From the report

"Based on our research, the top factors that encourage wealth growth in a country include:

 Strong safety & security - woman and child safety is particularly important. Based on our recent woman safety index (part of our 2018 Global Wealth Migration Review), the safest countries in Africa are: Mauritius, Botswana and Namibia.

 Strong ownership rights - Zimbabwe offers a case in point as to what happens when ownership rights are stripped – once assets are taken away they tend to lose value as no one is willing to buy anything.

 Strong economic growth - economic growth is usually linked to wealth growth.

 A well-developed banking system and stock market - insures that people invest and grow their wealth locally. Also insures that GDP growth leads to wealth growth.

 Free and independent media - allows for the dissemination of accurate information to investors.

 Low level of government intervention - government tampering in the business sector creates large inefficiencies within an economy. Government owned enterprises and parastatals are also a problem.

 Low income tax and company tax rates - Dubai and Singapore are examples of the power that tax rates can have in encouraging business formation – both have very low tax rates.

 Ease of investment - barriers such as exchange controls inhibit wealth growth.

 Wealth migration - the migration of HNWIs to the country."
