Spanish ten-year government bond yields rose above 6 per cent on Monday for the first time since the beginning of December, leading analysts to warn that Madrid could fail to meet deficit targets as the country acknowledged it has probably tipped into its second recession since 2009.

Data Explorers found that in terms of non-cash collaterised securities lending transactions, Spain’s government bonds are the fourth most expensive to borrow amongst major European economies. This puts them behind Portugal, Ireland and Greece, and in front of Norway, France, and the Netherlands.
