Hong Kong Wealth Management Market Sizing and Opportunities to 2026
Description
Hong Kong Wealth Management Market Sizing and Opportunities to 2026
Summary
Hong Kong’s affluent segment (including HNWs and mass affluents) accounted for 51.2% of the total population and held 94.7% of the country’s total onshore liquid assets in 2021. Despite the economic recovery in 2021, resurgence of the virus and Chinese regulatory crackdown hampered the performance of the flagship Hang Seng index. As a result, affluent individuals’ liquid assets are predicted to have risen by a moderate 2.3% in 2021, while the liquid assets of HNWs grew by 5.1%. Deposits account for the largest share of the Hong Kong retail savings and investment portfolio, constituting nearly 70% of the overall balances. Between 2022 and 2026, we expect the retail savings and investments market to record a CAGR of 4.0%. This will mainly be driven by equities, which are forecast to expand at a CAGR of 6.6% over 2022-26. Robo-advice accounts for 4.8% of the Hong Kong HNW portfolio. Nevertheless, the market for robo-advisory services is growing in the HNW space in Hong Kong, with multiple wealth managers entering the space.
Based on our proprietary datasets, GlobalData’s “Hong Kong Wealth Management: Market Sizing and Opportunities 2026” report analyzes Hong Kong's wealth and retail savings and investments markets. This includes overall affluent market size (both by number of individuals and the value of their liquid assets). The report also provides analysis of the factors driving liquid asset growth, including a breakdown and forecast of total retail savings and investments split by asset classes including equities, mutual funds, deposits and bonds.
