What the numbers say
In 2025, Ukraine's GDP per capita (annual % growth) fell 4.18 percentage points on 2024 (from 2.86% to -1.32%).
Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1995 to 2024), the average change was +0.84 percentage points and a typical year strayed about 11.35 percentage points from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.4 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 38.19 percentage points in 2023 and the biggest yearly fall was 27.16 percentage points in 2022. 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 1% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.
