National Savings: Comoros

Analysis# Comoros National Savings Comoros's national savings have collapsed to -0.924% of GDP in 2026, marking a dramatic reversal from the country's peak of 17.919% in 2010. Over the 22-year period from 2004 to 2026, national savings declined by 107.6%, reflecting a fundamental shift from accumulation to dissaving. The current negative figure represents the lowest point in the entire data range, signaling structural challenges in the economy's ability to generate domestic capital. The deterioration accelerated sharply after 2020, when savings stood at a healthy 16.107% of GDP. A consistent downward trend emerged from 2021 onward, with savings eroding through 2023 (6.487%), 2024 (4.888%), and 2025 (2.384%) before turning negative. This sustained contraction suggests persistent fiscal pressures or declining household and government capacity to save, pointing to ongoing economic vulnerability.
