ABOUT

The Global GDP Per Capita Dataset provides a comprehensive record of annual economic output per person across various countries and regions. It includes key economic indicators such as GDP per capita (adjusted for inflation and purchasing power parity), country codes, and yearly data points. This dataset is valuable for economists, researchers, policymakers, and analysts interested in studying economic growth, income distribution, and global development trends.

Key features of the dataset:

✅ Covers multiple countries and regions worldwide
✅ Provides annual GDP per capita data from 1990 to 2023
✅ Adjusted for inflation and purchasing power parity (PPP, constant 2021$)
✅ Sourced from the World Bank - World Development Indicators
✅ Useful for economic analysis, policy-making, and financial forecasting

This dataset serves as a crucial resource for understanding global economic trends, comparing living standards across nations, and making data-driven decisions in economic research and policy development.

FILE INFORMATION

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;

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.

Data are in current U.S. dollars.

This map contains Gross Domestic Product - the total value of goods produced and services provided - by country, per capita in 2016, expressed in 2016 US Dollars. Expressing the GDP in "per capita" terms allows for better comparisons across countries. Total GDP is available in an accompanying map. GDP as a measure has been largely criticized as an incomplete measure of productivity and wealth, as it does not take into account production in the informal economy, quality of life, degradation to the environment, or income distribution. However, GDP is an internationally comparable measure, used in everything from banks setting interest rates to political campaign speeches.Source: World Bank, World Development Indicators.
