What the numbers say
In 2024, Fiji's external debt stocks, private nonguaranteed (PNG) (DOD, current US$) rose 22.4% on 2023 (from US$742.76 million to US$909.1 million).
Across the 15 yearly changes before that (2009 to 2023), the average change was +10.9% and a typical year strayed about 31.2% from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.4 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 87.9% in 2009 and the biggest yearly fall was 49.2% in 2011. 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$65.77 million a year. A straight line explains 89% of the movement over 10 observed years.

A straight-line projection, tested first
Extending that straight line gives about US$1.04 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 US$56.22 million, against US$99.44 million 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.
