What the numbers say
In 2024, Myanmar's PNG, commercial banks and other creditors (NFL, current US$) fell US$45.45 million on 2023 (from US$77.5 million to US$32.05 million).

This year's change was 0.6 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 US$107.42 million in 2021 and the biggest yearly fall was US$134.95 million in 2023. 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 23% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.
