A Wealth Building Blueprint

The Promise of Traditional and New Pathways for Closing the Wealth Gap

Categories: Wealth Building

Wealth matters: it delivers material, psychological and societal benefits, not just for individuals and families, but also for communities and the nation. Yet building wealth is a persistent challenge for low- to moderate-income (LMI) Americans who continue to become less wealthy, not more. Wealth disparities in the US are consistent and growing, and the staggering size of the wealth gap reveals the accumulated effects of both economic realities, like stagnant wage growth, and systemic racism and gender discrimination.

With traditional pathways to wealth inaccessible to many, Commonwealth’s vision is to make wealth possible for everyone. We are pursuing a portfolio of wealth creation pathways where we see new opportunities for innovation that could have a sustainable impact on the income, race, or gender wealth gaps.
