What the numbers say
In 2021, Sudan's adjusted net savings, excluding particulate emission damage (current US$) fell US$7.26 billion on 2020 (from US$5.1 billion to −US$2.16 billion).
Across the 9 yearly changes before that (2012 to 2020), the average change was +US$315.98 million and a typical year strayed about US$12.96 billion 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 US$13.88 billion in 2014 and the biggest yearly fall was US$31.54 billion in 2018. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2012 to 2021 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains 8% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.

What this measures
Adjusted net savings are equal to net national savings plus education expenditure and minus energy depletion, mineral depletion, net forest depletion, and carbon dioxide. This series excludes particulate emissions damage. This indicator is expressed in current prices, meaning no adjustment has been made to account for price changes over time. This indicator is expressed in United States dollars.
