- Articles and reports: 75-001-X201100311529Geography: CanadaDescription:
This study examines the financial situation of individuals living in low-income families with at least one employed family member compared to low-income families with no employed family members and employed non-low-income families. It presents new findings from the Canadian Financial Capability Survey on the level of net worth, assets and debts, financial security and retirement preparation of these groups.
Release date: 2011-07-22 - 2. Family wealth across the generations ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X200311013102Geography: CanadaDescription:
This article examines the changes to family wealth during the economic boom of 1984 to 1999. In the absence of longitudinal data, changes in family wealth can be estimated using cohorts of 'similar' families from two points in time.
Release date: 2003-12-08 - 3. How to get ahead in life: some correlates of intergenerational income mobility in Canada ArchivedArticles and reports: 89-553-X19980014021Geography: CanadaDescription:
The focus of this chapter is on the extent and nature of intergenerational income mobility, that is the degree to which an individual's income (as an adult) is related to the income earned by his or her parents (during the individual's childhood). As such our analysis is related to the economic literature surveyed for example in Becker and Tomes (1986), and more recently by Björklund and Jäntti (1997). However, we follow Hill and Duncan (1987) in suggesting that distinguishing between the various components of a family's income provides a way of incorporating both economic and sociological explanations into an empirical model of income mobility.
