Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is a measure of the total economic output of a country. It is the sum of all the goods and services produced within a country over a given period. The GDP of a country is an important indicator of its economic health and can be used to compare the economic performance of different countries.

According to the World Bank, the United States has the highest GDP of any country in the world, with a value of $23.3 trillion. The American economy is one of the most diversified and technologically advanced in the world which contributes to the US’s large GDP. China is the second-largest economy in the world, with a GDP of $17.7 trillion. Japan, Germany, India, the United Kingdom, and France round out the top seven, all with GDPs over $3 trillion.

On the other hand, there are countries with low GDPs. The country with the lowest GDP in the world is Nauru, with a value of $133.2 million. Palau, Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, and São Tomé and Príncipe are some other countries with low GDPs. These countries are typically characterized by limited natural resources, small populations, geographic isolation, and a heavy reliance on tourism or foreign aid.

It is important to note that GDP is not necessarily an accurate reflection of the economic well-being of a country’s citizens. While a high GDP indicates a large and productive economy, it does not necessarily mean that all citizens are equally prosperous. Countries with lower GDPs may also have a higher standard of living if income is distributed more equally among the population.

The figures are based on GDP (Nominal) and sector composition ratios provided by the CIA World Fact Book. Agriculture includes farming, fishing, and forestry. Industry includes mining, manufacturing, energy production, and construction. Services cover government activities, communications, transportation, finance, and all other private economic activities that do not produce material goods.

CONTEXT

• Agriculture Sector : Agriculture Sector contributes 6.4 percent of total world's economic production. Total production of sector is $5,084,800 million. China is the largest contributer followed by India. China and India accounts for 19.49 and 7.39 percent of total global agricultural output. World's largest economy United States is at third place. Next in line come Brazil and Indonesia

• **Industry Sector : **With GDP of $23,835 billion, Industry Sector holds a share of 30% of total GDP nominal. China is the largest contributor followed by US. Japan is at 3rd and Germany is at 4th place. These four countries contributes 45.84 of total global industrial output.

• Services Sector : Services sector is the largest sector of the world as 63 percent of total global wealth comes from services sector. United States is the largest producer of services sector with around 15.53 trillion USD. Services sector is the leading sector in 201 countries/economies. 30 countries receive more than 80 percent of their GDP from services sector. Chad has lowest 27% contribution by services sector in its economy.

Gross domestic product (GDP) is a measure for the economic activity. It refers to the value of the total output of goods and services produced by an economy, less intermediate consumption, plus net taxes on products and imports. GDP per capita is calculated as the ratio of GDP to the average population in a specific year. Basic figures are expressed in purchasing power standards (PPS), which represents a common currency that eliminates the differences in price levels between countries to allow meaningful volume comparisons of GDP. The values are also offered as an index calculated in relation to the European Union average set to equal 100. If the index of a country is higher than 100, this country's level of GDP per head is higher than the EU average and vice versa. Please note that this index is intended for cross-country comparisons rather than for temporal comparisons. Finally, the disparities indicator offered for EU aggregates is calculated as the coefficient of variation of the national figures. This time series offers a measure of the convergence of economic activity between the EU Member States.

Dataset replaced by: http://data.europa.eu/euodp/data/dataset/e7XSsvplRDKyJkFqPz9B2w Please be aware that annual and quarterly national accounts' volume figures are expressed in chain-linked volumes with a reference year 2005. Thus, the figures for this indicator are not comparable with previous releases. For more information, click here. GDP includes goods and services that have markets (or which could have markets) and products which are produced by general government and non-profit institutions. For measuring the growth rate of real GDP, the GDP at current prices are valued in prices of the previous year and the thus computed volume changes are imposed on the level of a reference year; this is called a chain-linked series. Accordingly, price movements will not inflate the growth rate. Real GDP per capita is calculated as the ratio of real GDP to the average population of a specific year. It is often used as an indicator of how well off a country is, since it is a measure of average real income in that country. However, it is not a complete measure of economic welfare. For example, GDP does not include most unpaid household work. Neither does GDP take account of negative effects of economic activity, like environmental degradation. Real GDP per capita is based on rounded figures. Discrepancies in tables between totals and percentages are due to rounding.

