# Brazil → United States economic convergence

Indicator: GDP per capita (PPP) (constant 2021 international $)
Latest shared data: 2025
Brazil: $20,025
United States: $76,931
Brazil is at 26% of United States.

## Scenario

Brazil annual growth: 0.9% (trailing 10-year average)
United States annual growth: 1.8% (trailing 10-year average)

## Result

If Brazil grew 0.9% a year and United States 1.8% a year, Brazil would never catch up with United States on GDP per capita (PPP).
