2025年预算案相比变化不大。但由于近期油价上涨,名义GDP的预测值有所提高(2026年为4.0%,此前为3.0%)。 尽管2026/27财年的预算赤字与2025年预算案相比变化不大,但由于去年的赤字较小,本年度的融资需求略低于最初的预期。据加拿大帝国商业银行 (CIBC) 称,债券发行量预计仍将维持在 2980 亿美元,借款变化需要通过减少国库券发行量来弥补。

Market Chatter: Peru's State-Owned Oil Company Warns Fuel Output at Risk Without $2.5 Billion in Financing
Petroperu, Peru's state-owned oil company, requires about $2.5 billion in loans to keep its refineries running and to avoid disruption to fuel supplies, Chairman Roger Arevalo told a congressional committee on Tuesday, according to Reuters.Arevalo warned that fuel shortages could emerge "in the coming days" if the company fails to secure private financing backed by government guarantees to continue crude purchases for its refineries, as its debt burden balloons to $7.9 billion.According to Arevalo, private banks are ready to lend $2.0 billion, which is short of their $2.5 billion requirement. However, the government is planning an emergency decree for a state guarantee to help the company with its private financing, without any direct funding.The company's two major refineries, Talara and Conchan, are currently operating below their respective capacities due to insufficient funds to purchase raw materials.Over the past three years alone, the company has received $5.3 billion in state support, but delays and cost overruns with the Talara modernization project, which ultimately exceeded over $6.0 billion, worsened Petroperu's balance sheet fundamentals.Petroperu did not immediately respond to' request for a comment on this story.(Market Chatter news is derived from conversations with market professionals globally.
