Belize GNI (1960–2025)

Overview

Belize's gni stood at $3.4B in 2025, a rise of +$367.9M from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach $3.4B by 2025. Belize ranked 170th globally.

Belize’s gross national income (GNI) rose from a modest US$27,931,217.93 in 1960 to US$3,441,556,275.00 in 2025, placing the country 170th globally and marking an all‑time peak in the most recent year. Over the 66‑year span, the increase reflects sustained expansion of tourism, offshore financial services and agricultural exports, while the modest size of the economy keeps total GNI well below that of peer nations such as Curaçao (US$3,905,102,498.94) and Burundi (US$3,361,204,920.41). The early low point in 1960 coincided with limited infrastructure and a narrow export base, but successive diversification and modest foreign investment have driven the upward trajectory. Although the absolute level remains modest compared with larger regional economies, the consistent growth suggests resilience. Continued investment in high‑value sectors and climate‑adapted agriculture could reinforce this trend, while external shocks such as natural disasters or global downturns would be the principal risks to future GNI expansion.
