The Greatest Wealth Transfer in History: Are Your Clients Prepared?
Over the next 20 years, we will witness the greatest wealth transfer in history, with $84 trillion in assets changing hands. This monumental shift primarily benefits Gen X, millennials, and Gen Z, who are set to inherit $72 trillion from baby boomers, with the remaining funds allocated to charity. This transfer is not just about numbers; it’s about the future of financial markets and investment strategies.
As financial advisors, it’s crucial to understand how these heirs might invest their newfound wealth. Will they stick to the traditional mix of stocks, bonds, cash, and real estate, or explore new investment opportunities? Notably, 75% of millennial and Gen Z investors believe that above-average returns cannot be achieved solely through traditional stocks and bonds. This suggests a shift towards more diverse and innovative investment strategies.
