Ecuador GNI per Capita (1962–2025)

Overview

Ecuador's gni per capita stood at $6,975 in 2025, a rise of +$545 from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach $6,975 by 2025. Ecuador ranked 111th globally.

Ecuador’s gross national income per capita has risen from a low of 350.00 in 1963 to an all‑time peak of 6,975.00 in 2025, ranking 111th globally among 190 economies. Over the 64‑year series the indicator increased by more than 1,900 percent, reflecting structural reforms, diversification of export markets and modest improvements in productivity. The upward trajectory accelerated after the early 2000s when macro‑economic stabilization policies curbed inflation and attracted foreign investment, lifting GNI per capita above 5,000 for the first time in 2010. By comparison, neighboring Colombia recorded 7,333.00 in the same year, while Thailand posted 7,248.00, indicating that Ecuador remains slightly behind its regional peers despite steady gains. The 2025 figure of 6,975.00 suggests continued progress, but sustaining higher growth will depend on expanding high‑value exports, deepening fiscal consolidation and reducing vulnerability to commodity price shocks, which could further improve the country’s position in the global ranking.
