👀 How the World Economy Will Look in 2025

This chart lists the gross domestic product of top ranked economies in the world, and visualizes their share of the $115 trillion world economy.

Data is sourced from the International Monetary Fund’s estimates for 2025 (except for Pakistan). All figures are rounded and in nominal USD.

The U.S. has been the world’s largest economy for over 100 years, and in 2025 will maintain its lead at $30.3 trillion.

Second-largest China ($19.5 trillion) will also hold its position, now on a 15-year streak.

Both countries together will account for two-fifths of the world’s $115 trillion GDP.

Germany overtook Japan in 2024 to once again become the third-largest economy in the world.

Meanwhile India pipped the UK as 5th largest in 2020.

All three countries will retain their positions till 2026—when India is projected to pass Japan for fourth, and then Germany for third place in 2028.
