On record, the biggest yearly rise was 13.39 percentage points in 1993 and the biggest yearly fall was 9.87 percentage points in 1994. 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 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains 29% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.
