However, while the real GDP in 2023 remains relatively unchanged from the 2015 levels, the doubling of nominal GDP highlights the need for a corresponding increase in incomes to maintain the same level of consumption as in 2015. In essence, this means that incomes must grow by 160%, in order to maintain the same level of consumption one did in 2015.
