Supplementary notes

The risk premium (also, country risk) is the price premium that investors demand for buying public debt in one country versus another country, whose price is used as the basis for being considered as more secure debt. In the case of Spain and the rest of the countries of the European Union, the German bond is taken as reference. Thus, the risk premium is calculated by subtracting the interest paid on the secondary markets for Spanish ten-year bonds with the interest payable on German bonds.
