02过去一年,中国金融服务行业迎来深刻变革。新“国九条”强化金融为民的理念,推动金融行15、业回归初心,将保护中小投资者权益、满足人民群众日益增长的财富管理需求提上新高度。广大个人投资者的财富健康状况再度成为行业关注的焦点。作为经济发展的中坚力量,新富人群的财富健康对于中国资本市场乃至全社会经济的健康发展至关重要。近年来,房地产的投资属性日渐消退,金融产品供给逐渐成熟、多元,投资复杂性也随之提升。新富人群对美好生活的憧憬伴随着更复杂的财务需求,也面临着市场波动带来的更深层次的挑战。金融机构如何有效帮助这群肩负梦想的投资者成长为自己财富的合格第一责任人、实现对于财富生活的美好愿景,对新富人群的长期财富健康有着深远意义。在此背景下,嘉信理财和上海交通大学上海高级金融学院自 2017 年开16、始携手关注新富人群的财富健康主题,持续为中国市场提供关于新富人群财富健康的专业洞察。双方秉承互利共信的宗旨不断深化合作,在延续指数调研的基础上对热点问题加以关注和思考,持续探索金融机构应该如何为广大新富人群提供实实在在的帮助,并陪伴他们在财富之路上行稳致远。今年的指数显示,在家庭负债增多、市场波动性增强等主客观因素叠加之下,新富人群的财富信心在经历七年持续上升后首次遭遇瓶颈,投资中的保守和短期行为明显,在制定财务规划、聚焦长期目标等方面也有较大的提升空间。尽管存在这些迷茫和犹豫,新富人群在投资参与方面的表现却逆势提升,无论是寻求多元化投资、丰富海外资产配置,还是完善养老规划,新富人群均有不同程17、度的意识提升,也更加期待投资顾问为他们提供更专业的指导和帮助。尽管每年的报告在研究角度上各有侧重,但对金融服务机构的意义却八年来始终如一:从投资者的视角和需求出发,以专业服务为新富人群提供针对性指导,帮助其将积极意识转化为坚实行动,对金融服务机构而言既是义不容辞的责任,也是全新的转型和发展契机。我们诚挚地希望指数系列调研能为行业发展提供参考和借鉴,也期待和各方携手助力新富人群应对挑战,坚持做难而正确的事,以长期财务稳定和健康为逐梦人生之路打下坚实基础。前 言吴飞教授上海高级金融学院丽萨亨特国际市场董事总经理嘉信理财集团03上海高级金融学院和嘉信理财共同创立的“中国新富人群财富健康指数”旨在动态18、追踪新富人群这一推动中国乃至全球未来经济发展的群体对于自身财富健康的认知和变化。基于过去七年的指数调研结果,上海高级金融学院和嘉信理财共同开展了第八年度的调研,并以此得出2024年度的结论。调研的问卷设计、数据搜集和指数制作由全球领先的消费者研究与零售监测公司尼尔森IQ执行。新富人群是指正在走向富裕的消费群体,他们的投资行为和财富健康也因而会对金融市场和投顾行业的未来发展带来重要影响。指数介绍人民币12.5万至100万之间4592人2024年6月5日至6月28日受访者标准受访者人数和分布中国新富人群财富健康指数基于对财富信心、财务规划、资产管理及投资参与四项次指数的综合评估而得出。通过对受访者19、73个问题的调研,这四项指数分别涵盖以下指标:对个人财务状况的满意度、对个人财务增长前景的预期、影响个人财务状况的因素是否有正式的财务规划、是否定期审查财务规划、是否有清晰的时间规划、是否能在既定时间内实现目标是否有风险意识、是否对金融服务费用敏感使用金融服务的多样性、对投资顾问的态度、对数字金融平台的态度小于700万人民币(或约100万美金)可投资资产调研日期编制指标一线城市:2055人二线城市:1552人三线城市:985人成都、杭州、大连、厦门、重庆、武汉上海、北京、广州、深圳南通、石家庄、中山、昆明、襄阳年收入范围财富信心财务规划资产管理投资参与66.0368.2065.9669.73720、2.0272.2070.78607075652017201820192020202120222023202470.51*中国新富人群的财富信心、财务规划和资产管理水平小幅回落,但投资参与水平有一定改善。财富健康指数

