Mumbai, Jan. 14 -- World Bank has stated in a latest update that sovereign bond yield curves in advanced economies steepened, as the rise in term premia pushed long-term yields higher in second half of 2025. Market participants remain concerned about the ability of these economies to rein in their public finances, and higher borrowing costs have put further pressure on government debt levels. In the United States, policy rate cuts due to the softening labor market added to the easing of financial conditions and pushed the yield curve lower, impacting short-term yields and, to a lesser extent, longer-term yields.
