It is estimated that these assets amount to hundreds of trillion dollars.
On April 23, according to Market Watch, global inequality is facing a difficult turnaround.
"If the current trend continues, by 2030, 1% of the world's super-rich will hold 66% of global assets." . The UK's Guardian reported that by 2030, 1% of the world's super-rich would hold assets of nearly $ 305 trillion. This figure is currently $ 140,000 billion.
Earlier this year, the Oxfam Board for Oxfam has published a report: The wealth of the eight billionaires combined equals 3.6 billion people (roughly half of the world's poor). ). It is noteworthy that the disparity of the rich and poor in the United States is far more serious than many European countries.
The World Inequality Lab, which is headquartered at the Paris Institute of Economics, also released an independent report this year, describing the apparent disagreement between the US and Western European countries over the issue. Unbalanced development. Another co-author of this report is French economist Thomas Piketty. In addition, the report points to the view that "the scale of the global middle class is shrinking."
When there is a gap between the rich and the poor, the phenomenon of unequal distribution of opportunities will also arise, manifesting most clearly in the field of education. In the United States, for example, among 100 children whose parents have 10% of the lowest income class, only 20-30 can attend college.
By 2030, 1% of the world's super-rich will hold two-thirds of global wealth
But if the parents are 10% of the highest income class, this number is 90 children. The survey also showed that when the elite schools opened the door for poor students, the educational achievement of the school was not so bad.
In addition, many in the super-rich world are giving their children inheritance. According to research published in 2017 by the Wealth-X Global Asset Management, by 2026, the net final wealth of wealth transferred to next generations will reach 3,900. billion USD.
