Key figures

What the numbers say

In 2025, Lithuania's GDP deflator (base year varies by country) rose 3.6% on 2024 (from 138.89 to 143.94).

This year's change was 0.2 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 942.3% in 1992 and the biggest yearly fall was 3.1% in 2009. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
