UK Public Borrowing Narrows in March

UK public sector net borrowing (excluding public sector banks) narrowed to £12.6 billion in March 2026 from £14.0 billion in the same month last year, but remained above expectations of £10.4 billion. In the financial year ending March 2026, public sector net borrowing stood at £132.0 billion, £19.8 billion lower than in FYE March 2025 and £0.7 billion below the £132.7 billion forecast by the OBR, marking the lowest level in three years. Total public sector receipts increased to £1,230.8 billion, rising by £92.1 billion from a year earlier, supported by a £87.7 billion (9.1%) jump in tax revenues and National Insurance contributions. Meanwhile, public sector spending rose to £1,362.8 billion, up £72.2 billion, driven by higher costs for public services, benefits, and debt interest. Public sector net debt stood at 93.8% of GDP at the end of March, up 0.6 percentage points from the previous year.
