Analyst Opinion

The Wealth Management market in Saudi Arabia is experiencing significant growth and development.

Customer preferences:
Customers in Saudi Arabia are increasingly seeking professional wealth management services to help them manage and grow their assets. This is driven by a growing awareness of the importance of long-term financial planning and the desire to achieve financial security. Additionally, customers are looking for personalized and tailored investment solutions that meet their specific needs and goals. They are also demanding more transparency and accountability from wealth management providers, as well as access to a wide range of investment products and services.

Trends in the market:
One of the key trends in the Saudi Arabian wealth management market is the increasing adoption of digital technology. Wealth management firms are leveraging digital platforms and tools to enhance customer experience, streamline processes, and provide real-time access to investment information.

Additionally, the use of digital technology allows wealth management providers to reach a wider customer base and offer more cost-effective services. Another trend in the market is the growing demand for Sharia-compliant wealth management solutions. Saudi Arabia has a large Muslim population, and Islamic finance principles play a significant role in the country's financial system. As a result, there is a strong demand for wealth management products and services that are in line with Islamic principles. Wealth management firms are offering a range of Sharia-compliant investment options, including Islamic mutual funds, sukuk, and Islamic insurance products, to cater to this demand.

This initiative aims to diversify the country's economy and reduce its reliance on oil by developing various sectors, including finance and investment. As a result, there is a growing focus on attracting foreign investment and developing the local capital markets. This presents significant opportunities for wealth management firms to expand their operations and serve both domestic and international clients.

These include the country's strong economic fundamentals, such as its large and growing population, high levels of disposable income, and favorable business environment. Additionally, the government's efforts to promote financial literacy and investor education are driving the demand for wealth management services. Furthermore, the stability of the Saudi Arabian financial system and the presence of well-regulated capital markets provide a conducive environment for wealth management activities.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. The figures are based on gross revenues, assets under management, and user & advisor data of relevant services and products offered within the Wealth Management market.

Modeling approach / Market size:

Market sizes are determined through a combined top-down and bottom-up approach, building on a specific rationale for each market segment. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of key players, industry reports, third-party reports, publicly available databases, and survey results from primary research activities (e.g., the Statista Global Consumer Survey). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as: GDP, gross national income (GNI), consumer spending, total investment (% of GDP), high income (% of population), and number of high-net-worth individuals (HNWI). This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing are well suited for forecasting digital products and services due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption.

Additional notes:

The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change. The data is modeled using current exchange rates. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. In some cases, the data is updated on an ad hoc basis (e.g., when new, relevant data has been released or significant changes within the market have an impact on the projected development).
