Gross savings as % of GDP NY.GNS.ICTR.ZS

Overview

Algeria’s gross savings rate has risen steadily over the 49‑year series, moving from a low of 16.98 percent in 1988 – the all‑time trough – to a recent 35.45 percent in 2025, placing the country 12th worldwide. The indicator peaked at 56.62 percent in 2008, reflecting the high commodity prices and fiscal surpluses of that period, before retreating as global demand softened and public investment expanded. Compared with regional peers, Algeria’s 2025 rate is marginally below Mauritania’s 35.81 percent and just above Gabon’s 35.41 percent, indicating a comparable saving propensity within North‑West Africa. The long‑run upward trajectory suggests that continued diversification of the economy and prudent fiscal management could sustain higher savings, while a reversal of current external shocks or a shift toward higher consumption would likely dampen the positive trend.
