National net wealth, also known as national net worth, is the total sum of the value of a country's assets minus its liabilities. It is the total value of net wealth possessed by the residents of a state at a set point in time. Figures in this article only cover household wealth, and exclude government wealth, which may be substantial, as in China, or negative, as in the UK or US, and so do not show total wealth.

National net wealth is an important indicator of a nation's ability to take on debt and sustain spending and is influenced not only by real estate prices, equity market prices, exchange rates, liabilities and incidence in a country of the population, but also by human resources, natural resources, and capital and technological advancements, which may create new assets or render others worthless in the future.

The most significant component by far among most developed nations is commonly reported as household net wealth or worth, and reflects infrastructure investment. National wealth can fluctuate, as evidenced in the United States after the Great Recession and subsequent economic recovery. During periods of strong equity market growth, the relative national and per capita wealth of countries where people are more exposed to those markets, such as the United States and the United Kingdom, tends to rise. On the other hand, when equity markets are depressed, the relative wealth of countries where people invest more in real estate and bonds, such as France and Italy, tends to rise.
