The 1% are getting even richer and it's not going to stop any time soon
The world's richest 1% of people will control close to two-thirds of all global wealth by the year 2030, according to report produced by the House of Commons library, the research arm of the UK's parliament.
The global elite currently control around 50% of wealth around the world, but that is likely to keep increasing, the Commons research, commissioned by Labour MP Liam Byrne, said.
If trends seen since the 2008 financial crash were to continue, the report notes, the so-called 1% will control 64% of global wealth in just 12 years time
