24.12.2020 Oscar Stolper and Lukas Brenner are awarded with the Intergenerational Justice Prize 2020

Oscar Stolper and Lukas Brenner were awarded the Intergenerational Justice Prize 2020 for their study Mind the gap: inheritance and inequality in retirement wealth.

Prof. Dr. Stolper and Dr. Brenner were awarded the Intergenerational Justice Prize 2020 for their study Mind the gap: inheritance and inequality in retirement wealth. The prize is awarded by the Stuttgart-based Foundation for the Rights of Future Generations together with the London-based Intergenerational Foundation.

The work examines the impact of inheritances and gifts on the retirement savings of private households. Using detailed data from the Deutsche Bundesbank, it can be empirically proven for the first time that people who receive substantial inheritances are also significantly better off financially in old age.

We are very proud of this award - it rounds off a successful 2020!
