Analysis# Congo, Republic of National Savings Congo, Republic of's national savings stood at 22.657% of GDP in 2026, marking both an all-time low and a dramatic 43.2% decline since 2004. The country peaked at 57.835% of GDP in 2013, nearly 2.6 times the current level. Over two decades, this metric reveals a persistent downward pressure on the nation's ability to accumulate domestic capital. The most striking shift occurred between 2018 and 2019, when savings dropped from 48.016% to 37.579% of GDP—a sharp 9.4-percentage-point contraction. While a brief recovery to 43.425% emerged in 2022, the subsequent years have seen accelerating deterioration, with savings falling from 32.101% in 2023 to 22.657% by 2026. This sustained decline suggests structural challenges in maintaining investment capacity.
