T&T has been ranked sec­ond among the top ten wealthy Caribbean na­tions based on Gross Na­tion­al In­come (GNI), ac­cord­ing to a re­port by the World Bank.In its 2014 World De­vel­op­ment Re­port, the World Bank used the GNI to mea­sure the wealth of Caribbean na­tions. The in­for­ma­tion is da­ta of the bank's main cri­te­ri­on for clas­si­fy­ing economies, the gross na­tion­al in­come (GNI) per capi­ta.

It is al­so the sum of val­ue added by all res­i­dent pro­duc­ers, plus any prod­uct tax­es (less sub­si­dies) not in­clud­ed in the val­u­a­tion of out­put, plus net re­ceipts of pri­ma­ry in­come (com­pen­sa­tion of em­ploy­ees and prop­er­ty in­come) from abroad, ac­cord­ing to the World Bank.Ba­hamas grabbed the top spot with a GNI of $21,280.
