Yearly data from 1972 to 2024, from the World Bank.
Denmark's revenue, excluding grants (current LCU) was 1.12 trillion in 2024, the latest year in the World Bank's World Development Indicators. That is up 35.14% from 829.23 billion in 2014 (3.06% a year on average, compounded).
| Value | Year | |
|---|---|---|
| Latest | 1.12 trillion | 2024 |
| Five years earlier | 916.32 billion | 2019 |
| Ten years earlier | 829.23 billion | 2014 |
| Highest | 1.12 trillion | 2024 |
| Lowest | 53.19 billion | 1972 |
| Average since 2015 | 930.26 billion | 2015–2024 |
| First recorded | 53.19 billion | 1972 |
Over five years it is up 22.29% from 916.32 billion in 2019 (4.11% a year on average, compounded). Since 1972 it is up 2,007% from 53.19 billion in 1972 (6.04% a year on average, compounded).
In 2024, Denmark's revenue, excluding grants (current LCU) rose 7.8% on 2023 (from 1.04 trillion to 1.12 trillion).
Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1994 to 2023), the average change was +3.7% and a typical year strayed about 4.4% from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.9 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 16.4% in 1978 and the biggest yearly fall was 6.4% in 2009. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2015 to 2024 the straight-line trend is upward, about 37.27 billion a year. A straight line explains 94% of the movement over 10 observed years.
Worked out from the yearly values above. How the checks work: standard deviation, z-scores and straight-line trends.
In 2024, Denmark had the 37th highest value of the 91 economies reporting that year. Higher is not always better: for some indicators the lowest value is the one to aim for. See the full ranking.
Revenue is an increase in net worth resulting from a transaction. Grants are excluded from this figure. This indicator is expressed in current prices, meaning no adjustment has been made to account for price changes over time. This series is expressed in local currency units.
Limitations: For most countries central government finance data have been consolidated into one account, but for others only budgetary central government accounts are available. Countries reporting budgetary data are noted in the country metadata. Because budgetary accounts may not include all central government units (such as social security funds), they usually provide an incomplete picture. In federal states the central government accounts provide an incomplete view of total public finance. Data on government revenue and expense are collected by the IMF through questionnaires to member countries and by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).
