Global bond markets under pressure as yields climb beyond 20-year highs

Long-term G7 bond yields are rising amid inflation, geopolitical instability and uncertainty around central banks.

Long-term government bonds across major G7 economies are under serious pressure, with yields reaching levels not seen in more than 20 years.

The drivers include inflation expectations, political instability, Middle East tensions and uncertainty around trade relations.

Why it matters

Higher yields mean more expensive borrowing for governments, businesses and households.

That can slow investment, weaken growth and increase the cost of servicing debt.
