Total personal offshore wealth grew by 6% to reach US$8.2 trillion in 2017.
US$2.3 trillion (28%) of this was managed in Switzerland. The top three offshore centres: Switzerland ($2.3 trillion), Hong Kong ($1.1 trillion) and Singapore ($0.9 trillion) made up more than half (52%) of the total.
If past trends continue, Hong Kong and Singapore will eventually surpass Switzerland. Over the last five years annual growth rates in Hong Kong (+11%) and Singapore (+10%) have outstripped Switzerland’s (+3%).
