Overview
Peru's gdp per capita ppp stood at $18,980 in 2025, a rise of +$1,178 from 2024. The IMF projects $18,980 by 2025. Peru ranked 102nd globally.
Peru's GDP per capita in terms of purchasing power parity (PPP) has undergone a significant transformation over the past 46 years, with the country's economic growth largely influenced by its natural resource endowments and trade policies. The all-time low of $2,988.10 in 1980 reflects the economic stagnation and instability of the era, whereas the current GDP per capita of $18,980.19 in 2025 marks a substantial improvement, although still ranking 102nd globally. When compared to peer countries, Peru's performance is comparable to that of Botswana, with a GDP per capita of $19,053.10, suggesting that Peru's economic growth has been relatively stable in recent years. However, the country's economic trajectory remains vulnerable to fluctuations in global commodity prices and trade policies, which could potentially alter the current trend. A significant shift in economic policy or a sustained increase in investment in human capital and infrastructure could potentially propel Peru's GDP per capita to join the ranks of higher-income countries.
