Recent Distribution of Wealth in the World

Recent Distribution of Wealth in the World - what is this title? "Distribution of wealth" should be the title instead.

Pie chart of distribution?

I think this image could be quite useful in this article. It is set as the image on the Wikidata item about the subject. I think a pie chart of the global distribution can be quite relevant and useful and is currently missing.

Could you please check:

whether it's accurate (the source link is down; and the bottom 50% having 0.6% of wealth seems a bit off considering the bottom 50% wealth in the "Total US family wealth timeline" chart in the wealth concentration section)
whether you or somebody else could create an updated version or find it on / uploaded it to Commons if it's already out there somewhere
