   How wealth is divided in the UK?

The poorest 50%, by contrast, own just 9%. More than that, for the UK as a whole, the WID found that the top 0.1% had share of total wealth double between 1984 and 2013, reaching 9%.

   Why is wealth inequality so high in the UK?

   How has household wealth changed in the UK?

   • Household wealth has grown in the UK and is very unequally held. These trends have been particularly stark since the financial crisis. Much of the gains in household wealth have been in rising financial asset prices (with associated increases in pension wealth) leading to a small shift in wealth shares towards the top of the wealth distribution.
