List of sovereign states by wealth inequality

This is a list of sovereign states by wealth inequality, including Gini coefficients. Wealth distribution can vary greatly from income distribution in a country.
Higher Gini coefficients signify greater wealth inequality, with 0 being complete equality, whereas a value near 1 can arise if everybody has zero wealth except a very small minority.
Countries that have high-quality wealth taxes and honest reporting from financial institutions, such as the Netherlands and Norway, tend to have more reliable wealth inequality statistics.
