HOW TO READ THIS
Source and limitations
Wealth measure: Fiscal net holdings declared on income-tax returns; not measured household wealth or all-adult wealth
- Income-tax declarants are a selected tax-filing population, not all Brazilian adults or households.
- Tax declarations and fiscal valuations are not complete market-value household balance sheets.
- Average is derived from aggregate returns and declared net holdings, not a population median or percentile.
