This report sizes the opportunity within Belgium's wealth market and analyzes the investment preferences, service requirements, and portfolio allocations of its HNW investors. The report is based on the analyst's annual Global Wealth Managers Survey.
The Belgian HNW market is dominated by professional and high-earning males, while female HNWs and inheritors also present a lucrative target market for wealth managers. With nearly a third of HNW wealth in Belgium unmanaged by professionals, the market offers significant growth potential. Offering a multi-service proposition underpinned by a proven ability to demonstrate returns will be key to tapping into demand. A burgeoning appetite for robo-advice coupled with increasing demand for alternative investments provide arguably the most significant growth opportunities for global wealth managers in the foreseeable future.
