Read more What we are hearing  in  the luxury space  The growth of wealth and the global luxury market are intertwined. In the 15 years running up to 2020, the world’s wealthy population grew in size almost continuously. As wealth grew, so too did the world of luxury. The coronavirus pandemic, however, has brought years of industry growth to a halt.  Ultra-high-net-worth owners of private jets, yachts, or art collections are different from one another. Private jet owners tend to be male, less wealthy and comparatively younger than the other two cohorts on account of many being in the business-building stage of their lives. Private yacht owners show the highest average net worth, while most art collectors are over 70 and show a much higher representation of  women, at 22%. The pandemic is changing the luxury habits of the wealthy.  The growth of online shopping and delivery, enabling luxury services to be provided in the privacy of the wealthy’s homes, will continue, while intangible assets – namely additional passports and on-demand healthcare – will remain a priority. To prosper in such times, luxury brands must be flexible, quick moving and as attentive as ever to the changing demands of their clientele.

Asia recorded the fastest rise in billionaire numbers in 2019, but North America recorded the most dynamic gain in wealth. The wealth, and the wealthiest in particular, have been expected to step up in this crisis.  Giving was in the form of non-monetary commitments or was made anonymously.  Wealth creation in the Middle East and Latin America and the Caribbean was subdued, with declines in overall Billionaire population.  Source: Wealthx Billionaire Census Regional Luxury Spotlight  New England:  Cape Cod & The Islands This month, we’re taking a closer look at the second home market spanning Cape Cod, Nantucket, and Martha’s Vineyard.  With demand at record highs in a widely non-leveraged seller community, pricing remains strong despite broader economic conditions.
