About This Indicator
Definition
GDP per capita is the gross domestic product divided by the midyear population. It provides a rough measure of average economic output per person and is widely used as an indicator of a country's standard of living.
Methodology
Calculated by dividing nominal GDP (in current USD) by the total midyear population. The IMF uses its own GDP estimates and UN population projections. This measure uses market exchange rates for currency conversion.
