Accounting for Wealth Inequality Dynamics: Methods, Estimates and Simulations for France (1800-2014) (2017, unknown): “Long-run top wealth shares have also been constructed for Sweden by Roine and Waldenström (2009) using both inheritance registers since the early 19th century and annual wealth tax data since the early 20th century (when Sweden introduced an annual wealth tax).”
Intergenerational Mobility and Preferences for Redistribution (2018, methodology): “Technical work on the measurement of mobility is done by Niehues and Peichl (2014).4 Intergenerational mobility in Sweden has been studied by Roine and Waldenström (2009), Björklund, Roine, and Waldenström (2012), and Waldenström (2016).”
Intergenerational Top Income Mobility in Sweden – Capitalist Dynasties in the Land of Equal Opportunity? (2012, unknown): “In a recent survey of the Swedish household wealth concentration, Roine and Waldenström (2009) show that significant shares of wealth owned by the richest Swedes may be placed in off-shore locations.”

Inheritance and wealth inequality: Evidence from population registers (2018, result): “…SEK 2 million (USD 300,000).11 The top percentile share accounts for almost 18 percent of the total estate wealth, and the top decile accounts for more than 55 percent, which are levels that are largely consistent with those of previous wealth distribution studies (Roine and Waldenström 2009).”
A Monstrous Hybrid: The Political Economy of Housing in Early Twenty-first Century Sweden (2013, background): “…the largest personal asset class in Swedish society, having accounted consistently for about 45 per cent of total wealth since the mid-1970s (Roine and Waldenström 2009: 168); the extravagant property price inflation of the 1980s and 2000s clearly benefited existing owners alone; and…”
