Key figures

What the numbers say

In 2025, Israel's gross national expenditure deflator (base year varies by country) rose 1.9% on 2024 (from 118.21 to 120.4).

This year's change was 0.4 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 394.9% in 1984 and the biggest yearly fall was 0.5% in 2016. 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 2.78 a year. A straight line explains 88% of the movement over 10 observed years.
