The Mergent Municipal Bond Securities database provides information on U.S. domestic municipal bonds beginning in 1996. It covers municipal issues from all 50 states including bonds issued by states, counties, and cities as well as other municipal entities such as hospitals, community colleges, schools, water districts, and other similar entities. The data provides information about the bond issue and the individual bonds within each bond issue, including the underwriter, bond yield, offering price, offering date, maturity, and other bond characteristics (e.g., taxable, security, use of proceeds, sale type, refunding). It also includes information on credit ratings at issuance and throughout the life of the bond from S&P, Moody’s, and Fitch. Information is provided at the bond issue level (issue_id) and at the bond level using the maturity_id. Each bond has a maturity_id and issue_id that allows for matching across tables within the Mergent dataset. The full 9-digit CUSIP for each bond is also provided. There is some coverage for geographic areas outside of the 50 states (e.g., Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands). It also includes some bonds issued prior to 1996, and some debt instruments other than public bonds (e.g., collateralized notes, certificates of obligation, construction loan notes). However, the extent of coverage for these additional geographic areas, offering dates, and debt instruments is unknown, suggesting that researchers exercise caution before using these data. Data is current to May 5, 2023.

New York City Annual Debt Service Expense from FY2000 – FY2020 Dollars in millions SOURCES: IBO; Mayor's Office of Management and Budget (OMB); New York City Comprehensive Annual Financial Report of the Comptroller (various years); Annual Report of the Comptroller on Capital Debt and Obligations (various years); New York City Municipal Water Finance Authority Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (various years). NOTES: (1) Debt service is the cost to New York City of repaying its outstanding debt, including both principal and interest. The figures in the table have been adjusted to reflect debt service that was originally scheduled for payment in each year since 2000. (2) New York City is required to have a balanced annual budget. In years when it runs a surplus, the primary means the city uses to comply with this requirement is to use up some or all of the surplus by prepaying some of the subsequent years' debt service expenses. As a result, the cash outlay for debt service in a given year is not an accurate representation of the true cost of debt service in that year. (3) The defeasance of $536 million of GO bonds in 2007 reduced debt service in 2008, 2009, and 2010. Debt service in the table is presented as if the defeasance had not occurred.

(7) The defeasance of $637 million of TFA bonds in 2015 with savings from Sales Tax Asset Receivable Corporation (STAR) reduced debt service in 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018. Debt service in the table is presented as if the defeasance had not occurred.
