BlockBeats reported on Sept. 13 that the United States currently has about $7 trillion in short-term Treasuries outstanding, with roughly $6.1 trillion set to mature within one year. Including other maturing issues, around $7.5 trillion in marketable U.S. Treasuries is due for refinancing in 2026, followed by about $4 trillion in 2027 and $3.5 trillion in 2028. According to the data cited, if the Federal Reserve raises rates by another 75 basis points, annual interest costs on short-term Treasuries alone could increase by about $50 billion, or around 0.15% of GDP. The report added that most of these securities would likely be rolled over at market rates higher than those in place when they were originally issued, pointing to a more expensive wave of large-scale refinancing for the U.S.
