Overview
Suriname's gdp per capita ppp stood at $22,303 in 2025, a rise of +$503 from 2024. The IMF projects $22,303 by 2025. Suriname ranked 90th globally.
Suriname's GDP per Capita PPP has shown a steady increase over the past 36 years, rising from 6,492.70 in 1990 to its all-time peak of 22,303.23 in 2025. The country's economic growth has outpaced that of its peers, such as Colombia, which ranked 89 globally in 2025 with a GDP per Capita PPP of 22,396.00. This upward trend is a notable shift from the early 1990s, when Suriname's economy was at its lowest point. Despite this progress, Suriname still lags behind other countries in the region, and its ranking at 90 globally in 2025 highlights areas for further improvement. To continue this positive trajectory, Suriname would need to maintain its economic growth rate, invest in human capital, and address any structural challenges that may hinder its development.
