Brazil: Gross Value Added (GVA) at basic prices (current US$)

Key figures

What the numbers say

In 2025, Brazil's gross Value Added (GVA) at basic prices (current US$) rose US$83.33 billion on 2024 (from US$1.88 trillion to US$1.96 trillion).

Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1995 to 2024), the average change was +US$47.05 billion and a typical year strayed about US$206.02 billion from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.2 standard deviations above that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.

On record, the biggest yearly rise was US$452.15 billion in 2010 and the biggest yearly fall was US$563.73 billion in 2015. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.

From 2016 to 2025 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains 26% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.
