Section 5 - Indicators for Large Emerging Economies

Charts 5.1 through 5.7 provide a broad overview of basic economic indicators for large emerging economies.

Charts 5.1-5.3 show population data in three varying ways: world population distribution, age composition of the population, and dependency ratios. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) comparisons are shown in chart 5.4 (GDP per capita) and chart 5.5 (GDP per employed person). Chart 5.6 presents labor force participation rates by sex. Chart 5.7 compares trade in goods as a percent of GDP.

All of these charts include the United States, which is used as a reference point, and five large emerging economies: Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, and the Russian Federation.
