The ILC-UK is extremely grateful to its partners in this project: * Norwich Union whose generous support made this research possible. * NatCen, who undertook the analysis for this research. Key findings of the research include: * Around 2.5% of the population receive an inheritance each year, and the average amount of inheritance received has doubled in less than a decade. * Older age groups are both more likely to receive an inheritance and for it to be of higher value. * Higher socioeconomic groups are more likely to receive an inheritance and there is some indication that the amount they receive is also larger. * Among older groups, wealthier individuals also report a higher expectation of receiving an inheritance in the future.
