About This Statistic

GDP per capita is one of the most widely used indicators of economic prosperity. It's calculated by dividing a country's Gross Domestic Product by its population. However, it doesn't account for income inequality within countries.

Small countries with large financial sectors (Luxembourg, Ireland, Singapore) often top the rankings. The gap between the richest and poorest countries can exceed 50:1, highlighting extreme global inequality.
