Liechtenstein: Adjusted savings, consumption of fixed capital (current US$)

Key figures

What the numbers say

In 2020, Liechtenstein's adjusted savings, consumption of fixed capital (current US$) rose 0% on 2019 (from US$932.18 million to US$932.45 million).

Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1990 to 2019), the average change was +6.8% and a typical year strayed about 10.4% 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 49.2% in 1986 and the biggest yearly fall was 11.1% in 2000. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.

From 2011 to 2020 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains 1% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.

Worked out from the yearly values above. How the checks work: standard deviation, z-scores and straight-line trends.
