Wealth inequality: the full datasets

In 'Wealth Inequality in New Zealand', a working paper for the Institute for Governance and Policy Studies, myself and my co-authors, Geoff Rashbrooke and Albert Chin, examine the distribution of wealth in 2014-15 and 2017-18. The working paper presents the data in some depth, but inevitably, for reasons of concision, we have not been able to include all of our original data, generated in conjunction with Statistics New Zealand.

Instead, our original datasets are available as Google Docs through the links below. Any queries concerning them can be addressed to me using the contact details in the footer.

1. Wealth shares and boundaries

2. Upper-end wealth

3. Ownership of different assets, broken down by five groups

4. Ownership of different assets, broken down by deciles
