many european cities

asia pacific remains the priciest region

consumption
[100]
experiential luxury food fashion and
[103]
travel
[104]
how would you feel about throwing away
[106]
your laptop
[107]
in 2019 the average airline passenger
[110]
left behind three pounds of waste from
[112]
each flight
[114]
that's roughly equivalent to your
[115]
laptop's weight
[117]
that statistic surprised and concerned
[119]
you right
[120]
this fits with what our report also
[122]
revealed about the continuing growing
[124]
importance of conscious consumption
[127]
nowadays we care about the health of the
[129]
world around us
[130]
and our own well-being we all want to
[133]
know where our food comes from
[134]
how to move from fast fashion to slow
[137]
fashion
[138]
and what are more environmentally
[140]
friendly transport options
[142]
and we're willing to spend more much
[145]
more
[146]
so you should pay attention to the
[147]
factors that affect your purchasing
[149]
power
[149]
and your wealth in real terms take the
[153]
u.s
[153]
for example if we look at the past 40
[156]
years
[157]
inflation was less than three percent
[159]
annual on average for the normal
[161]
consumer
[162]
while for the wealthy it was almost five
[164]
percent
[166]
the compounding of these price increases
[168]
shows you the erosion
[170]
of purchasing power if you held
[173]
all your money in cash over the last 40
[175]
years
[176]
your purchasing power would have been
[178]
cut in half
[179]
every 23 years on average for the
[182]
wealthy
[183]
this only took 13 years in other words
[187]
the 100 that bought you your luxury
[189]
basket
[190]
in 1982 would only buy you a tenth of
[193]
that today
[194]
therefore prepare by having an active
[198]
investment management strategy to fight
[200]
against this real inflation
[202]
make sure your asset allocation is in
[204]
line with your risk profile
[206]
cash should not be your default asset
[209]
allocation
[210]
stay invested when you understand what
[213]
affects your purchasing power
[215]
you can deploy the right wealth
[216]
management strategies to maintain your
[219]
current lifestyle
[220]
what about for the future did you know
[223]
that the most money is lost when you
[225]
transfer
[226]
it from one generation to the next find
[229]
out how you can protect your wealth for
[230]
generations to come
[232]
nowadays families are international with
[235]
business interests in multiple countries
[237]
loved ones scattered worldwide and often
[240]
with very complex family constellations
[243]
there are three strategies to preserve
[245]
your wealth over generations
[248]
firstly structure your wealth well
[251]
have an overview of all the assets cash
[253]
portfolios with the banks
[255]
incentive plans real estate
[257]
participations in businesses as well as
[259]
art
[260]
and other collectibles and not only
[262]
those owned by the principal of the
[264]
family but also by the spouse
[266]
be clear on who actually owns the assets
[269]
and who can exercise powers over them
[272]
and who and how fast somebody can take
[275]
over in case of an emergency
[277]
secondly align the family if the family
[281]
stays together
[282]
so we'll well encourage an open dialogue
[285]
have the difficult discussions
[286]
be open to different views and values
[289]
especially those of the other
[291]
generations
[292]
depending on the individual needs
[294]
develop a family governance framework
[296]
with family charters and councils or
[299]
even put the wealth education program in
[301]
place
[302]
thirdly have a clear succession strategy
[304]
in place
[305]
start early it's going to take time to
[308]
have all the necessary discussions
[310]
and to develop a long-term plan make
[313]
sure the formal requirements are taken
[314]
care of
[315]
