Bahrain GNI per Capita (1980–2025)

Overview

Bahrain's gni per capita stood at $30,290 in 2025, a rise of +$2,200 from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach $30,290 by 2025. Bahrain ranked 49th globally.

Bahrain's GNI per capita has witnessed significant growth over the last four decades, rising from a trough of 7,020.00 in 1986 to a peak of 30,290.00 in 2025. The country's economic trajectory has positioned it as the 49th globally, surpassing several European nations. Compared to its peer countries, Estonia's higher GNI per capita of 30,364.00 stands out, while Lithuania's 29,077.00 represents a relatively comparable benchmark. The steady increase in Bahrain's GNI per capita is a testament to the nation's economic development, driven by its strategic location and growing hydrocarbon reserves. Despite this progress, Bahrain's economy remains vulnerable to fluctuations in global oil prices and shifting regional dynamics. The country's ability to transition towards a more diversified economy will be crucial in sustaining its economic growth trajectory. A decline in global oil prices or a significant shift in regional geopolitics could potentially alter this trajectory.
