Add article description

This is the list of countries by gross fixed capital formation (GFCP), formerly known as gross fixed investment. The list includes sovereign states and self-governing dependent territories based upon the ISO standard ISO 3166-1.

According to World Bank,[1] gross fixed capital formation (formerly gross domestic fixed investment) includes land improvements (fences, ditches, drains, and so on); plant, machinery, and equipment purchases; and the construction of roads, railways, and the like, including schools, offices, hospitals, private residential dwellings, and commercial and industrial buildings. According to the 1993 SNA,[2] net acquisitions of valuables are also considered capital formation.

The following table shows the most recent values as well as two previous ones at 5-year intervals (if available) of gross fixed capital formation, expressed in millions of constant 2015 US dollars[3] and as percentage of GDP,[4] based on data published by World Bank. Sorting is alphabetical by country code, according to ISO 3166-1 alpha-3.
