Overview
Libya's gdp ppp stood at $125.2B in 2025, a rise of +$19.6B from 2024. The IMF projects $125.2B by 2025. Libya ranked 93rd globally.
Libya’s gross domestic product measured at purchasing power parity has risen from a low of 52,114,000,000.00 in 1987, the all‑time trough, to a high of 196,456,261,301.19 in 2010, before retreating to 125,195,000,000.00 in 2025, placing the country 93rd globally. The post‑peak decline reflects the combined impact of political instability, oil‑sector disruptions and reduced foreign investment that followed the 2011 civil conflict, while the modest rebound after 2015 coincides with partial restoration of oil output and limited fiscal reforms. Compared with peers of similar rank, Libya’s 2025 PPP GDP is slightly below Jordan’s 131,708,000,000.00 and marginally above Slovenia’s 122,985,000,000.00, underscoring a convergence with middle‑income economies despite lingering structural challenges. Continued diversification away from hydrocarbon dependence and sustained security improvements would be required to shift the trajectory upward and narrow the gap with higher‑ranking peers.
