Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/mscfpb/hnwi_asset) has announced the addition of the "HNWI Asset Allocation in Hong Kong 2014" report to their offering.

This report provides the latest asset allocations of Hong Kong HNWIs across 13 asset classes. The report also includes projections of the volume, wealth and asset allocations of Hong Kong HNWIs to 2018 and a comprehensive and robust background of the local economy.

In 2013, real estate was the largest asset class for Hong Kong HNWIs, with 34.8% of total HNWI assets, followed by business interests with 23.3%, equities with 17.9%, cash and deposits with 11.5%, fixed-income with 8.3%, and alternatives with 4.3%.

Real estate, equities and alternatives recorded growth at respective review-period rates of 87.4%, 82.2% and 60.7%.

Alternative assets held by Hong Kong HNWIs decreased during the review period, from 4.4% of total HNWI assets in 2009 to 4.3% in 2013. HNWI allocations to commodities increased from 1.1% of total assets in 2009 to 1.4% in 2013.

Over the forecast period, allocations in commodities are expected to decline to 1.0% of total HNWI assets by 2018, as global liquidity will tighten due to a forecast near-term drop in demand for raw materials from China.

In 2013, Hong Kong HNWI liquid assets amounted to US$ 391.9 billion, representing 37.7% of wealth holdings.
