What the numbers say
In 2020, Zimbabwe's adjusted net savings, including particulate emission damage (current US$) fell US$911.27 million on 2019 (from US$1.22 billion to US$305.9 million).
Across the 14 yearly changes before that (1991 to 2019), the average change was +US$323.53 million and a typical year strayed about US$1.4 billion from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.9 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$3.81 billion in 2018 and the biggest yearly fall was US$2.32 billion in 2012. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2011 to 2020 the straight-line trend is upward, about US$549.61 million a year. A straight line explains 54% of the movement over 10 observed years.

Adjusted net savings are equal to net national savings plus education expenditure and minus energy depletion, mineral depletion, net forest depletion, and carbon dioxide and 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.
