Thailand Nominal GDP, Index 2015 = 100

## What this measures

Thailand's gross domestic product in current local currency (World Bank NY.GDP.MKTP.CN) divided by its 2015 level, × 100. Written only for years that also have BIS credit data.

## Why it matters

Nominal GDP is the economy's income in money terms, the natural yardstick for debt: borrowers repay out of nominal income.

## How to read it

It includes inflation, so high-inflation economies show large numbers. Compare with the private credit index for the same country and year.

## What it does not say

It is not real growth. The newest year is a World Bank estimate for some countries and is revised.
