DEFINITION: GDP at purchaser's prices is the sum of gross value added by all resident producers in the economy plus any product taxes and minus any subsidies not included in the value of the products. It is calculated without making deductions for depreciation of fabricated assets or for depletion and degradation of natural resources. Data are in current U.S. dollars. Dollar figures for GDP are converted from domestic currencies using single year official exchange rates. For a few countries where the official exchange rate does not reflect the rate effectively applied to actual foreign exchange transactions, an alternative conversion factor is used. Per capita figures expressed per 1 population

COMMENTARY     

Ron
31st January 2010 		I would like to see the stats for the US NOW, after three years of Democrats in Congress and the Senate..
Jennifer from CNPS
29th January 2010 		The GDP per capita is very useful for school projects!
Nsom Philemon(cameroon)
11th January 2010 		Bravo Cameroon as you advance economically...
Marti
4th January 2010 		Where is Catalonia?
Abdur Rafique
2nd January 2010 		Excellent and very wide range of data coverage. In most cases such as GDP, GDP (PPP), education data need updating.
Korea.south
13th December 2009 		Korea 's GDP per capita figur is 68$. (1960)
Spike
27th September 2009 		There isn't Kiribati!
Shelbie Janise
10th September 2009 		I like to use this website especially to help my daughter with her homework. Your statistics should be a little more updated though. I do find it quite aggrivating when they ask for the present year, and the most recent year you have is four years ago.
Crystal
3rd September 2009 		How do I find
Abe+Bird
26th August 2009 		Israel GDP in 2006 was 25000$, though she has to be put in place 35. http://www.indexmundi.com/g/g.aspx?c=is&v=67 .
passingby
3rd August 2009 		I've travelled a lot to rich and poor countries and am convinced that GDP per capita is only a very inaccurate measure of the well being of people - It is only one measure and a very, very rough one, that needs a many other measures to quialify it - by itself it's pure bullshit
Seán Pòl Ó Creachmhaoil
11th June 2009 		The figure for Bermuda seems very wrong. The New York Times website, from which I linked to this website, gives it as $69,900.
Concerned indicator
26th May 2009 		Can you believe that Luxemburg makes $90,000 a year! If i had that much money, I would buy a monkey!
Keith
16th May 2009 		Great data, but a bit hard to navigate.

I found this site to have easier navigation, and it included economic analysis as well as stats.

However it has less data and is still in beta. It is on EconomyWatch.com, called the Economic Statistics Database.

Here is the link: http://www.economywatch.com/economic-statistics/
Keith
16th May 2009 		Excellent depth of data, but I do find Nationmaster a bit hard to use.

A new service in beta that has less data, but is easier to use and has economic analysis together with the data points, can be found here:

http://www.economywatch.com/economic-statistics/
Jenny
16th May 2009 		Excellent depth of stats here, but I do find the site a bit hard to use.

There is a new service which doesn't yet have much data, but which I have found easier to use. It includes analysis of economic figures as well as the data. You can find it here:

http://www.economywatch.com/economic-statistics/
Muhammad Ali
10th May 2009 		This is an out dated statistics.
Srilanka and pakistan are no more higher than bangladesh
Nayef Aldosari (Qatar)
5th November 2006 		Qatar's GDP per capita figure is outdated. The current figure (2005)is $49,655
