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 (for 2023) as well as three previous ones (if available) of gross fixed capital formation, expressed in millions of current US dollars[3] and as percentage of GDP,[4] based on data published by World Bank.
