About this indicator
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) measures the total value of all final goods and services produced within a country in a given period. It is a broad indicator of the size of an economy and its overall level of economic activity. It captures the outcome of economic activity by households, businesses and the government.
Cumulative growth of GDP since 2010 reflects the extent to which an economy's GDP has expanded since that base year. By accounting for the compounded effect of changes over time, this indicator highlights long-term economic trends rather than short-term fluctuations.
These figures represent real growth, meaning they are calculated using constant prices to remove the effects of inflation.
Calculation method: Each value on this chart represents the total percentage change since 2010. It is calculated by taking the difference between the Real GDP of the year shown and the Real GDP of 2010, divided by the 2010 value.
