Rasmus Landersø Explains New Estimates of Social Mobility 

HCEO member Rasmus Landersø of the Rockwool Foundation explains a new way to measure social mobility across generations. It’s based on how parents use expectations of future income to decide how to invest in their children. By this measure, analysis of Danish income data shows we have been overestimating social mobility. Economic outcomes are more similar for individuals and their parents than previously found.
