UAE Net Wealth Forecast to Reach $6 Trillion by 2030
Boston Consulting Group projects the United Arab Emirates' net wealth will grow by over $2.3 trillion over the next five years to reach $6 trillion.
The net wealth of the United Arab Emirates is forecast to reach $6 trillion by 2030, according to the Global Wealth Report 2026 published by Boston Consulting Group. This represents an increase of more than $2.3 trillion over the next five years, driven by a compound annual growth rate of 10.6% in financial wealth and real assets.
While conflict with Iran has created short-term market volatility and geopolitical uncertainty, the report describes the region's wealth development as structurally resilient. This stability is supported by private capital activity, economic diversification, and sovereign wealth. The report also notes a shift in wealth concentration, predicting a rise in ultra-high-net-worth individuals alongside growth in the lower high-net-worth segment.
Boston Consulting Group highlights that artificial intelligence is reshaping the wealth management sector. The firm suggests that adopting AI-first operating models can significantly increase revenue and advisor capacity to meet growing demand.
