List of countries by wealth equality

This is a list of countries by distribution of wealth, including Gini coefficients. Wealth distribution can vary greatly from income distribution in a country.
Higher Gini coefficients signify greater inequality in wealth distribution, with 0 being complete equality, whereas a value near 1 can arise in a situation where everybody has zero wealth except a very small minority.
It is a common misconception that Scandinavian countries have low wealth inequality. This is not true. These countries have low income inequality, meaning that the income is relatively equal for everyone. However, their wealth inequality is very high, meaning that a small minority of the people owns the vast majority of wealth.

List

The table below is for 2018. The GDP data is based on data from the World Bank. The population data is based on data from the UN. The Wealth Gini coefficients from 2008 are based on a working paper published by the National Bureau of Economic Research. The Wealth Gini numbers come from the Global Wealth Databook 2018 by Credit Suisse. Also the Gini Wealth coefficients for 2019 are shown.
