Slovenia's income share held by the bottom 10% of the population has remained relatively stable over the past three decades, fluctuating within a narrow range. The country's lowest point, 3.40%, was recorded in 2003, while the all-time peak of 4.50% occurred in 1987, preceding Slovenia's transition to a market-based economy. Since then, the income share of the bottom 10% has gradually risen to 4.10% in 2025, positioning Slovenia as the fourth country globally in this regard, narrowly behind Moldova's 4.38%. In comparison, India's 4.41% and Belgium's 3.80% are also notable. This gradual increase in income share suggests a reduction in income inequality in Slovenia, a trend that is expected to continue with further economic growth and social investment in education and job training. However, any significant changes in the country's economic policies or global economic shifts could impact this trajectory, potentially altering the distribution of income in Slovenia.
