About This Dataset

Richest Countries by GDP Per Capita PPP 2020
Countries ranked by GDP per capita (PPP, USD) in 2020, using World Bank figures for the 199 countries that reported that year. Luxembourg leads on 122,067, ahead of Singapore (102,117) and Ireland (97,677). GDP per person adjusted for purchasing power. Financial centres and countries with large non-resident workforces record high figures that do not translate into household income.

Luxembourg stood at 121,372 in 2019, so its figure rose by 695 over the year. 2019 was led by Macau, so the top place changed hands.
