Vietnam is seeing a rise in high-net-worth individuals, with approximately 1,233 people possessing a net worth of $30 million or more. This segment is projected to grow by 59% between 2026 and 2031.

Driven by strong economic performance, including a GDP growth of 8.18% in the first half of 2026, investors are transitioning from traditional assets like gold, real estate, and bank deposits toward more sophisticated portfolios. This includes stocks, bonds, and fund certificates, increasing the demand for professional private wealth management services focused on strategic asset allocation and capital preservation.
