In the 2nd quarter of 2010, the financial balance of the general government amounted to 42 billion ISK in deficit or 8% of quarterly GDP and 18,6% of general government total revenue.

This improvement between the quarters can be explained by a large increase in tax revenue and a drastic decrease in the investment expenditure, or by one third.
