⚠ OBSERVATION DATES DIFFER (2026-09 VS 2026-07). THE GAP MAY BE LARGER TODAY — THESE ARE NOT SIMULTANEOUS SNAPSHOTS.
THE DIFFERENCE
One of these economies has no trustworthy USD conversion, so the levels cannot be compared. The growth rates can: 4.7% against 1.5% a year.
⚠ NOT A WEALTH RANKING
"So the bigger number is the richer country?" No. Broad money counts deposits and currency outstanding, not wealth, not output and not purchasing power. A country can have a large money stock and a poor population, and the reverse. It is also not comparable to GDP, and the two series here are measured on different dates by different agencies.
