Abstract: Let $(G_n,X_n)$ be a sequence of finite transitive permutation groups with uniformly bounded number of generators. We prove that the infinitely iterated permutational wreath product $\mathrm{...}wr{G}_{2}wr{G}_1$ is topologically finitely generated if and only if the profinite abelian group $pro{d}_{ngeq1}{G}_n/G{\text{'}}_n$ is topologically finitely generated. As a corollary, for a finite transitive group $G$ the minimal number of generators of the wreath power $Gwr\mathrm{...}wrGwrG$ ($n$ times) is bounded if $G$ is perfect, and grows linearly if $G$ is non-perfect. As a by-product we construct a finitely generated branch group, which has maximal subgroups of infinite index, answering [2,Question 14].
