For hundreds of years, economists and social scientists have been interested in the question of global wealth. Over the last few decades, humanity has made great strides and traveled a long distance. Millions have been lifted out of terrible poverty while the world’s wealth has grown enormously. The World Bank estimates that from 37.8 percent in 1990 to 11.2 percent in 2014, the global poverty rate has decreased. The industrial revolution, which drastically altered human civilizations’ economies and social structures, was important in enabling men to take full advantage of global economic opportunities. Millions of individuals may now take advantage of economic possibilities that are hundreds of kilometres distant because to the technology revolution.
But every few years, the world is made aware of the flaws in its economic system. Due to the 2022 stock market crisis, economic unpredictability, growing inflation, and central banks’ reaction to it, billions of dollars were lost on the stock market, which led to a decline in worldwide wealth. Global family wealth was expected to experience its first “substantial reduction” since the 2008 financial crisis, according to a survey released earlier this year by Allianz.
Economic disparity has always been a concern for human communities, and it still is. As the 80-20, winner-take-it-all (or Pareto principle) seems to be nearly constantly at work when it comes to human wealth, it appears that pandemics, recessions, sickness, stock market collapses, and wars tend to make this situation worse.
On the one hand, there is a doomsday scenario that is prophesied by a number of market analysts nearly daily, who anticipate a severe recession to begin in 2023. On the other side, a recent analysis from Credit Suisse predicted that by 2026, there would be a stunning 40% increase in the number of millionaires in the globe.
Approximately 87.5 million people will have at least $1 million in wealth by 2026, up from 62.5 million in 2021, according to the survey.
