North America and the Middle East Lead in Growth

North America and the Middle East have both experienced the largest percentage increase in the number of millionaires since 2016, at +52% and +50% respectively.
According to Capgemini, factors like solid economic resilience, cooling inflationary pressures, and strong performance in the U.S. equity market contributed to North America’s growth.
