G20 Economists Call for Global Panel to Tackle Historic Wealth Inequality

Over 500 leading economists have urged the G20 to create a permanent international body tasked with monitoring and addressing extreme wealth concentration. They cite new research showing the richest 1% have taken 41% of the world’s new wealth since 2000—a trend experts say threatens democratic stability and sustainable growth. Proposals include coordinated tax reforms and data collection to ensure a fairer global economy, with the panel’s creation seen as a critical step toward balanced policy action.
