Mapped: Millionaire Migration

In 2024, the United Arab Emirates is projected to attract the most millionaires, while China and the UK are expected to lose a significant number of high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs). The UAE's focus on economic diversification, government investment, and attractive tax initiatives has made it a global economic powerhouse, drawing in wealthy individuals. On the other hand, China is experiencing an outflow of millionaires due to economic uncertainty and geopolitical tensions, with a record exodus expected in 2024. Similarly, the UK is anticipated to lose a substantial number of millionaires following Brexit, marking a shift from historically attracting wealthy families. The movement of millionaires has implications for job creation, investment, and economic growth in different countries, as highlighted by the Henley Private Wealth Migration Report 2024. This millionaire migration trend underscores the importance of policies and initiatives that attract high-net-worth individuals for economic development.

They give no explanation of the estimates.. Is there a qualitative theory on why the UK would lose something like 4 times the average it lost in every other post brexit year or is that a sign of some projection artifacts from a quantitative analysis projecting from the first weeks of 2024 or something?

I think the number of newly branded millionaires and people who held millionaire status but lost it would be equally important for this data to be interesting.
