Market Report, "HNWI Asset Allocation in the UAE 2015", published

* This report is the result of WealthInsight's extensive research covering the high net worth individual (HNWI) population and wealth management market in the UAE.
* The report focuses on HNWI performance between the end of 2010 and the end of 2014. This enables us to determine how well the country's HNWIs have performed through the crisis.

Report Highlights

* In 2014, real estate was the largest asset class for UAE HNWIs, with 23.9% of total HNWI assets. This was followed by equity with 23.7%, business interests with 20.0%, cash with 18.6%, alternatives with 10.5% and fixed-income with 3.4%.
* Real estate and equities recorded growth during the review period, at respective rates of 23.9% and 23.7%.
* The proportion of alternative assets held by UAE HNWIs decreased during the review period from 11.5% in 2010 to 10.5% in 2014. HNWI allocations to commodities decreased from 2.8% to 2.4% over the same period.
* WealthInsight expects allocations in commodities to decline over the forecast period to reach 1.9% of total HNWI assets by 2019, as global liquidity tightens due to a forecast near-term drop in demand for raw materials from China. This is expected to cause global commodity prices to flatten out.
* UAE HNWI liquid assets valued US$120.4 billion in 2014, representing 45.7% of total wealth holdings.
