摘要：This paper analyses the existence of an immigrant/native wealth gap by using household survey data for Luxembourg, Germany and Italy.

This gap persists even after controlling for demographic characteristics, country of origin, cohort and age at migration although cross-country differences exist in the Keywords: household, survey data, wealth gap, immigrants, distribution JEL Codes: D31, F22 immigration penalty.
