Analysis# Syria GDP per Capita (PPP) Syria's GDP per capita (PPP) reached 6,374.969 international dollars in 2010, marking both its all-time peak and the conclusion of the available data range. This figure represents a dramatic 207.5% increase from 1980's low of 2,072.834 international dollars, demonstrating sustained economic growth over three decades. The country more than tripled its purchasing power-adjusted income per person across this period. The 2000s witnessed consistent upward momentum, with annual gains accelerating significantly after 2004. From 2004 through 2010, Syria added nearly 1,559 international dollars to its per capita GDP, averaging roughly 260 dollars annually. The uninterrupted climb during this seven-year stretch, despite global economic volatility, suggests robust economic expansion driven by oil revenues and domestic development initiatives during this pre-2011 period.
