List of countries by male-to-female income ratio
The list of countries by man-to-woman income ratio sorts countries of the world according to the income ratio of men to women ( gender pay gap ). The data provided come from the index of gender-specific development , which is compiled annually by the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) as part of the human development index and is based on official data or calculations. The estimated gross national income (GNI) generated in a country per woman is calculated in relation to the GNI per man. In addition to the average employment of both sexes, this indicator is also influenced by the pay and productivity of the corresponding activities.
Worldwide, women had a higher income than men in only one country in 2017: In Burundi , East Africa, the ratio was 0.736.
Ranking (2017)
The following information on the respective gross national income (GNI) is calculated in international US dollars from 2011, adjusted for purchasing power in 2017:
country | Women: GNI per capita ( PPP- $ ) |
Men: GNI per capita ( PPP- $ ) |
Man / woman ratio |
