As a neutral state, Denmark-Norway enjoyed an upturn in trade during the American Revolutionary War. In domestic politics he successfully followed nationalist policies, making him popular among many commoners. The Act of Citizenship of that excluded foreigners from public posts of the monarchy was especially popular.

Guldberg also supported gifted Danish poets and authors, including Jörgen Zoega (–). Being an outspoken Danish nationalist, doubtless he also used this as a propaganda asset. A severe weakening of his rule was linked to his financial mismanagement and growing corruption. He showed no understanding of the plight of the peasants, and he abolished most of the reforms of Struensee.

Though a provincial himself, Guldberg totally favoured the capital at the expense of the provinces. The deaths and removals of some of his government colleagues including Heinrich Carl von Schimmelmann (–) and Andreas Peter Bernstorff (–) enlarged his field of activity, but also made him more vulnerable to critics.^[3][4][5]

An economic downturn after the end of the American Revolutionary War undermined his popularity, but more importantly like his royal employers Queen Dowager Juliana Maria and Frederick, Hereditary Prince of Denmark, he had fallen badly out with the Crown Prince (afterwards Frederick VI) whose growing opposition he seems to have ignored.

In April , just as he had been appointed a minister, he was forced to resign following the Crown Prince's coup d'état.
