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

Overview
Honduras's gross savings stood at 22.01% in 2025, a rise of +4.26% from 2024. The IMF projects 22.01% by 2025. Honduras ranked 81st globally.
Honduras’ gross savings rate has risen from a low of 9.43 percent in 1984, the all‑time trough, to an all‑time peak of 28.24 percent in 1998, before settling at 22.01 percent in 2025, a level that places the country 81st in the world. Over the 52‑year series the upward trajectory reflects gradual improvements in fiscal discipline and modest growth in private sector investment, yet the current rate remains marginally below that of peers such as Croatia (22.11 percent) and Jamaica (21.98 percent). The post‑peak decline after 1998 suggests that the surge in savings was not fully consolidated, possibly due to external shocks and limited financial deepening. Continued reforms to broaden access to credit, enhance pension coverage and strengthen tax collection could sustain the recent gains, allowing Honduras to move closer to the higher savings ratios observed in more advanced economies.
