Scope

- The affluent population in Canada will consistently expand over the forecast period, with growth strongest among the $10m+ category.
- Over half of onshore liquid retail savings and investments is in the hands of mass affluents, and is thus exposed to credit risk, as these investors have often taken on considerable mortgage debt in Canadas heated major cities.
- After dragging down growth in retail wealth in 2015, equity assets boosted growth in 2016 along with mutual funds, although this will not persist.
- While Canadians do not offshore substantial portions of their wealth, investing in China is attractive - unsurprising given Canadas strong links to the country.
