Evidence

Indicative estimate

  • This is a historical 2005 Sweden household curve from the GC Wealth Project / LWS. It is useful for a fun broad comparison but should not be read as a current 2026 Swedish wealth distribution.
  • Private pension plans are unavailable in this harmonization, and the wealth concept is narrower than some comprehensive household-wealth surveys.
  • WORTH99 labels this route Indicative because of its age. Values below P50 receive only a below-median bound and WORTH99 does not extrapolate above P99.
