What the numbers say
In 2024, Kazakhstan's multilateral debt service (% of public and publicly guaranteed debt service) rose 9.83 percentage points on 2023 (from 20.67% to 30.5%).

This year's change was 0.6 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 47.55 percentage points in 2005 and the biggest yearly fall was 25.73 percentage points in 2014. 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 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains 10% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.
