What the numbers say
In 2024, Comoros' net domestic credit (current LCU) rose 6.8% on 2023 (from 147.2 billion to 157.23 billion).
Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1994 to 2023), the average change was +10.1% and a typical year strayed about 16.2% from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.2 standard deviations below 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 41.7% in 2008 and the biggest yearly fall was 30.7% in 1985. 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 9.69 billion a year. A straight line explains 89% of the movement over 10 observed years.
Worked out from the yearly values above. How the checks work: standard deviation, z-scores and straight-line trends.
A straight-line projection, tested first
Extending that straight line gives about 173.55 billion 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 28.81 billion, against 38.19 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.
