Statistics on the number of wealthy in Myanmar are scant, but Wealth-X estimated there were 40 UHNWIs in the country in 2013, a figure that would rise to approximately 307 by 2022.
Whether or not the pace of wealth creation is in line with these statistics, the volume of private wealth is clearly increasing. According to Credit Suisse’s Wealth Report, GDP per adult in 2018 was $2,023 compared with just $556 18 years earlier. Forbes has already clocked 10 billionaires from the Myanmar.
Given these figures, Myanmar Apex Bank could soon be joined by other banks offering premium or private banking services.
