Analysis# Puerto Rico Share of World GDP
Puerto Rico currently accounts for 0.076% of global GDP in 2026, marking its lowest point in the recorded data span. The island's economic footprint has contracted significantly since its peak of 0.169% in 2001, representing a 50.3% decline over nearly five decades. This erosion reflects Puerto Rico's diminishing share of global economic output relative to worldwide growth.
The territory experienced a sharp downturn beginning in the early 2000s, losing roughly half its relative economic weight within two decades. Recent years show continued decline, with the share dropping from 0.087% in 2017 to 0.076% in 2026. The downward trajectory appears consistent through the forecast period, suggesting Puerto Rico's global economic relevance continues to shrink as larger economies expand at faster rates.
