Points clés à retenir
The UBS report defines net worth or “wealth” as “the value of financial assets plus real assets (principally housing) owned by households, minus their debts.” The report also highlighted the “currency effect,” which significantly influences wealth growth. Local currency growth figures for wealth often differ substantially from those calculated in dollar terms, impacting the overall perception of wealth growth.
