Income from capital was the main source of annual household income for the top percentile of earners in Israel during 2021. That year, earnings from capital reached 3.1 million Israeli shekels on average, about 818,000 U.S. dollars, which represented about 66 percent of annual income. Over the period observed, capital income grew significantly, peaking in 2017 at 4.6 million Israeli shekels, about 1.2 million U.S. dollars. The 2017 spike was due to a government decision to implement a one-time tax incentive to release "trapped" capital gains taxes. On the other hand, employment income accounted for almost 28 percent of household earnings among the wealthiest in the country.
