What is the per capita GDP of Japan?

Japan's GDP per capita is $39,300 (20 18).

According to the data, there are 2 1 developed countries in the world, accounting for 60% of the global GDP. The GDP standard of developed countries is $20,000 per capita. In 20 18, Japan's per capita GDP reached 40,000 USD, ranking 24th in the world. Although Japan is located in East Asia, it is also a member of the western rich club and G7, and the degree of development can be imagined.

At present, there are 2 193 countries and regions in the world, including 2 in Asia (Japan and South Korea), 2 in North America (USA and Canada), 2 in Oceania (Australia) and 5 in Europe (mainly EU countries). In addition to per capita GDP, the standards of developed countries also include medical care, social security and many other aspects. The per capita GDP of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates and other countries has already exceeded 20,000 US dollars, but it is not a developed country because of its single economic development, incomplete industrial system and weak scientific and technological innovation.

Extended data On the surface, Japan's per capita GDP is only 40,000 US dollars (ranked 24th in the world), which is not only far from the US's per capita GDP of 62,500 US dollars (ranked 7th), but also exceeds that of Germany, Canada, Britain, France and other established developed countries. However, if we only look at the per capita GDP data, it is still not very scientific. We should comprehensively analyze Japan's strength.

First of all, Japan is an export-oriented economy, and its foreign investment ranks second in the world after the United States for many years. Therefore, Japan also has an "asset Japan" overseas, with the total overseas assets exceeding 10 trillion US dollars, of which the net assets are close to 3 trillion US dollars, ranking first in the world for many years. In other words, we can't just look at the per capita GDP of the Japanese economy. If the income from Japanese overseas investment is added, Japan's per capita GNP will rank higher in the world.
