Czech Wealth Report
The Czech Republic has seen a notable increase in its overall net wealth since 2017, but this growth decelerated from 2021, reflecting broader international economic patterns.
The country's wealth structure is characterized by a higher ratio of real assets, a lower share of life insurance and pensions, and a skewed wealth distribution. As we approach 2030, trends indicate a shift towards younger, more digitally engaged wealth holders, including a greater proportion of women, presenting new challenges for wealth management strategies.
Key insights from the report include:
• Wealth Growth and Structure in the Czech Republic: The nation is gradually bridging the wealth gap with Western Europe, though this process is expected to span several decades.
• In the Czech Republic, there is a notable emphasis on real assets over financial wealth, aligning more closely with Western European trends than those of Eastern Europe.
• The proportion of life insurance and pensions in financial wealth is relatively low, indicating limited integration in the broader economy.
• The middle class in the Czech Republic is not yet fully established, with wealth predominantly concentrated in the highest and lowest income brackets. However, a slow shift towards a more balanced distribution is being observed.
• Future Trends (2030): An increase in digitally literate, younger wealth holders, including a larger percentage of women, is predicted. This necessitates proactive adjustments by wealth managers to remain competitive.
