Prosperity is once again gaining popularity among a larger number of individuals.
In a significant shift, a recent survey conducted by the market research company GfK, on behalf of private equity specialist RWB, has revealed an increase in the desire for a high private fortune among Germans for the first time since 2017. This reversal of a yearly downward trend in wealth aspiration is noteworthy.
The survey, which gathered statements from 1,010 local adults aged 18 to 74, found that half of the respondents perceive a million euros, including real estate, as the threshold for wealth. This figure underscores the ambitions of the German population in terms of financial success.
Interestingly, the survey also showed a decrease in the number of people who believe that the COVID-19 crisis will negatively impact wealth accumulation compared to the previous year. This suggests that the pandemic has not deterred people's desire for a high private fortune in Germany.
RWB, a private equity specialist in Germany, conducts similar surveys annually. The latest findings indicate a positive reassessment of the chances of actually achieving the desired high fortune in recent times.
GfK, a renowned market research company that conducts surveys on behalf of various clients, carried out this survey. The results underscore a current trend in wealth aspiration in Germany, providing valuable insights into the financial ambitions of the German population.
The survey's findings reveal that a considerable number of respondents are actively pursuing wealth-management strategies, as they view a million euros, including real estate, as the benchmark for wealth (personal-finance). Furthermore, the decrease in the number of people who believe the COVID-19 crisis will negatively impact wealth accumulation indicates an ongoing interest in wealth growth within the context of other financial concerns (finance).
