Analysis# Cabo Verde GDP per Capita
Cabo Verde's GDP per capita reached 6,069.475 USD in 2026, marking the nation's all-time peak. This represents a dramatic 966.3% increase since 1980, when the metric stood at just 493.568 USD. The island nation has transformed from one of the world's poorest economies into a lower-middle-income country over four decades of sustained development.
The recovery from the 2020 pandemic downturn exemplifies Cabo Verde's resilience. GDP per capita dropped to 3,646.827 USD that year but rebounded sharply thereafter, averaging annual gains of approximately 6–8% from 2021 through 2026. The consistent upward trajectory suggests continued momentum, with projections pointing toward further growth as economic diversification and tourism development intensify.
