Overview
Burkina Faso's gdp ppp stood at $72.7B in 2025, a rise of +$4.5B from 2024. The IMF projects $72.7B by 2025. Burkina Faso ranked 112th globally.
Burkina Faso's GDP PPP experienced significant growth over the past 46 years, rising from $2,717,000,000.00 in 1980 to $72,743,000,000.00 in 2025, marking a substantial increase of over 26 times. This growth trajectory is comparable to that of Mongolia, which also achieved a GDP PPP of $73,028,000,000.00 in 2025, albeit as the 113th largest globally. In contrast, 1980 represented the trough for Burkina Faso's GDP PPP, a period when the country's economy was still recovering from the aftermath of a severe drought that affected agricultural production. The recent growth has enabled Burkina Faso to surpass neighboring Mali, with a GDP PPP of $72,963,000,000.00 in 2025. However, the country's economic trajectory may be impacted by ongoing conflicts in the Sahel region, which could potentially disrupt trade and investment flows, and alter the growth trajectory of Burkina Faso's economy in the coming years.
