PPP conversion factor, households and NPISHs Final consumption expenditure (LCU per international $) by country

What this measures

The purchasing power parity (PPP) conversion factor is a currency conversion factor and a spatial price deflator. They convert different currencies to a common currency and, in the process of conversion, equalize their purchasing power by eliminating the differences in price levels between countries, thereby allowing volume or output comparisons of gross domestic product (GDP) and its expenditure components. This conversion factor is for households and NPISHs Final consumption expenditure and the base currency is the US dollar.

Limitations: Global PPP estimates provided by ICP are produced by the ICP Global Office and regional implementing agencies, based on data supplied by the national implementing agencies in the participating economies, and in accordance with the methodology recommended by the ICP Technical Advisory Group and approved by the ICP Governing Board. As such, these results are not produced by participating economies as part of their national official statistics.

Each country's latest available year is shown; countries report on different schedules, so compare years before comparing values.
