The World Wealth Report 2022 market sizing model covers 71 countries, accounting for more than 98% of global gross national income and 99% of world stock market capitalization. We estimate the size and growth of wealth in various regions using the proprietary Capgemini Lorenz curve methodology. Using this methodology, we derive the macro level value of HNWI investable wealth annually. The two-stage model estimates total wealth by country and the distribution of this wealth across the adult population in that country. The Capgemini 2022 Global HNW Insights Survey questioned 2,973 HNWIs across 24 major wealth markets in North America, Latin America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific as broken down by region, age, gender, and wealth band, respondent demographics can be seen in the paragraph below.
The Global HNW Insights Survey was administered in January 2022 in collaboration with Aon, a firm with more than 20 years of experience in conducting private client and professional advisor interviews in the wealth management industry through its global Client Insight team. The 2022 survey covered HNWI investment behavior, channel preferences, value-added services, preference for emerging asset classes such as digital assets and ESG investments, and preference for WM providers. Of the total HNWIs surveyed, 30% belonged to the Tech-Wealth HNWI category. To arrive at global and regional values and ensure survey results represent the actual HNWI population, we use market- and region-level weightings based on the respective share of the global HNWI population. HNWI survey had diverse representation:
- by Wealth Band – $1-5MN: 21%, $5-30MN: 34%, $30MN+: 46%
- by Age Band – Under 40yrs: 47%, 40-59yrs: 42%, 60+yrs: 11%
