As expected, Russia experienced a massive billion-dollar migration in the last six months, with a total projection of 15,000 by the end of 2022 – 15% larger than its HNWI population and 9,500 over 2019.

From Hong Kong, the departure of HNWI continues unabated at a slower pace, with a total exit of 3,000 million by 2022 (a 29% decrease compared to 2019). Brazil’s billion-dollar migration is steadily growing with the total outflow of 2,500 HNWI predicted – an increase of 79% compared to 2019.
Relocation of wealth is beginning to hurt China, with a total exit of 10,000 HNWI expected by 2022, says Henley and Partners.
