1. Market insights

Millionaire population growth & HNWI trends

Italy's high-net-worth individual (HNWI) population has shown remarkable resilience and growth despite global economic uncertainties. As of early 2025, italy hosts approximately 322,000 dollar millionaires, representing a 5.8% increase from 2023 figures. Ultra-high-net-worth individuals (uhnwis) with assets exceeding €30 million number approximately 2,700, making italy the 10th largest UHNWI population globally.

Milan and lombardy remain the epicenter of wealth, hosting 35% of the country's millionaires, followed by rome (19%), turin (8%), and florence (7%). Notably, there has been significant growth in wealthy populations in secondary markets like bologna, verona, and along the adriatic coast, indicating expanding opportunities for luxury real estate marketing.

The foreign HNWI investor segment has grown substantially, with increased interest from north american, middle eastern, and asian investors supplementing the traditional european buyer base. Foreign investment is projected to account for 38% of luxury real estate transactions by value in 2025, up from 31% in 2023.
