Wealth in France: Sizing the Market Opportunity 2016; Sizing the wealth market in France and its growth potential.
SummaryGrowth in France’s retail savings and investment market will be dampened by a faltering economic recovery and a weaker stock market performance. Economic and political challenges continue to reverberate in the development of the affluent market, with lower growth forecast in both individuals and assets to 2020.
Key Findings
-Â Affluent individuals account for 17.5% of the French adult population and hold 80.6% of liquid assets. This wealth distribution is similar to other developed economies. The proportion of affluent individuals among the French adult population is expected to increase by 2 percentage points by 2020.
-Â Slow but steady growth is forecast in the French retail savings and investments market (2.2% compound annual growth rate to 2020). Lower growth rates are anticipated across all asset classes due to continuing economic and political struggles.
-Â Deposits dominate the retail savings and investments market, accounting for just under 70% of liquid assets. They are forecast to be the main driver of growth to 2020 as a result of their ongoing status as a safe haven.
-Â Investment in illiquid assets has increased significantly. In 2016, they constitute over 30% of a typical HNW portfolio. Real estate investment trusts are the most important type of investment in this field.
-Â Offshore investments account for just over 14% of HNW assets. These are primarily driven by the desire for tax efficiency, but concerns over local political stability are also significant.
