Assets

Long-lasting things that people (or organisations) own, which they can use to make money.

Many assets are shares of large companies.

Another big one is property portfolios - it’s common for large asset owners to have many houses, as well as offices, malls, and factories.

Example:
Property makes up 48.5% of all the assets in Aotearoa.

Half of assets in Aotearoa are owned by the top 10% wealthiest people.
