GDP growth
by country

Annual percentage growth of inflation-adjusted GDP. The table keeps each country's reported year visible so stale and current observations are not treated as equivalent.

What it helps answer

Reading the signal

Shows whether the volume of economic activity expanded or contracted from the previous year after removing domestic price changes.

Before comparing

Important limits

A rebound after a recession can produce a large rate from a depressed base. One year is noisy, so read it with several prior years and the absolute size of the economy.

Measurement

Source definition

GDP growth (annual %)

Gross domestic product is the total income earned through the production of goods and services in an economic territory during an accounting period. It can be measured in three different ways: using either the expenditure approach, the income approach, or the production approach. This indicator denotes the percentage change over each previous year of the constant price (base year 2015) series in United States dollars.
