G7 vs BRICS G7 — about $55.3 trillion 🇺🇸 United States: $32.38T 🇩🇪 Germany: $5.45T 🇯🇵 Japan: $4.38T 🇬🇧 United Kingdom: $4.26T 🇫🇷 France: $3.60T 🇮🇹 Italy: $2.74T 🇨🇦 Canada: $2.51T BRICS (11 members) — about $35.2 trillion 🇨🇳 China: $20.85T 🇮🇳 India: $4.15T 🇷🇺 Russia: $2.66T 🇧🇷 Brazil: $2.64T 🇮🇩 Indonesia: $1.54T 🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia: $1.39T 🇦🇪 UAE: ~$0.62T 🇿🇦 South Africa: ~$0.48T 🇪🇬 Egypt: ~$0.43T 🇮🇷 Iran: ~$0.30T 🇪🇹 Ethiopia: ~$0.20T Since the October 2023 post, G7 nominal GDP rose from $45.9T to about $55.3T and expanded BRICS from $30.8T to about $35.2T. The dollar gap therefore widened, mainly because of US growth. In purchasing-power-parity terms the picture is reversed: IMF figures for 2025 put BRICS at about 40.5% of world output versus 28.3% for the G7.
