Overview
El Salvador's gdp ppp stood at $88.4B in 2025, a rise of +$4.3B from 2024. The IMF projects $88.4B by 2025. El Salvador ranked 102nd globally.
El Salvador’s gross domestic product measured at purchasing power parity rose from 11,174,000,000.00 in 1980 to an all‑time peak of 88,394,000,000.00 in 2025, placing the country at rank 102 globally and situating it between Honduras (86,292,000,000.00) and Macao SAR, China (92,738,000,000.00) in the current peer group. The 46‑year span reflects a cumulative increase of roughly 692 percent, driven by structural reforms in the services sector, modest expansion of manufacturing, and remittance inflows that have become a significant component of national income. While the early 1980s were marked by civil conflict and economic contraction, the post‑war era saw gradual stabilization, and the 2010s introduced fiscal incentives that accelerated growth. Nevertheless, the economy remains vulnerable to external shocks such as commodity price volatility and migration dynamics. Continued diversification of exports and investment in human capital will be crucial to sustain the upward trajectory and narrow the gap with higher‑ranking peers.
