Zoomable Statistic: Select the range in the chart you want to zoom in on.
Net personal wealth is the total value of non-financial and financial assets (housing, land, deposits, bonds, equities, etc.) held by households, minus their debts. The personal or household sector - in the national accounts sense - includes all households and private individuals (including those living in institutions), as well as unincorporated enterprises whose accounts are not separated from those of the households who own them.
The base unit is the individual (rather than the household) but resources are split equally within couples.
