Georgia: Grants, excluding technical cooperation (BoP, current US$)

Key figures

What the numbers say

In 2023, Georgia's grants, excluding technical cooperation (BoP, current US$) rose 27.5% on 2022 (from US$230.19 million to US$293.39 million).

Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1993 to 2022), the average change was +22.5% and a typical year strayed about 82.7% from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.1 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 11,376.5% in 1992 and the biggest yearly fall was 50.9% in 1995. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.

From 2014 to 2023 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains less than 1% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.

What this measures

Grants are transfers made in cash, goods or services for which no repayment is required. For ODA reporting purposes, they also include forgiveness of non-military debt, support to non-governmental organisations, certain interest subsidies, and certain costs incurred in the implementation of aid. Grants to multilateral agencies intended to soften the terms of the latter’s lending are a direct resource outflow and should also be recorded as ODA grants. For OOF reporting purposes, grants for commercial purposes such as subsidies to national private investors, and grants to forgive military debt, are also included. Grant-like flows are assimilated to grants. They comprise a) loans for which the service payments are to be made into an account in the borrowing country and used in the borrowing country for its own benefit, and b) provision of commodities for sale in the recipient’s currency the proceeds of which are used in the recipient country for its own benefit. Data are in current U.S. dollars.

Regional and income-group figures are computed by the World Bank as a sum.
