The Credit Suisse Research Institute second annual Global Wealth Report finds that Asia Pacific emerges as the key contributor of global wealth growth, accounting for 36% of all global wealth creation since 2000, and 54% since January 2010. Total global wealth has increased 14% from USD 203 trillion in January 2010 to USD 231 trillion in June 2011. Emerging markets remain the main wealth growth engine, with the fastest growth seen in Latin America, Africa and Asia. In the next five years, global wealth is expected to rise by 50% to USD 345 trillion and wealth per adult to increase 40% to reach USD 70,700, led by growth in emerging markets. The Report finds that emerging markets have considerable scope to increase personal wealth given their much lower ratio of net financial assets to income and a much lower debt-income ratio than found in mature economies. Aging is also expected to increase the demand for financial assets relative to real assets like housing.
