in Size and Growth


 
19 March 2024
 
Asia- Pacific GDP is over twice that of the Americas, 4 times that of Europe and 10 times Africa. The largest Asian countries by GDP size all have reasonable Data Quality Ratings (Grades A-C), and data are likely to be believable, but all pan-region GDP data includes data of varying quality, so it is advised to review individual country data for a more detailed perspective.

Asia-Pacific countries accounted for over 70% of global GDP growth over the decade to 2023 and represented over 54% by Global GDP share. The Americas in comparison accounts for around 22%. The Future is Asian.
