Suriname's Gross Savings indicator has recorded significant fluctuations over the past three decades. With a current global ranking of #162, the country's gross savings rate stood at -3.69% in 2025, a notable decline from its peak of 60.79% in 2014. In contrast, Yemen, a peer country with a comparable ranking, reported a gross savings rate of -3.46% in the same year. The all-time trough of -14.53% in 1991 marked a low point in Suriname's economic stability. The country's gross savings rate has been on a downward trajectory since 2014, with no signs of recovery in the near future. This trend is likely to continue unless the government implements policies to boost economic growth and reduce reliance on external aid, which could potentially alter the trajectory of Suriname's gross savings rate in the coming years.
