Brunei Darussalam: Export volume index (2015 = 100)

Key figures

Over five years it is up 7.35% from 113 in 2019 (1.43% a year on average, compounded). Since 2005 it is up 52.77% from 79.4 in 2005 (2.26% a year on average, compounded).

What the numbers say

In 2024, Brunei Darussalam's export volume index (2015 = 100) rose 12.7 on 2023 (from 108.6 to 121.3).

Across the 18 yearly changes before that (2006 to 2023), the average change was +1.62 and a typical year strayed about 15.13 from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.7 standard deviations above that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.

On record, the biggest yearly rise was 30.4 in 2020 and the biggest yearly fall was 23.7 in 2022. 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 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains 27% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.

What this measures

Export volume indexes are derived from UNCTAD's volume index series and are the ratio of the export value indexes to the corresponding unit value indexes. Unit value indexes are based on data reported by countries that demonstrate consistency under UNCTAD quality controls, supplemented by UNCTAD's estimates using the previous year's trade values at the Standard International Trade Classification three-digit level as weights.
