Top 0.001% holds three times more wealth than poorest half of humanity – report
A tiny elite controls vast economic power while billions are struggling to survive, according to the World Inequality Report
Global inequality remains at “extreme” levels, with fewer than 60,000 multi-millionaires, the top 0.001%, now controlling three times more wealth than the bottom 50% of humanity combined, according to the World Inequality Report 2026.
Compiled by more than 200 researchers and published on Wednesday, the study says the disparity is reflected across all categories, as the richest tenth of the world’s population now owns close to three-quarters of all wealth, while the poorest half holds barely 2%.
Income is split in a similar way. The top 10% earn more than the remaining 90% put together, while the poorest half capture less than a tenth of global income.
“The result is a world in which a tiny minority commands unprecedented financial power, while billions remain excluded from even basic economic stability,” the authors wrote.
According to the research, a gender pay gap “persists across all regions,” with women capturing just over a quarter of global labor income, a share that has barely moved since 1990.
