Adjusted net national income (constant 2015 US$)

This economic metric provides a refined view of a nation’s income by accounting for the depreciation of fixed capital and the depletion of natural resources. By subtracting the value of consumption of fixed assets and losses from natural resource extraction, it offers a more accurate reflection of sustainable income that can be reinvested in future growth. This measure not only highlights the health of an economy but also emphasizes the importance of environmental stewardship and capital maintenance. It serves as a critical tool for policymakers and economists, aiding in the evaluation of a country’s progress toward sustainable development, and encouraging a balanced approach to economic and environmental health over time.
