Ah HNWI, or as we common folk call them, Those Who Swim in Gold Coins Like Scrooge McDuck! High Net-Worth Individuals are the financial unicorns of the world, having made or inherited impressive fortunes.
What on Earth is a HNWI? ๐๐ธยง
A High Net-Worth Individual (HNWI) is someone sitting atop a majestic pile of money. Think of HNWIs as financial wizards mastering their economic destinies, often owning very high net incomes, very large net assets, or both. While definitions may vary, policy-makers from the UK peg this kind of wealth at ยฃ300,000+ per year, and our friends across the pond in the USA casually mention a cool $1M in liquid assets.
