Austria

Austria's economy grew just +0.6% in real terms in 2025, yet its US$ GDP jumped 8.4% to US$579.5 billion, a gap explained mostly by exchange-rate and price effects rather than output. The ranking did not budge: Austria held 30th, between Singapore and Thailand.

Services account for 64.1% of output and industry 24.0%, with manufacturing contributing 15.2% and agriculture 1.3%. Inflation stood at 3.5%, unemployment at 5.6% and government gross debt at 81.4% of GDP. With 9.2 million people, Austria generates GDP per capita of US$62,930, 16th in the world, and 20th on a PPP basis. The economy is about the size of the Philadelphia, PA metro area.

It has grown 3.0 times in dollar terms since 2000, when it measured US$196.2 billion and ranked 23rd. The IMF projects GDP of US$701.5 billion by 2030, a +21% rise, with a forecast ranking of 33rd.
