What the numbers say
In 2025, Chile's market capitalization of listed domestic companies (% of GDP) rose 56.62 percentage points on 2024 (from 79.58% to 136.2%).
Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1995 to 2024), the average change was −1.3 percentage points and a typical year strayed about 23.03 percentage points from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 2.5 standard deviations above that average, so it was unusually large compared with the rest of the record.
On record, the biggest yearly rise was 61.05 percentage points in 2009 and the biggest yearly fall was 50.16 percentage points in 2008. 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 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains 11% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.

What this measures
Market capitalization (also known as market value) is the share price times the number of shares outstanding (including their several classes) for listed domestic companies. Investment funds, unit trusts, and companies whose only business goal is to hold shares of other listed companies are excluded. Data are end of year values.
Limitations: Data cover measures of size (market capitalization, number of listed domestic companies) and liquidity (value of shares traded as a percentage of gross domestic product, value of shares traded as a percentage of market capitalization). The comparability of such data across countries may be limited by conceptual and statistical weaknesses, such as inaccurate reporting and differences in accounting standards.
Regional and income-group figures are computed by the World Bank as a weighted average.
