Rwanda's GNI per capita, as measured by the World Bank, has experienced significant growth over the past six and a half decades. Since its inception in 1962, the country's economic output per capita has risen from a mere $40.00, reaching an all-time high of $1,128.00 in 2025, placing it at the 180th position globally. This upward trend was punctuated by a low point of $30.00 in 1964, marking the beginning of Rwanda's economic development. Notably, Rwanda's GNI per capita surpassed that of its peer countries like Togo, where the figure stood at $1,148.00, in 2025. Rwanda's rapid growth is a testament to its post-conflict reconstruction efforts, which have led to significant economic progress. However, this trajectory may be disrupted by potential shifts in global economic conditions, regional conflicts, or domestic policy changes that could impact Rwanda's economic growth and stability.
