What the numbers say
In 2024, Albania's GNI per capita (constant 2015 US$) rose US$438.78 on 2023 (from US$6,378 to US$6,817).
Across the 28 yearly changes before that (1996 to 2023), the average change was +US$173.69 and a typical year strayed about US$152.89 from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 1.7 standard deviations above that average, so it was larger than a typical year, though not out of the range seen before.
On record, the biggest yearly rise was US$546.58 in 2021 and the biggest yearly fall was US$195.79 in 1997. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2015 to 2024 the straight-line trend is upward, about US$264.13 a year. A straight line explains 92% of the movement over 10 observed years.

A straight-line projection, tested first
Extending that straight line gives about US$7,162 for 2027. We show this only because the same method, fitted on earlier years, predicted 2022 to 2024 better than "no change" would have: its average miss was US$641.36, against US$903.73 for assuming no change. Treat it as a continuation of the recent pattern, not a forecast of events: it cannot see a recession, a policy change or a revision to the data.

What this measures

The core indicator has been divided by the general population to achieve a per capita estimate.This indicator is expressed in constant prices, meaning the series has been adjusted to account for price changes over time. The reference year for this adjustment is 2015. This indicator is expressed in United States dollars.
Regional and income-group figures are computed by the World Bank as a weighted average.
