What the numbers say
In 2024, Syrian Arab Republic's debt service on external debt, public and publicly guaranteed (PPG) (TDS, current US$) did not change US$0 on 2023 (from US$0 to US$0).
Across the 11 yearly changes before that (2009 to 2023), the average change was −US$6 million and a typical year strayed about US$21.85 million from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.3 standard deviations above 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$19.46 million in 2018 and the biggest yearly fall was US$66.5 million in 2009. 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 3% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.
Worked out from the yearly values above. How the checks work: standard deviation, z-scores and straight-line trends.
