Cambodia: Gross savings (current US$)

Key figures

What the numbers say

In 2025, Cambodia's gross savings (current US$) rose US$1.25 billion on 2024 (from US$18.79 billion to US$20.04 billion).

Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1995 to 2024), the average change was +US$622.06 million and a typical year strayed about US$808 million from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.8 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 US$3.35 billion in 2019 and the biggest yearly fall was US$165.64 million in 2009. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.

From 2016 to 2025 the straight-line trend is upward, about US$1.55 billion a year. A straight line explains 99% of the movement over 10 observed years.

A straight-line projection, tested first

Extending that straight line gives about US$24 billion for 2028. We show this only because the same method, fitted on earlier years, predicted 2023 to 2025 better than "no change" would have: its average miss was US$1.44 billion, against US$3.11 billion 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

Savings is an amount that represents the part of disposable income (adjusted for the change in pension entitlements) that is not spent on final consumption. Gross savings are calculated as gross national income less total consumption, plus net transfers. This indicator is expressed in current prices, meaning no adjustment has been made to account for price changes over time. This indicator is expressed in United States dollars.
