UK forecast to suffer world's biggest exodus of millionaires in 2025: Report
UNITED KINGDOM, JUN 24 – The UK's millionaire exodus is driven by tax hikes and political changes, with 16,500 millionaires expected to leave in 2025, the largest outflow globally, says Henley & Partners.
- Henley & Partners' 2025 report forecasts that 142,000 millionaires will relocate globally, with the UK losing 16,500 millionaires, the highest outflow worldwide.
- This exodus follows UK tax regime changes since 2022, including the closure of the Tier 1 investor visa and increased capital gains and inheritance taxes in 2024.
- The departing UK millionaires mainly work in financial and professional services, and many are foreign-born, seeking more stable governments and favorable tax conditions elsewhere.
- The UAE is set to attract 9,800 millionaires with $63 billion in assets, while the US expects 7,500 newcomers representing $43.7 billion, highlighting tax and stability as key attractors.
- This migration trend signals shifts in global wealth distribution, with the UK uniquely facing significant departures amid limited inbound options, while nations like the UAE and US gain high-net-worth individuals.
