Overview
Rwanda's gdp ppp stood at $58.1B in 2025, a rise of +$5.2B from 2024. The IMF projects $58.1B by 2025. Rwanda ranked 125th globally.
Rwanda's GDP PPP has experienced a significant growth trajectory, with the country's economy expanding from approximately $2.14 billion in 1980 to $58.07 billion in 2025, a 26.9-fold increase over the 46-year period. The all-time low was recorded in 1994, following the devastating genocide that ravaged the nation, with a GDP PPP of $2.11 billion. The country's economic recovery was marked by a steady increase, outpacing its peers in Chad and North Macedonia. Rwanda's GDP PPP has surpassed that of Gabon, but lags behind Niger. The rapid growth observed in recent years suggests a robust expansion, driven possibly by investments in infrastructure and human development. However, a significant shift in global commodity prices, particularly in the coffee and tea sectors, which are crucial to Rwanda's economy, could alter the trajectory of its economic growth.
