Economic Data Descriptions

GDP (current US$)

GDP (current US$) refers to the Gross Domestic Product measured in current United States dollars. It is a key economic indicator that represents the total monetary value of all goods and services produced within a country's borders in a specific time period, usually a year. This metric provides a comprehensive overview of a nation's economic activity and is widely used for comparing the economic performance of different countries. Calculated in current US dollars, GDP (current US$) takes into account inflation and exchange rate fluctuations, allowing for meaningful international comparisons of economic output and trends.

World Bank National Accounts Data

The World Bank National Accounts data refers to a comprehensive and reliable set of economic data compiled and maintained by the World Bank. These data files encompass a wide range of economic indicators, including GDP, for countries across the globe. The World Bank collects and analyzes national accounts data from various sources, such as government agencies and international organizations, to provide accurate and up-to-date information on economic activities, expenditures, and incomes within different countries. Researchers, policymakers, and analysts often rely on World Bank National Accounts data to assess economic performance, formulate policies, and conduct cross-country comparisons.

OECD National Accounts Data Files

The OECD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development) National Accounts data files contain detailed economic information about OECD member countries and other major economies. These files include comprehensive data on GDP, consumption, investment, government spending, and other economic indicators. OECD collects and publishes these data to facilitate in-depth analysis of economic trends, policy evaluations, and international comparisons. Researchers, economists, and policymakers utilize OECD National Accounts data files to gain insights into the economic health of individual countries, identify patterns, and make informed decisions based on robust and standardized economic data.

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.

The data is categorized under Global Database’s USA – Table US.World Bank: Gross Domestic Product: Annual Growth Rate. Annual growth rate for value added in services based on constant local currency. Aggregates are based on constant 2010 U.S. dollars. Services correspond to ISIC divisions 50-99. They include value added in wholesale and retail trade (including hotels and restaurants), transport, and government, financial, professional, and personal services such as education, health care, and real estate services. Also included are imputed bank service charges, import duties, and any statistical discrepancies noted by national compilers as well as discrepancies arising from rescaling. Value added is the net output of a sector after adding up all outputs and subtracting intermediate inputs. It is calculated without making deductions for depreciation of fabricated assets or depletion and degradation of natural resources. The industrial origin of value added is determined by the International Standard Industrial Classification (ISIC), revision 3.; ; World Bank national accounts data, and OECD National Accounts data files.; Weighted Average; Note: Data for OECD countries are based on ISIC, revision 4.

Title: GDP & Crises Analysis Using World Bank Indicators

Description: This dataset includes key global development indicators collected from the World Bank database. It covers country-level annual data on: - Gross Domestic Product (GDP, current US$) - Population - Poverty headcount ratio at national poverty line (% of population) - Natural Resource Rents (% of GDP)

Objective: This project investigates how major global crises — specifically the 2008 Financial Crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic — influenced GDP across countries. The study also explores how structural factors like population size, poverty levels, and natural resource dependence relate to total GDP and GDP per capita.

Key Research Questions: - How did GDP respond to the 2008 and COVID-19 crises across different regions? - What is the relationship between population and GDP versus GDP per capita? - How do poverty rates correlate with national income? - Does natural resource rent (as a share of GDP) positively or negatively relate to economic performance?

Methods Used: - Descriptive statistics and trend analysis - Econometric modeling (linear regression, fixed effects models) - Interaction analysis (e.g., poverty × population) - Visualization using ggplot2
