Share of World GDP: Cambodia

Analysis# Cambodia Share of World GDP Cambodia currently represents 0.073% of world GDP in 2026, matching its all-time peak. The country has experienced remarkable growth since 1987, when it accounted for just 0.023% of global output—a 217.4% increase over nearly four decades. This expansion reflects Cambodia's recovery and development following the Khmer Rouge period and its subsequent integration into regional and global trade networks. Recent performance shows steady momentum. From 2017 through 2026, Cambodia's share climbed from 0.065% to 0.073%, with only a minor dip in 2021 during pandemic disruptions. The consistent upward trajectory since 2022 indicates sustained economic growth. Projections beyond 2026 suggest Cambodia may maintain this elevated position, driven by garment manufacturing, tourism, and increasing foreign investment in Southeast Asia's emerging markets.
