Wealth in the Brazil: Sizing the Market Opportunity
SummaryIt is a torrid time for the Brazilian wealth market. The country is in the depths of an enduring economic recession; with no immediate end in sight growth in the Brazilian wealth market is set to slow noticeably. Underlying this is deceleration in growth of the retail savings and investments market; equities in particular have plummeted thanks to the ongoing poor performances of the Bovespa since 2013. With such uncertainty, it is no surprise that local HNW individuals choose to hold almost 20% of their portfolio overseas. Yet Brazil is tightening up on offshore holdings, with individuals now required to report foreign assets and wealth over $100,000 to the Brazilian central bank.
Key Findings
- Affluent individuals represent just 1% of the Brazilian population but hold 94% of the country’s liquid assets.
-Â Deposits and mutual funds dominate the retail savings and investments market, accounting for 88% of the market.
-Â Growth in the retail savings market is slowing considerably thanks to considerable economic uncertainty. Deposits are forecast to grow by just 2.9% from 2015 to 2019, compared to 9.4% between 2010 and 2014.
-Â Brazilian HNW investors hold 24% of their assets in alternative, commodity, and property assets, with local hedge funds accounting for the vast majority of this.
-Â The economic situation is leading to notable changes in the tax regime, with capital gains tax and inheritance tax rates increasing, as well as the mooted introduction of a financial transaction tax. Brazil is also introducing a tax amnesty for offshore assets.