7。尽管多元化投资无法完全规避亏损的可能性,但它仍被广泛视为在既定风险水平下提升整体回报的有效办法。此外,适时回顾,并根据自己的风险承受能力和实现财务目标的时间线动态调整投资组合仍然很有必要。嘉信理财49、,https:/

reform over the past year with the introduction of the new“Nine-Point Guidelines.”With a renewed emphasis on people-centered finance,the Guidelines expressly call on the industry to protect the rights and interests of individual in63、vestors,and better meet peoples ever-growing demand for wealth management services.As such,individuals financial well-being has once again become a question of utmost importance.As a powerhouse of economic growth,Chinas rising affluent and their financial well-being have significant impact on the he64、althy development of the countrys capital markets and the broader economy.In recent years,real estate has gradually given way to increasingly complex and diverse financial products as avenues for investment.At the same time,rising expectations for aspirational living standards have complicated the f65、inancial needs of the rising affluent and added to their financial stress,all while market volatility continuously impacts the financial lives.How financial institutions can empower these investors to take ownership of their personal investing and realize their financial aspirations will have far-re66、aching impacts on the long-term financial well-being of this large and influential group.Against this backdrop,Charles Schwab and the Shanghai Advanced Institute of Finance(SAIF)have been focusing on the rising affluents financial well-being and offering professional insights since 2017.For the past67、 eight years,we have continuously deepened our partnership based on mutual interest and trust,expanding from the Index to encompass research on other key industry topics.We remain focused on exploring ways by which financial institutions can contribute to the financial well-being of the rising afflu68、ent and support them on their financial journeys.This year,the Index saw the rising affluents financial confidence decrease for the first time after seven consecutive years of increase.The change is due to a myriad of factors including increased household debt and market volatility.Low tolerance for69、 risk and short-term behavior are prevalent,and there is room for improvement when it comes to financial planning around long-term goals.That being said,the rising affluent are increasingly engaged in wealth management whether by seeking ways to diversify their portfolios through overseas asset allo70、cation or by optimizing retirement plans.As they demonstrate rising awareness of financial issues across the board,the rising affluent are also expressing a growing desire for professional help and guidance.Although each of the eight editions of the Index has focused on different aspects of the risi71、ng affluents financial well-being,the implications for financial services institutions have remained unchanged.This moment of change and opportunity calls on the industry to better understand the needs and aspirations of the rising affluent,and provide professional,tailored,and client-centric servic72、es that support their goals.We hope our findings provide insights for the industry at a pivotal time of transformation.We look forward to working together to support Chinas investors and households,help them address existing shortcomings and secure a solid foundation for long-term financial security73、 and well-being.ForewordWU FeiProfessorShanghai Advanced Institute of

including financial goals,time horizon,risk consideration,and asset allocation strategy,debt is also a key component in financial planning.We generally categorize debt into good debt versus bad debt,with good debt describing things that aim t100、o build your net worth or help you increase your lifetime earnings;bad debt would be borrowing that goes toward a depreciating asset to satisfy short-term needs,or any debt that carries a high interest rate.The rising affluent should actively work toward building an accurate understanding of debt an101、d use good debt wisely to accumulate wealth and achieve financial goals.Overall,the high-income group has a relatively more nuanced understanding of their financial lives and exhibit stronger motivation to take action in planning their financial futures.This is also reflected in other aspects of the102、ir investment behavior,which will be further discussed throughout the report.Wealth management encompasses both assets and debts.Financial institutions should enhance peoples awareness of the role of debt in long term financial planning through balanced investor education,thereby contributing to the103、 rising affluents

the need to ensure short-term liquidity with achieving longer-term growth.Data shows that among respondents who have consulted a fin140、ancial advisor,cash and fixed term deposits account for 51.6%of their average investment portfolios,compared to 65.2%for those who have not.Of respondents who have sought advice from a professional advisor,36.2%report improvements in their investment performance following consultation,while only 4.0141、%report a decline.Is more cash always better in wealth management?Cash serves two main functions in our financial lives:One is liquidity cash that is held flexibly in the form of current savings to support daily expenses.Setting aside a certain amount of cash in an account that is safe and easily ac142、cessible plays a critical role in ones financial health.For families with relatively stable living conditions,the emergency fund should typically be able to cover 3-6 months of essential living expenses,including housing costs,food,transportation,utilities,and medical expenses.Single-income families143、,those in highly specialized jobs,and individuals with irregular incomes might consider increasing allocation in their emergency funds.The other is investment cash that is low-risk,low-return,and therefore makes up a key part of maintaining stability in a portfolio.This could also include cash equiv144、alents such as money market funds.However,holding too much cash due to risk aversion can lead to missed opportunities for long-term returns and harm peoples ability to achieve long-term financial goals.Taking the US market as an example,while the S&P 500 reached its 2009 low on March 6,2009,the inde145、x was up more than 20%from its lows by March 23 and had fully recovered its Great Recession losses by March 2013.Investors who simply bought the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust on the day the S&P 500 bottomed out in 2009 would have enjoyed a total return of more than 500%by early 2023.1 However,many investor146、s struggled to endure the 18-month bear market,reducing their holdings out of panic or risk aversion,and thus missed out on the subsequent rally.Past performance is no guarantee of future
