Purchasing power parities and gross domestic product per capita in purchasing power standards, European countries, 2021–2023
Actual individual consumption per capita in Slovenia the same as in Portugal
Actual individual consumption per capita in purchasing power standards in Slovenia in 2023 was 15% lower than the EU-27 average. The gross domestic product per capita in purchasing power standards was at 92% of the EU-27 average, which is the highest value achieved for this indicator so far.
Nowcast published for 36 European countries
Eurostat published data on actual individual consumption (AIC) per capita and gross domestic product (GDP) per capita, expressed in purchasing power standards (PPS) for 2021–2023 and for 36 European countries.
AIC per capita in PPS slightly down, to 85% of the EU-27 average
Last year, Slovenia’s AIC per capita in PPS, which reflects the material well-being of households better than GDP per capita by considering goods and services actually consumed by individuals, was at 85% of the EU-27 average, 1 percentage point lower than a year earlier.
Among 36 European countries the highest AIC per capita in PPS was recorded in Luxembourg (36% above the EU-27 average), followed by Norway (24% above), and the Netherlands (19% above). The lowest AIC per capita was recorded in Albania (59% below the EU-27 average), followed by Bosnia and Herzegovina (58% below), and North Macedonia (51% below). Portugal reached the same value as Slovenia, with 85% of the EU-27 average.
The highest value of Slovenian GDP per capita in PPS was reached last year
The indicator GDP per capita in PPS, used as a measure of the country’s economic development, shows a similar position of countries regarding GDP per capita in PPS as well as AIC per capita in PPS; however, the differences between countries are much bigger in the case of GDP per capita in PPS. Regarding this indicator, first place among 36 European countries in 2023 belonged to Luxembourg (137% above the EU-27 average), followed by Ireland (113% above), Norway (71% above) and Switzerland (54% above).
The countries with the lowest GDP per capita in PPS were Albania, and Bosnia and Herzegovina (both 64% below the EU-27 average), followed by North Macedonia (59% below).
Slovenian GDP per capita in PPS amounted to 92% of the EU-27 average, which was 3 percentage points higher than in 2022. Since 2015, the value was increasing for five consecutive years, in 2020 and 2021 amounted to 88%, and then again started increasing until 2023, when it reached the highest level so far.
Close to Slovenia in terms of GDP per capita in PPS were Spain (9% below the EU-27 average) and Czechia (10% below the EU-27 average).
