Compared to 69% worldwide, 71% of UAE families think they should strategically invest in digital assets like cryptocurrencies, NFTs, or tokenized traditional assets, according to research on ultra-high-net-worth (UHNW) families published today by Standard Chartered Global Private Bank.
These findings position the UAE as one of the wealthiest and most forward-thinking hubs for the adoption of AI and digital technology worldwide. Families in the United Arab Emirates are embracing innovation with confidence and self-control, balancing receptivity to new technology with the methodical governance needed to handle them properly.
Over 300 UHNW families and advisers from major global wealth hubs, such as Singapore, Hong Kong, China, the United Arab Emirates, India, Africa, and London, participated in the study, “The Great Repositioning,” which provided a thorough understanding of how family offices are redefining wealth creation, preservation, and legacy.
Family offices in the UAE are embracing technology in a way that reflects both vision and discipline,” stated Vinay Gandhi, Regional Head of Europe, Middle East, and Africa at Private Banking and Global Head of the South Asian Community. They view AI and digital assets as essential parts of a more cohesive, effective, and resilient wealth ecosystem rather than as speculative instruments. Strong administration and innovative thinking make the UAE one of the world’s most vibrant centers for private wealth.
