UBS Report Highlights India's Low Share of Financial Assets in Household Wealth
Global personal wealth grew by 10.8% in 2025, driven by strong financial markets and rising non-financial assets, according to the UBS Global Wealth Report 2026. However, India remains an outlier, with only about 26% of household wealth in financial assets, reflecting a continued reliance on property and physical assets. The report notes uneven wealth gains globally, with median wealth declining in many markets, highlighting disparities between the wealthiest and broader populations.
