Asia-Pacific Wealth Report 2008

The 2008 Asia-Pacific Wealth Report looks at the changes in the High Net Worth marketplace in the region.

The 2008 Asia-Pacific Wealth report highlights that 2007 was a transitional year that saw a sharp divergence between mature and emerging markets.

The Asia-Pacific region displayed resilience to the North American economic slowdown, buoyed by robust GDP growth and solid stock market performances. As a result, the region continued to accumulate wealth on an unprecedented scale.

For the third consecutive year, Asia-Pacific dominated the list of the world’s 10 fastest-growing markets for High Net Worth Individuals (HNWIs). The Report found that growth in Asia-Pacific economies, most notably India and China, attracted significant investment into the region. Moreover, diverse markets and the evolving behavior of HNWIs across the region present tremendous opportunities for wealth management providers worldwide.

While global economic conditions in the first part of 2008 also had an impact on the Asia-Pacific region, HNWIs are still optimistic about growth throughout the region, and are continually looking for new opportunities.
