Understanding GDP per Capita — a simple guide

What it measures

GDP divided by mid-year population, in current US dollars.

How it is calculated

GDP ÷ population. It shows average output (roughly, average income) per person in US dollars.

Simple example

A country with GDP of $4,000 billion and 1,450 million people has GDP per capita of about $2,760.

▲ When it is high or rising

Higher values usually mean higher average incomes and living standards.

▼ When it is low or falling

Lower values mean lower average income; the World Bank uses similar measures to group countries by income level.

Why it matters for the economy and markets

It is a rough measure of average income and living standards and is used to classify countries by income level.

How to read it

Market exchange rates can understate living standards in lower-cost countries — compare with GDP per capita PPP.

What to look at alongside it

GDP per capita PPP, population growth and inequality.

Key terms

Per capita
Per person.
