Overview
Guinea-Bissau's gdp stood at $2.5B in 2025, a rise of +$255.6M from 2024. The IMF projects $2.5B by 2025. Guinea-Bissau ranked 166th globally.
Guinea‑Bissau’s gross domestic product has risen from a trough of 204,167,296.86 in 1971 to an all‑time peak of 2,474,000,000.00 in 2025, placing the country at rank 166 globally with the 2025 figure of 2,474,000,000.00. Over the 56‑year span the economy expanded by more than twelvefold, a trajectory that mirrors modest growth patterns observed in other low‑income coastal states such as The Gambia, whose 2025 GDP stands at 2,497,000,000.00, and Lesotho, with 2,390,000,000.00. The early 1970s low point reflects the post‑independence challenges of political instability and limited export diversification, while recent gains are tied to incremental improvements in agricultural output and modest foreign aid inflows. Nevertheless, the economy remains vulnerable to external shocks, particularly fluctuations in commodity prices and climate‑related disruptions to farming. Continued investment in infrastructure and diversification of export markets will be crucial to sustain the upward trend and avoid a reversal of the recent gains.
