What the numbers say
In 2025, Romania's households and NPISHs final consumption expenditure (current LCU) rose 8.1% on 2024 (from 1.1 trillion to 1.19 trillion).
Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1995 to 2024), the average change was +23.7% and a typical year strayed about 26.1% from that (the standard deviation). 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 237.5% in 1993 and the biggest yearly fall was 3.5% in 2013. 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 78.95 billion a year. A straight line explains 95% of the movement over 10 observed years.
