Niger PPP Conversion Factor
PPP conversion factor, GDP PA.NUS.PPP
Niger's ppp conversion factor was 208.15 in 2025, ranked 36th globally. This represents a 4.3% decrease from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 1990–2025.
Overview
Niger's ppp conversion factor stood at 208.15 in 2025, a decline of +9.34 from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 208.15 by 2025. Niger ranked 36th globally.
Niger’s purchasing power parity (PPP) conversion factor has risen from 156.15 in 1990 to 208.15 in 2025, placing the country 36th globally and just below peers such as Chad (209.75) and Senegal (209.90). The indicator peaked at 251.85 in 2018, reflecting a period of relatively strong price‑level adjustments, before falling to a trough of 127.99 in 1993 during a severe macro‑economic shock. Over the 36‑year coverage, the upward trajectory suggests gradual improvement in the relative cost of living and domestic price stability, albeit with notable volatility. Compared with neighboring Benin (199.83) and Burkina Faso (199.73), Niger’s conversion factor remains slightly lower, indicating that domestic goods are still cheaper on an international basis. Continued reforms in fiscal policy, investment in infrastructure, and diversification away from primary commodities could sustain the recent rise and narrow the gap with its peers, reinforcing a more stable PPP conversion factor in the coming decade.
