66.6% of the total equity corresponds to movable capital, such as shares, public debt or deposits in bank accounts and represents 17,484 million.

The real estate market is the second favourite option and accounts for just over a quarter of total assets at 6,905 million and art and antiques increased from 2.8 to more than 6 million in 2019.

300 more people filed compared to 2018, that's an increase of 3.8%, which is lower than the 8.7% growth in declared assets.
