| Value | Year | |
|---|---|---|
| Latest | 0.8% | 2025 |
| Five years earlier | -7.92% | 2020 |
| Ten years earlier | 9.13% | 2015 |
| Highest | 29.63% | 1962 |
| Lowest | -21.95% | 1965 |
| Average since 2016 | 3.18% | 2016–2025 |
| First recorded | -7.47% | 1961 |
Over five years it is up 8.72 percentage points from -7.92% in 2020. Since 1961 it is up 8.27 percentage points from -7.47% in 1961.
In 2025, Dominican Republic's GNI per capita (annual % growth) fell 2.45 percentage points on 2024 (from 3.25% to 0.8%).
Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1995 to 2024), the average change was +0.02 percentage points and a typical year strayed about 5.29 percentage points from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.5 standard deviations below 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 37.1 percentage points in 1962 and the biggest yearly fall was 28.41 percentage points in 1965. 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 1% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.
Worked out from the yearly values above. How the checks work: standard deviation, z-scores and straight-line trends.
In 2025, Dominican Republic had the 73rd highest value of the 100 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.
