In 2025, the United States had the largest economy in the world, with a gross domestic product of over 30 trillion U.S. dollars. China had the second largest economy, at around 19.23 trillion U.S. dollars. Recent adjustments in the list have seen Germany's economy overtake Japan's to become the third-largest in the world in 2023, while Brazil's economy moved ahead of Russia's in 2024. Global gross domestic product Global gross domestic product amounts to almost 110 trillion U.S. dollars, with the United States making up more than one-quarter of this figure alone. The 12 largest economies in the world include all Group of Seven (G7) economies, as well as the four largest BRICS economies. The U.S. has consistently had the world's largest economy since the interwar period, and while previous reports estimated it would be overtaken by China in the 2020s, more recent projections estimate the U.S. economy will remain the largest by a considerable margin going into the 2030s.The gross domestic product of a country is calculated by taking spending and trade into account, to show how much the country can produce in a certain amount of time, usually per year. It represents the value of all goods and services produced during that year. Those countries considered to have emerging or developing economies account for almost 60 percent of global gross domestic product, while advanced economies make up over 40 percent.

A country’s real GDP is a measure that shows the value of the goods and services produced by an economy and is adjusted for inflation. The real GDP of a country helps economists to see the health of a country’s economy and its standard of living. Downturns in GDP growth can indicate financial difficulties, such as the financial crisis of 2008 and 2009, when the U.S. GDP decreased by 2.5 percent. The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on U.S. GDP, shrinking the economy 2.8 percent. The U.S. economy rebounded in 2021, however, growing by nearly six percent. Why real GDP per capita matters Real GDP per capita takes the GDP of a country, state, or metropolitan area and divides it by the number of people in that area. Some argue that per-capita GDP is more important than the GDP of a country, as it is a good indicator of whether or not the country’s population is getting wealthier, thus increasing the standard of living in that area. The best measure of standard of living when comparing across countries is thought to be GDP per capita at purchasing power parity (PPP) which uses the prices of specific goods to compare the absolute purchasing power of a countries currency.

This dataset provides key economic indicators for five of the world's largest economies, based on their nominal Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in 2022. It includes the GDP values, population, GDP growth rates, per capita GDP, and each country's share of the global economy.

Columns: Country: Name of the country. GDP (nominal, 2022): The total nominal GDP in 2022, represented in USD. GDP (abbrev.): The abbreviated GDP in trillions of USD. GDP growth: The percentage growth in GDP compared to the previous year. Population: Total population of each country in 2022. GDP per capita: The GDP per capita, representing average economic output per person in USD. Share of world GDP: The percentage of global GDP contributed by each country. Key Highlights: The dataset includes some of the largest global economies, such as the United States, China, Japan, Germany, and India. The data can be used to analyze the economic standing of countries in terms of overall GDP and per capita wealth. It offers insights into the relative growth rates and population sizes of these leading economies. This dataset is ideal for exploring economic trends, performing country-wise comparisons, or studying the relationship between population size and GDP growth.

</ul>GDP per capita is gross domestic product divided by midyear population. GDP is the sum of gross value added by all resident producers in the economy plus any product taxes and minus any subsidies not included in the value of the products. It is calculated without making deductions for depreciation of fabricated assets or for depletion and degradation of natural resources. Data are in current U.S. dollars.

The table shows quarterly GDP levels around the world, i.e. the value of all goods and services produced on the territory of the country over a three month period. This is nominal GDP so its changes over time reflect both changes in the amounts of goods and services produced as well as their prices. The first column of the table is the most recent GDP number released by the national governments. Please note that we update these data on a daily basis. The second column is the percent change in the nominal GDP from the previous quarter. The third column is the percent change from the same quarter last year. The latter one is a useful measure of growth as it eliminates seasonal factors by comparing the GDP levels at the same time of the current and the previous year. Real GDP growth, i.e. excluding price changes, is typically about 1-3 percent per year. Therefore, nominal rates of growth well in excess of that are definitely due to rising prices much more than to rising output levels.

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.
