GDP per Capita (PPP): Lebanon

Analysis# Lebanon GDP per Capita (PPP) Lebanon's GDP per capita (PPP) stood at 11,815.59 international dollars in 2024, representing a dramatic decline from its all-time peak of 22,107.63 international dollars in 2018. Despite this recent contraction, the country has grown 57.7% since 1980, when it measured 5,097.94 international dollars. The current figure hovers closer to the lower end of Lebanon's historical range, signaling substantial economic deterioration over the past six years. The nation's economic trajectory shows a sharp inflection point in 2019–2020, when GDP per capita plummeted 37.8% in a single year—from 21,779.09 to 13,566.38 international dollars. This collapse reflects the country's severe financial and political crises that began in late 2019. Recovery has been minimal, with the metric hovering between 10,711 and 12,464 international dollars from 2021 onward, suggesting persistent structural challenges and limited near-term improvement prospects.