Data from 1st of June 2022. For most recent GDP data, consult dataset nama_10_gdp. Gross domestic product (GDP) is a measure for the economic activity. It is defined as the value of all goods and services produced less the value of any goods or services used in their creation. The volume index of GDP per capita in Purchasing Power Standards (PPS) is expressed in relation to the European Union average set to equal 100. If the index of a country is higher than 100, this country's level of GDP per head is higher than the EU average and vice versa. Basic figures are expressed in PPS, i.e. a common currency that eliminates the differences in price levels between countries allowing meaningful volume comparisons of GDP between countries. Please note that the index, calculated from PPS figures and expressed with respect to EU27_2020 = 100, is intended for cross-country comparisons rather than for temporal comparisons."

Economic Fitness (EF) is both a measure of a country’s diversification and ability to produce complex goods on a globally competitive basis. Countries with the highest levels of EF have capabilities to produce a diverse portfolio of products, ability to upgrade into ever-increasing complex goods, tend to have more predictable long-term growth, and to attain good competitive position relative to other countries. Countries with low EF levels tend to suffer from poverty, low capabilities, less predictable growth, low value-addition, and trouble upgrading and diversifying faster than other countries. The comparison of the Fitness to the GDP reveals hidden information for the development and the growth of the countries.

Chad TD: GDP: USD: Gross National Income per Capita: Atlas Method data was reported at 670.000 USD in 2023. This records an increase from the previous number of 660.000 USD for 2022. Chad TD: GDP: USD: Gross National Income per Capita: Atlas Method data is updated yearly, averaging 220.000 USD from Dec 1962 (Median) to 2023, with 62 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 940.000 USD in 2014 and a record low of 110.000 USD in 1964. Chad TD: GDP: USD: Gross National Income per Capita: Atlas Method data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by World Bank. The data is categorized under Global Database’s Chad – Table TD.World Bank.WDI: Gross Domestic Product: Nominal. GNI per capita (formerly GNP per capita) is the gross national income, converted to U.S. dollars using the World Bank Atlas method, divided by the midyear population. GNI is the sum of value added by all resident producers plus any product taxes (less subsidies) not included in the valuation of output plus net receipts of primary income (compensation of employees and property income) from abroad. GNI, calculated in national currency, is usually converted to U.S. dollars at official exchange rates for comparisons across economies, although an alternative rate is used when the official exchange rate is judged to diverge by an exceptionally large margin from the rate actually applied in international transactions. To smooth fluctuations in prices and exchange rates, a special Atlas method of conversion is used by the World Bank. This applies a conversion factor that averages the exchange rate for a given year and the two preceding years, adjusted for differences in rates of inflation between the country, and through 2000, the G-5 countries (France, Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States). From 2001, these countries include the Euro area, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States.;World Bank national accounts data, and OECD National Accounts data files.;Weighted average;

Context : - A country's gross domestic product (GDP) at purchasing power parity (PPP) per capita is the PPP value of all final goods and services produced within an economy in a given year, divided by the average (or mid-year) population for the same year. This is similar to nominal GDP per capita, but adjusted for the cost of living in each country.

• In 2019, the estimated average GDP per capita (PPP) of all of the countries of the world was Int$ 18,381.[a] For rankings regarding wealth.

Method

• The gross domestic product (GDP) per capita figures on this page are derived from PPP calculations. Such calculations are prepared by various organizations, including the IMF and the World Bank. As estimates and assumptions have to be made, the results produced by different organizations for the same country are not hard facts and tend to differ, sometimes substantially, so they should be used with caution.

• Comparisons of national wealth are frequently made on the basis of nominal GDP and savings (not just income), which do not reflect differences in the cost of living in different countries (see List of countries by GDP (nominal) per capita); hence, using a PPP basis is arguably more useful when comparing generalized differences in living standards between economies because PPP takes into account the relative cost of living and the inflation rates of the countries, rather than using only exchange rates, which may distort the real differences in income.

• This is why GDP (PPP) per capita is often considered one of the indicators of a country's standard of living,[3][4] although this can be problematic because GDP per capita is not a measure of personal income. (See Standard of living and GDP.)

• GDP (PPP) and GDP (PPP) per capita are usually measured by international dollar, which is a hypothetical currency that has the same purchasing power in every economy as the U.S. dollar in the United States.

Content
