This dataset presents key economic indicators for the top 10 largest economies in the world as of 2025, including GDP, growth rates, global GDP share, and GDP per capita.
In 2025, Luxembourg was the country with the highest gross domestic product per capita in the world. Of the 20 listed countries, 13 are in Europe and five are in Asia, alongside the U.S. and Australia. There are no African or Latin American countries among the top 20. Correlation with high living standards While GDP is a useful indicator for measuring the size or strength of an economy, GDP per capita is much more reflective of living standards. For example, when compared to life expectancy or indices such as the Human Development Index or the World Happiness Report, there is a strong overlap - 14 of the 20 countries on this list are also ranked among the 20 happiest countries in 2024, and all 20 have "very high" HDIs. Misleading metrics? GDP per capita figures, however, can be misleading, and to paint a fuller picture of a country's living standards then one must look at multiple metrics. GDP per capita figures can be skewed by inequalities in wealth distribution, and in countries such as those in the Middle East, a relatively large share of the population lives in poverty while a smaller number live affluent lifestyles.

In 2024, Brazil and Mexico were expected to be the countries with the largest gross domestic product (GDP) in Latin America and the Caribbean. In that year, Brazil's GDP could reach an estimated value of 2.4 trillion U.S. dollars, whereas Mexico's amounted to almost two trillion U.S. dollars. GDP is the total value of all goods and services produced in a country in a given year. It measures the economic strength of a country and a positive change indicates economic growth.
The graph shows China's share in global gross domestic product adjusted for purchasing-power-parity until 2024, with a forecast until 2030. In 2024, China's share was about 19.45 percent. China's global GDP share Due to the introduction of capitalist market principles in 1978, China's economic market began to show immense change and growth. China's real GDP growth ranged at 5.0 percent in 2024. China's per capita GDP is also expected to continue to grow, reaching 13,300 U.S. dollars in 2024. Comparatively, Luxembourg and Switzerland have some of the world’s largest GDP per capita with 141,100 U.S. dollars and 111,700 U.S. dollars, respectively, expected for 2025.China is the largest exporter and second largest importer of goods in the world and is also among the largest manufacturing economies. The country also ranges among the world's largest agricultural producers and consumers. It relies heavily on intensive agricultural practices and is the world's largest producer of pigs, chickens, and eggs. Livestock production has been heavily emphasized since the mid-1970s. China’s chemical industry has also seen growth with a heavy focus on fertilizers, plastics, and synthetic fibers. China's use of chemical fertilizers amounted to approximately 50.2 million metric tons in 2023. GDP composition in China Industry and construction account for less than 40 percent of China's GDP. Some of the major industries include mining and ore processing, food processing, coal, machinery, textiles and apparel, and consumer products. Almost half of China's output is dedicated to investment purposes. However, as the country tends to support gross output, innovation, technological advancement, and even quality are often lacking.

Market Drivers
The rising immigrant population and global brain drain are fueling the digital remittance market
The accelerating global movement of people—particularly from low- and middle-income nations to more developed economies—is a powerful force driving the digital remittance market. Migration today is not just about labor mobility; it's about financial connectivity. As skilled, semi-skilled, and even unskilled individuals relocate for better economic prospects, they become central agents in a transnational flow of capital—remittances—which are increasingly being digitized.
As of 2023, the international migrant population surpassed 280 million, representing over 3.5% of the world’s population (U.S. Census Bureau). Many of these migrants, including doctors, nurses, engineers, construction workers, and caregivers, contribute significantly to the labor markets in host countries while simultaneously supporting their families back home. This two-way economic impact—bolstering host economies while providing critical income to home countries—is increasingly mediated through digital remittance platforms. These figures underscore the fact that migrant workers are effectively one of the largest sources of foreign income for many nations, often surpassing both foreign aid and direct investment.
A growing share of these migrants are highly educated professionals, part of a broader trend known as "brain drain." Countries across South Asia, West Africa, and Eastern Europe are witnessing an outflow of talent, particularly in sectors like medicine, IT, and academia. While this raises challenges for the home country’s workforce development, it simultaneously boosts remittance flows as these skilled professionals tend to earn higher wages and remit more funds.
For instance,
The United Kingdom and Canada have both seen a surge in foreign-trained nurses and doctors, particularly from Nigeria, India, and the Philippines—countries that, in turn, have experienced an increase in remittance volumes. [ICN Report]
These remittances play a vital role in supporting families and strengthening local economies, emphasizing the interconnectedness of global migration and economic stability. In Nigeria, authorities are targeting $1 billion in monthly remittance inflows, part of a broader initiative to tap diaspora capital through innovations such as a U.S. dollar-denominated diaspora bond and improved digital transfer frameworks (MSME Africa Online)
Immigration policy shifts in key remittance-sending countries like the U.S., Canada, Germany, and Gulf States have far-reaching effects on remittance volumes. Latin American economies such as Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador are particularly vulnerable to U.S. immigration changes. These three countries alone received $35 billion in remittances in 2023, primarily from migrants working in the United States. A recent report notes that U.S. election outcomes could significantly alter remittance flows, as immigration and deportation policies shape who can stay and work legally—and thus, continue to remit money (https://www.worldbank.org/en/news/press-release/2023/12/18/remittance-flows-grow-2023-slower-pace-migration-development-brief).
