Understanding Household Consumption to GDP — a simple guide

What it measures

Household final consumption expenditure as a share of GDP.

How it is calculated

Household spending on goods and services ÷ GDP × 100.

Simple example

A ratio of 60% means households account for 60% of total demand.

▲ When it is high or rising

Consumption-led economies depend on household income and confidence.

▼ When it is low or falling

A low share usually means investment or exports drive the economy.

Why it matters for the economy and markets

Consumption is the largest component of demand in most economies.

How to read it

Economies with high consumption shares are more sensitive to household income, credit and confidence.
