Household net wealth · Net wealth is the total value of a household's assets (real estate, bank deposits, financial assets, business equity, valuables) minus all liabilities (mortgages, consumer loans, other debt). Data from ECB Household Finance and Consumption Survey (HFCS) Wave 4, conducted by Banca d'Italia. Italy has one of the highest home-ownership rates in Europe (~73%), which significantly influences wealth distribution — most Italian household wealth is held in real estate rather than financial assets.
