HNWIs possess substantial financial assets and investments, typically exceeding a specific threshold. The rise in the number of wealthy individuals is fueled by economic growth, greater investment opportunities, and higher earnings in sectors such as technology and finance, resulting in significant wealth accumulation. Trust and corporate services help these individuals manage and protect their assets, optimize tax strategies, and ensure efficient estate planning and succession management. For instance, in July 2024, according to UBS Group AG, a Switzerland-based investment bank and financial services company, the average wealth per adult in the United States grew by nearly 2.5%, a rate comparable to Norway and approximately one-third of the growth seen in Mainland China. Turkey notably experienced a remarkable growth of over 157% in wealth per adult between 2022 and 2023.
