32、ed upturn in the world economy and climbing equity markets, billionaire wealth surged by 24% to a record level of $9.2trn and the billionaire population rebounded by 15% to 2,754 individuals, surpassing the previous peak of 2,473 in 2015. ALL REGIONS EXPERIENCED SIGNIFICANT GROWTH IN THEIR BILLIONAI
33、RE POPULATIONS. The billionaire population expanded at a healthy pace across all regions, with Asia-Pacific (+29%) the front-runner, ahead of the Americas (+11%) and EMEA (+9%). The total billionaire population in Asia now stands at 784 individuals, overtaking North America (727) for the first time.
34、 BILLIONAIRE WEALTH GREW AT A MUCH FASTER PACE THAN POPULATION SIZE IN ALL REGIONS. The wealth of Asia-Pacifics billionaires increased by almost 50%, a huge turnaround following modest falls in 2016. Asia-Pacific wealth outperformed that of the Americas (+22%) and EMEA (+12%). The significant growth
35、 in billionaire wealth globally was driven by strong equity market performance and relatively stable exchange rates against the US dollar. BILLIONAIRE PERFORMANCE DIFFERED SIGNIFICANTLY ON A COUNTRY LEVEL, WITH CHINA AND INDIA ACHIEVING THE FASTEST GROWTH RATES IN 2017. While the US remained the dom
36、inant force, six of the top ten countries recorded faster growth than the US in their respective billionaire populations, while four enjoyed a stronger pace of expansion in their collective billionaire wealth. The UK was the only country in the top 10 to experience both a decline in billionaire numb
37、ers and combined net worth. THE SHARE OF FEMALE BILLIONAIRES INCREASED. The number of female billionaires rose by 18% in 2017, outpacing the growth of 14.5% in the male billionaire population and increasing the female share of the global billionaire population to 11.7%. In addition, among the female
38、 billionaire population there has been a steady rise in the share whose net worth can be attributed both to inheritance and to self-made wealth creation, implying a greater degree of risk-taking entrepreneurialism. EDUCATION REMAINS THE TOP CHARITABLE CAUSE. Almost two-thirds of the billionaire popu
39、lation focused at least part of their philanthropic activity on education and more than a third of the billionaire population directed some of its giving towards health, public and social causes and to art and culture. THERE IS A GROWING TREND AMONG BILLIONAIRES TO GIVE MORE. The number of individua
40、ls (billionaires, or those who would be if not for their giving) who have signed the Giving Pledge has risen from 40 signatories based in the US in 2010 to 175 signatories in 22 different countries in April 2018. Wealth-X forecasts that the potential pledged value could be as high as $600bn by 2022.
41、 To Table of Contents 2 WEALTH-X BILLIONAIRE CENSUS 2018 INTRODUCTION The new edition of the Wealth-X Billionaire Census reveals there was a dramatic improvement in billionaire performance in 2017. There are now more billionaires than ever before, powered by a dynamic growth in the number of billion
42、aires in Asia (which, for the first time, overtook North America) and a vibrant technology sector. In a rapidly shifting geopolitical environment, the influence on the world economy of this most exclusive group of individuals is continuing to rise. In this report we explore the drivers behind this g
43、rowth, the power of financial markets and the impact of key political developments on billionaire net worth. We examine regional trends, from the rapid expansion of ultra wealth in Asia-Pacific to the more subdued growth in Europe, and highlight the substantial gains in net worth achieved by the wor
44、lds billionaires. We analyze the main asset holdings, industry concentration and sources of wealth in the billionaire population and again draw on our extensive knowledge base to rank the leading billionaire countries and cities of the world. The report also delves into the interests and passions of
45、 the worlds billionaire population, surveying the expansion of billionaire investment across the sporting landscape and a growing interest in art collection. We consider the powerful network effect among the worlds leading educational institutions for producing billionaires, and explore how growing
46、social pressures on the super affluent to contribute to society are driving changes in philanthropic behavior. We also look ahead to consider some of the implications for wealth creation in 2018 of a potential return to volatility in financial markets. Wealth-Xs comprehensive database of billionaire
