(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq)
LONDON, May 12, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In 2019, Canada's ultra-wealthy population observed an increase in their share of wealth on account of high-performing equity and property markets. Between 2015 and 2019, growth was particularly pronounced in higher wealth bands. However, the pandemic brought the rapid HNW growth to an end. Canadian stock markets were characterized by heightened fluctuations because of falling consumer confidence in the country's economic performance amid state-induced social distancing restrictions. This resulted in the investor population turning to safe-haven investments to limit their risk exposure.
The Cana da W ealth Management Market Re search Report offered by GlobalData Plc focuses on the HNW segment. This includes overall affluent market size (both by the number of individuals and the value of their liquid assets) as well as a breakdown of liquid vs. illiquid HNW holdings. The report also provides an analysis of the factors driving liquid asset growth, including a breakdown and forecast of total retail savings and investments split by asset classes including equities, mutual funds, deposits, and bonds.
Key Highlights
- Deposits remained an attractive investment avenue for non-resident investors in the Canada wealth management market in 2020.
- In 2020, Canadian retail investors allocated a significant share of their wealth to property. As retail investors have a lower risk tolerance than more affluent investors, they prefer to focus on safer investments.
- Equities are the second most popular asset class as HNW investors take greater risk for greater reward during the downturn in the Canada wealth management market.
- The most preferred investment channel for Canadian investors across all three affluent classes is that of an investment advisory through a bank, with which they have an investment account.
- Better returns, investment product ranges, and tax efficiency are some of the key drivers for Canadian investors to offshore their wealth.

Canadian HNW investors diversify their wealth equally, with advisory mandates having a slight edge over others. While Canadian HNW investors distribute their wealth equally, half of the HNW wealth is invested with advisory and discretionary mandates in anticipation of better returns. This is good news for wealth managers, given that advisory and discretionary mandates attract a more loyal customer base and yield higher fee income.
