Financial Advisory Market Growth Factors: What’s Supporting Expansion?
The expansion in the number of high-net-worth individuals (HNWI) is anticipated to fuel the future development of the financial advisory market. An individual possessing liquid assets of at least USD 1 million is categorized as a high-net-worth individual (HNWI). These wealthy individuals often seek assistance from financial advisors to manage their significant assets, aiming for greater benefits and prospects. For example, in August 2023, the Switzerland-based investment banking firm UBS Group AG reported that global wealth is expected to surge by 38% over the coming five years, reaching USD 629 trillion by 2027. This increase will largely stem from middle-income countries. By 2027, wealth per adult is projected to attain USD 110,270, the count of millionaires is predicted to climb to 86 million, and the populace of ultra-high-net-worth individuals (UHNWIs) is estimated to expand to 372,000. Consequently, the growing population of high-net-worth individuals (HNWI) is propelling the expansion of the financial advisory market.
