- data is not very timely- it is only released quarterly
- Revisions can change historical figures measurably (the difference between 3% and 3.5% GDP growth is a big one in terms of monetary policy)
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) classifies countries into three economic groups based on their income levels: low-income, middle-income, and high-income countries. Low-income countries have a gross national income (GNI) per capita of $1,045 or less, middle-income countries are further divided into lower-middle-income (GNI per capita between $1,046 and $4,095) and upper-middle-income (GNI per capita between $4,096 and $12,695), while high-income countries have a GNI per capita of $12,696 or more. This classification helps in tailoring economic policies and financial assistance programs.
The four criteria are:Low income countries had GNI per capita of US$1,026 or less.Lower middle income countries had GNI per capita between US$1,026 and US$4,036.Upper middle income countries had GNI per capita between US$4,036 and US$12,476.High income countries had GNI above US$12,476.However I have also hear the definition as - Kofi Annan, former Secretary-General of the United Nations, defined a developed country as follows: "A developed country is one that allows all its citizens to enjoy a free and healthy life in a safe environment."If you look up most of the GDP's in these countries they are relatively low. There are other factors but that is the most obvious one.
Gross National Income (GNI) comprises the total value k produced within a country (i.e. its Gross Domestic Product), together with its income received from other countries (notably interest and dividends), less similar payments made to other countries. For example, if a British-owned company operating in another country sends some of its income (profits) back to UK, the UK's GNI is enhanced. Similarly, the repatriation of profit from a US-owned company operating in the UK will count towards US GNI, but not count towards UK GNI.

TRIAD is a cluster of countries which account for over 50% of the world GDP (Gross Domestic Product) while only accounting for 8% of the world's population. The GNI (Gross National Income) of the TRIAD countries is about 48% of the world's GNI. The TRIAD countries include the NAFTA, the European Union and the industrialized Eastern Asia (Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Singapore).
A measure of the wealth earned by nations through economic activites all around the world. Gross National Income comprises the total value of goods and services produced within a country (i.e. its Gross Domestic Product), together with its income received from other countries (notably interest and dividends), less similar payments made to other countries. Also known as GNP. It can be calculated as follows : GNI = Gross Domestic Product + Net property income from abroad.
It is called GNI(GROSS NATIONAL INCOME)
Gross National Product (GNP) measures the total value of goods and services produced by a country's residents, regardless of where they are located. Gross National Income (GNI) includes income earned from abroad minus income earned by foreigners domestically. GNI is a more accurate measure of a country's economic performance as it reflects the total income generated by a country's residents. Both GNP and GNI are important indicators of a country's economic health and can impact factors such as investment, trade, and overall economic growth.
