What the numbers say
In 2025, Kenya's financial Intermediary Services Indirectly Measured (FISIM) (current LCU) rose 4.6% on 2024 (from 327.65 billion to 342.6 billion).
Across the 18 yearly changes before that (2007 to 2024), the average change was +15% and a typical year strayed about 15.6% from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.7 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 55.1% in 2009 and the biggest yearly fall was 10.8% in 2018. 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 12.17 billion a year. A straight line explains 60% of the movement over 10 observed years.
