List of countries by GDP (PPP) per capita

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Map of countries by GDP (PPP) per capita, in international dollars, based on the 2005 IMF data.
Map of countries by GDP (PPP) per capita, in international dollars, based on the 2005 IMF data.

This article includes two lists of countries of the world[1] sorted by their gross domestic product (GDP) at purchasing power parity (PPP) per capita, the value of all final goods and services produced within a nation in a given year divided by the average population for the same year.

GDP dollar estimates here are derived from purchasing power parity (PPP) calculations. Such calculations are prepared by various organizations, including the International Monetary Fund, the University of Pennsylvania, and the World Bank. As estimates and assumptions have to be made, the results produced by different organizations for the same country tend to differ, sometimes substantially. PPP per capita figures are estimates rather than hard facts, and should be used with caution.

Comparisons of national wealth are also frequently made on the basis of nominal GDP, which does not reflect differences in the cost of living in different countries. (See List of countries by GDP (nominal) per capita.) The advantages of using nominal GDP figures include that less estimation is required, and that they more accurately reflect the participation of the inhabitants of a country in the global economy.

  • The first table below includes data for the year 2005 for all 181 members of the International Monetary Fund, for which information is available.
  • The second table is a tabulation of the CIA World Factbook data update of March 2007, according to the data provided by the CIA. Figures are estimates in international dollars, and almost[2] all of the figures are for the year 2006. Sovereign territories are ranked.
